#132 Anything Goes - CD Sunday Plus Challenge

I succumbed to the current craze doing the rounds on Facebook and made a fractured card. It was a lot easier to make than it looks and you can use up some of your small left over pieces of patterned paper. I searched YouTube for a tutorial on how to make this.

I love Steampunk designs so chose papers from the Steampunk Romance Collection by Creative Crafting World.

Items used:

Creative Crafting World: The Paper Boutique The Paper Pantry Volume VI USB Steampunk Romance Collection. This was originally in paper form but then put onto USB. Dark brown adhesive pearls also from CCW.

Thin white peel offs from my stash.

The challenge will close on Saturday 11th May 2024 at 1pm.

Don't forget that the CD Sunday Plus Challenge is now about making items using something printed from a craft CD Rom, USB or digital download. You can use other craft items on your card/project, such as a stamp or die, but you must include something printed from the new categories. You must also make a physical item and not a digital one. In your blog post/Facebook entry you must give the name of the printed item you've used.

We also have a Face Book page if you want to enter but don’t have a blog - The CD Sunday Plus Challenge.

#131 Anything Goes - CD Sunday Plus Challenge

This is the second card I made in January when I had some spare time and had a play/experiment with some of my rarely used stash such as stencils, texture pastes, paints and wooden embellishments.

I made this for someone who likes to sew and alters clothes to fit herself, her daughter and her two granddaughters.

I sized the main image to fit in the middle of the larger card and used green texture paste through a stencil. The central panel was layered onto white card leaving a small border so it would stand out and then raised on 3d foam tape. I printed the pale pink paper and put it back through to print the text on top. I lightened the text so it didn’t overpower the backing paper. The central panel was finished off with a dress form die cut, lace effect paper ribbon and pink pearls.

I edged the base card with a button themed border die cut from pink card and layered onto white card. 

 Items used:

Digital Craftorium Eclectic Mix USB: Main image and backing paper.

Crafts Too:  Texture paste – I forgot to make a note of the two colours used!

Couture Creations: Bodice die.

Tonic Studios: Button and Star Strip Die Set.

From stash: Paper lace effect border and pearls.

Script/text downloaded free from internet.
