#7 Anything Goes using a CD

Challenge #7 with Carol hosting. Before I show you my card this time did you all remember to put your clocks forward. Spring Forward! We have had some beautiful sunny days here in Bexhill - long may it continue. 

I've used a backing paper and image from the really sweet Precious Petals CD by Joanna Sheen using photos from award winning photographer Valerie Tabor Smith. I just added some ribbon and a bow to finish it off. Perfect to celebrate the arrival of a baby girl. The proud parents have called her Hazel Rose.

#6 Anything Goes Using a CD

Challenge #6 for this year and this time I'm hosting!

I've used an image by La Pashe - The Big One. There are lots of great images on this CD along with backing papers and sentiments. The main character is decoupaged. I used a couple of mats and layers to mount the background scene and verse. Perfect for any golf mad men - my husband being one of them! :-)

#5 Anything Goes using a CD

A new challenge -3 March 2019 at CD Sunday Challenge Blog. March already! How did that happen? This year is going by so quickly already. 

Our theme is Anything Goes, all we ask is that you use a CD somewhere in your design and let us know which CD you used. You will find all the details of how to enter and play along with us over on the main blog here.

I've used an image and backing paper from Once Upon a Fairytale CD by Debbi Moore. 

The gold paper I used to cover the entire card is from some very old stash - I think Kings Foils (?)

The elegant lady is decoupaged (not too difficult to cut out) and I used a strip of the backing paper across the middle of the card to layer her onto. The red border strips are cut from a Tattered Lace die. The sentiment is also from the CD.

I've used an image and backing paper from The Wrinklies CD by La Pashe. The Happy Birthday is a die from Crafter's Companion. I like the different fonts for the different letters. Gives it a quirky look. 

#3 Anything goes using a CD

Here we go with a new challenge - February 2019 at CD Sunday Challenge Blog. This year is going too quickly already.

Our theme is Anything Goes, all we ask is that you use a CD somewhere in your design and let us know which CD you used. You will find all the details of how to enter and play along with us over on the main blog here.

I've used the Downton Abbey triple disc CD from Crafter's Companion for the image on this card. I've kept the design simple for this male birthday card. The die cuts are both from Crafter's Companion. 

#2 Anything Goes with a CD

Here we go with the second challenge of 2019 at CD Sunday Challenge Blog. We are sticking with Anything Goes for the theme, all we ask is that you use a CD somewhere in your design and let us know which CD you used. You will find all the details of how to enter and play along with us over on the main blog here.

I decided to make a twisted easel card for this birthday card. I've got a friend who loves all things teddy bear related so this will be perfect for her birthday. 

The decoupage image and papers along with the sentiments are all from Debbi Moore Designs CD Shabby Chic Vintage Bears.

The decoupage was easy to cut out with no fiddly pieces. Hopefully you can see all the layers from this side shot. 

#1 Anything Goes with a CD

Happy New Year!

Here we go with the first challenge of 2019 at CD Sunday. Anything Goes so feel free to join in. We just need to know which CD you have used to create your card.

I've used a CD by Dolly Dimples Crafts called Alice in Fabulous Land. This CD allows you to design your own image using the elements on the CD and then also creates a series of matching backing papers with the same design. The die is a new one for me from a company I've not come across before called Jeanine's Art. Will definitely be ordering a few more of these!

I think the colours show up a bit better in this one.
