CD Sunday Challenge - anything goes #113

Hi,

Time for another challenge at the CD Sunday challenge blog,  this fortnight it is me who is hosting, and as usual it is anything goes as long as it’s from a CD, USB or digital material 

My card is for a friend who will be 80 next month,  they don’t look at my blog so I can post this early,  I used a download off Debbi Moore’s web site to make this card,  everything came from the download apart from the silver numbers and I matted the image onto silver bushed Miri card by Hunkydory.

CD Sunday Plus challenge has a Facebook page for those who would like to enter the challenge and do not have a blog,   here is a link to the page

 

I hope you will visit the CD Sunday Plus Challenge site, and remember if you want to enter the challenge you must use something from a CD, USB or digital material no matter how small and let us know where and what you used the material from,   and that it is a card or a project.    Here is a link to CD Sunday Plus Challenge blog  we would be pleased to see you.

I hope you are having a lovely weekend

Centaurus Earrings


 Hi,

These earrings were designed by Lillian Tat lace,  they are three circles which are joined by placing a circle in a circle,  which I did three times,  they are unusual and look very different,  I used up the left over thread from my Cal Celtic snowflakes.

Colours used was ice blue and medium blue Lizbeth thread no 20.  I will be doing some more in different colours.

Hope you are enjoying the heat,  we had some heavy rain today as it’s the start of Glastonbury this week,  I am sure those arriving and setting up their tents,  it’s over 1,000 acres this year and there will be 200,000, festival goers. The site is bigger than the city of Bath,  with Elton John headlining on Sunday night.  I will be watching him on tv as I could not cope with that many people and noise.

CD Sunday Challenge - Anything goes # 112


Hi,

Time for another challenge at CD Sunday,  and as always it’s anything goes,   our host for this fortnight is Jo.  Update Jo at the moment is ill, and unable to host this fortnight so Carol has stepped in as the host this fortnight.  I wish Jo a speedy recovery and hope she s back with us soon.

 I have done something different,  even if it did not work our quite as I thought,  this is a new shape card called a fence card,  the backing paper came from Click print and go CD by My craft studio,  I used an image that was a free gift from Hunkydory members club sometime ago of a ladybird,  The ivy die is from Joanna Sheen.    I finished off the card with some rub ons by La Blanche,  I put a small spray of roses in the bottom corner which I matched with the flower in the image,  and a small white handmade bow

CAL Celtic snowflake by Muskaan


 Hi,

At moment we are experiencing some beautiful weather, although thunderstorms are forecasted for weekend,  I just hope this not all the summer we will get and once it starts raining it will stop so the sun can put it’s hat on.

In May Muskaan designed the first two rounds of a snowflake,  it was left to us the tatters around the world to design the rest.

Well these are my efforts,  so far on Facebook just tatting the first one has received 229 likes and hearts.  


This was the first one,  I used white and medium blue Lizbeth thread 





This was my second with white and ice blue again Lizbeth thread no 20, I made the ring at the top a little bigger which I do prefer 






This is my third one I used the medium blue and ice blue Lizbeth thread 





I am very pleased with these snowflakes and I am making these my June snowflakes in the Facebook challenge

Have a lovely weekend

Margaret
