CD Sunday challenge - Anything goes #129

 

Hi,

As i write this and this is a scheduled post,  it’s pouring with rain again,  blowing a gale,  it’s been a very wet winter and going into spring,   roll on summer,  I have had enough of winter can we just jump into summer now.  

Today is St Patricks day so Happy St  Patrick’s day to all my followers. I hope you have a lovely day,  I did a post yesterday for St Patricks day,  I know it was a day early but I don’t like two different posts in one day.

It’s time for another challenge at CD Sunday,  and this fortnight the host is me.

For  this  challenge I made a card from a CD I don’t remember using before,  just shows how many I have  anyway the image and the backing paper are from Carnival of Colour by Ooh La La Creations,  I matted the image onto gold brushed Miri card from Hunkydory,  cut out the daisies from another sheet and decoupaged them onto the daisies in the picture,  as Meg would say fussy cut and it really was a fussy cutting time, and added  a blue bow.  

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.

Happy St Patricks Day


 Hi,

Yes I am a day early and St Patricks day is tomorrow but I have another post going onto my blog tomorrow so as I hate two different posts on one day,  I am putting this one a day early.

                            Happy St Patricks Day to all my Irish followers

I made this tatted clover leaf,  it’s my own pattern I threw together,   I am calling it an Onion Ring clover leaf,  it’s in development as you could say,  needs a few finishing touches perhaps a few more stitches to make it bigger,   but for today it will do.   It’s onion ring leaves and a spiral chain for the stalk.  I  used Lizbeth no 20 thread in Christmas green mix,  I am running out of dark green,  so I used this varigated thread instead.  I will write my pattern out at some point

Have a lovely weekend,  I am away this weekend

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Hi

Happy St Patrick's Day,   for all my Irish followers I hope you have a nice day.
This is a pattern by Mariya Davydova  the link I have to her blog  is mariyas-tatting-blogspot.com,  it did not work when I tried it but it might work for you.  She called the pattern clover and was done with four leaves but it did not lay right so I did it with three and it did lay down,  with a spiral chain as a stalk.  I know its the wrong green as I used Lizbeth thread no 20 christmas green mix as it was on the shuttles.
Have a great day
                                Hugs
                             Margaret

Happy St Patricks Day



Hi,                                                                                               Happy St Patricks Day,   this is one of the first pieces of tatting I have done since my accident,  its not perfect,  I am trying to do a little bit each day even if its only a clover leaf.   This is a pattern by Mariya Davydova  the link I have to her blog  is mariyas-tatting-blogspot.com,  it did not work when I tried it but it might work for you.  She called the pattern clover and was done with four leaves but as you can see by the picture on the left  it did not lay right so I did another one with three leaves as above.  Nice pattern and easy to do.
I used Lizbeth thread no 20 Christmas Green mix.  I know it looks the wrong green for a clover leaf but I had this on the shuttle.  Lovely to be tatting again but the pain after a while, so for the time being just small pieces until my fingers get back to normal.
We got back over the weekend,  but I will have to go back up to Sheffield again very soon,  we had bad news this time and it's just a question of getting our heads around it. More about it later in the week,  if you don't get a comment on your blog rest assured I am with you in spirt.
                           Hugs
