CD Sunday Challenge - Luck of the Irish!/St Patrick's Day

Good morning everyone hope things are well in your part of the world!  We have quite a bit going on today so take a seat and let's go.

Firstly I want to say thank you to everyone who joined in last week, not so many, so you don't like all of our challenges but we're onto another so hopefully you will enjoy this one and as it is a sponsored one there is a lovely prize to go with it this week.

This week we are sponsored by Art of Craft, and there is a great prize of a £20 voucher to spend on anything from the shop.

Guest Designers

We need you this week, if you fancy being a guest with us here at CD Sunday then please get in touch, we have chosen our guests up to May but are now looking for more willling folks to join in with us and be part of the team for a month. All it will involve is that you make at least two cards per month, of course we would pefer it if you could manage every week of the month you are doing but we know life gets in the way of crafting at times. The email address is at the top of the blog and we are very good at answering people (well Christine is) so come on down and join us, we love company. Of course you could always just add a comment at the bottom to let us know you are interested and we'll get back to you.

March's Guest

This month we have the lovely Beryl from Beryl's Place and she has been good to us this week and given us two cards, both of them are fabby so I do hope you will pop over and visit her and leave her a bit of love.

Luck of The Irish!/St Patrick's Day
Now onto the theme for this week, with St Patricks day being so close we decided that now is a good time to do a suitable card, not everyone is into sending cards for this occasion so we thought that the theme should be something Irish, now we all know the saying 'luck of the Irish' so thought we'd go with this.  Our team has had some fun with this one and hopefully you will too, so it's over to you and we are really looking forward to seeing what you come up with, you could go with the whole St Patrick theme, or maybe something Irish or even just send a bit of luck. Just remember to include something from a cd or you won't be eligible for the draw, and most importantly - have fun.

CD Sunday Challenge - Art Nouveau

Hello everyone and how are you this lovely Sunday morning, we were blown away by your fabulous creations last week so thank you for taking the time and effort to join us.

Well February has certainly flown by and we are on our last week with our first guest for this year,  Janet has done some super things for us and hopefully she will be back later in the year if we can persuade her.

We have really enjoyed having Janet as a guest and hopefully you have too, thanks for everything Janet  and watch for the email!  Join us next week when we have a new guest joining us to show what she can do.

Now onto the challenge for this week, we have decided to go easy on you all again and give you a great challenge, this week we are using

ART NOUVEAU

Now the usual rules will apply, use a little something from a cd or do the whole thing with a cd, we don't mind as long there is a cd in there somewhere.  Our design team have had a great time thinking up things to set you going, so do get those cd's out of their cases and have a play.

CD Sunday Challenge - Get ahead - Get a Hat

Good morning all you lovely crafters out there, yet another week has flown by and we are back to Sunday and another challenge. Firstly I want to say thank you to those of you who joined us last week, not as many as expected considering we gave you a fairly easy task but perhaps you all want to be challenged a bit more.

This week we have had a bit of fun and our theme  is

Get ahead - Get a Hat

We still have our lovely guest Janet with us and she has come up trumps again, I do hope you will pop over to see her blog and give her a bit of support.

I am looking forward to seeing all your creations with this one and our team have all had very different ideas as you will see, remember to use something from a cd and link back to us.
