CD Sunday Challenge - A La Mode

TAG YOU'RE IT! Top Three

Hello and here I am again a day late posting last weeks choice for our top three, well I say our choice but what I really mean is Jocelyn's choice. The tag you're it challenge was quite a surprise for me because I don't really like tags much, so, seeing your designs has made me think again and I will try to use them a lot more.

1. Sue (No. 11)
2. Vron (No. 12)
3. Margaret (No. 5)
 
Now Jocelyn has a bit of a prize for our top spot so just the usual please drop us an email to the address at the top of the page and it will be wqinging it's way to you in no time.

Good morning bloggers and challengers, well it's Sunday again so another new challenge for you all to make you think and as it's the 1st Sunday of the month we are being sponsored.
This week we are sponsored by the lovely Ooh La La, now they have been very generous and sponsored us before so we know that you like what they do because the last time they joined us was a popular challenge. This time they have been very generous to the team and given us some images from one of their latest cd's Shoes in Bloom 2. We have really enjoyed using the designs and know that you will want to be in with a chance of winning a cd of your choice, so if you've had your eye on one of the wonderful cd's in the range now is the chance to be in with a chance of getting it.

Last week we said goodbye to Beryl who was with us for two months, we did this for two reasons, one was December was only two challenges and the other reason was we loved her designs. now this month we have asked a previous guest to come back and do it all again and I know you will be blown away with some of the designs she has in store for you.

This week we will be doing A La Mode, the whole of the team has used one of the Ooh La La designs but feel free to interpret the theme as you wish.

We will start as usual with our guest and this month we have the lovely Jen from Time Out Crafting with us so here we go.

I hope you like what we've done for you and that you will be able to come and join us after all without you there wouldn't be a challenge.

CD Sunday Challenge - Tag You're It!

Top Three for the Zodiac challenge
Well I've just made in time today to give you the top three from last week's challenge 'Zodiac'
I have chosen my top three and you lot sure had me going backwards and forwards because I can honestly say I liked each and everyone of the entries.
I  have chosen not by who had the best technique or the straightest lines on the matting and layering but by which cards jumped out and said look at me.
My first choice was the most difficult but here is the list, and can you email me with your addy Bren as I will have a little something for you by way of a small token for joining us.
1st Number 2 Bren
2nd Number 13 Trish
3rd Number 12 Linda

Hello everyone and welcome to another week on CD Sunday, this is the last week for January so it's also the last week for Beryl our lovely guest designer for December and January. Beryl has inspired us with some wonderful cards and just wait until you see this weeks, she's ending her run with a bang.

Last week we asked you to make something with a zodiac theme and although I did wonder if it would be popular you came up trumps so I didn't need to have worried, once again your entries were inspiring and I noticed a few things that I will borrow from time to time.

Now I'm a bit of a numpty as I totally forgot to organise anyone for the guest spot next month so if you fancy having a go and can work at short notice give me a shout on my personal email which is starcyl2@gmail.com and I'll get back to you straight away.

Now onto this week and it's Jocelyn's turn to choose the theme which as you've seen is Tag You're IT! now you may think it's an unusual topic but once you've seen the teams cards you will see it's not so difficult so please have a go and give Jocelyn something to choose her top three from.

We'll start this weeks cards with Beryl, I'm sure you'll love the whole teams ideas.

CD Sunday - Zodiac

Enchantment Top Three

Hopefully Blogger will behave and you'll get to see the top three this week which has been chosen by Christine. Now the lucky lady is in Spain at the moment but she wanted to say that she will still have a little gift for the top spot but you may have a bit of wait for it as she doesn't get home until April. She tells me that the choice was as usual quite difficult but in the end she has narrowed it down to :
Number 9      Pauline
Number 12     Caroline
Number 6       Jen
 
Well done ladies and  if you haven't already got it displayed take the top three banner for your blog.
 
Good Sunday morning and welcome to another challenge here on CD Sunday.

I can't believe how quickly the weeks are flying by and before we know it spring will be here and we'll be able to get out into the garden and repair the ravages of winter. For now though I suggest we all just stay in and craft, and hopefully join us for this weeks challenge.

Last week we had some beautiful entries so thank you for those and Christine will be choosing her top three during the next couple of days. Talking of the top three we seem to have had a bit of a glitch and the top three for Sea Life didn't appear. I think everytime Blogger gets some sort of enhancement things go haywire for a while.
So,  sorry for the ommission but Wendy did choose a top three and here is the list:

 14 Emma Woods
13 Hazel
3  Sue

Please display the top three logo on your blogs.

Now onto this weeks challenge, which is my choice of Zodiac. I have quite a few cards to make and  I know that people like to get cards with their star sign on so it's a bit of an indulgence really.
We still have our lovely lady from the scottish highlands with us and as usual she has produced another stunner of a card so we will start with her again this week.

So there you have the design teams interpretation but I'm sure you can all show us something equally as stunning but please remember to use a little something or everything from a cd.
