CD Sunday - 'Beautiful Blooms' - chosen by Jocelyn


Before we talk about this weekend and our new challenge I have a confession to make. I am afraid that there has been a '???' on the Admin front (leave you to fill in the word) and the posting last weekend of Wynn's Top 3 wasn't done. So - very, very late - as promised here is  the Top 3 for the last but one  challenge which was 'Anything Goes'  and was chosen by Wynn.

"So many lovely entries has made this very difficult to judge. After lots of visits to your blogs I have made my decision."

Here it is:
1st - Jan Hodson (Facebook entry)

I loved the tonal colour palette and the layout. Lots of interest had been created with the stunning design.
2nd - Lisa (wishcraft)

Now I’m a ‘sucker’ for anything different and this hidden message design ticked all the boxes. The image is adorable too.
 3rd - Pauline

I loved all the interest created by the different layers of designer papers and the colour palette. The image of the Robin is stunning too. 

Congratulations Jan. Please contact us at cdsunday2@gmail.com to claim your prize and together with Lisa and Pauline grab  the appropriate logos from the side bar. Don't forget Jan to send in your address with your claim.

My sincere apologies to the Top 3 and to Wynn and now onto the new challenge.

 
Good Morning and welcome to another challenge with CD Sunday. This time the theme is 'Beautiful Blooms' -  which has been chosen by Jocelyn.   I think that this is the  perfect time  for this challenge especially as the blooms and blossoms seem to have been extra special this year.

Thank you for joining in with Margaret and her Art Deco challenge and we will be posting her Top 3 on 3rd June (fingers crossed).

Now we would like to show you the team’s ideas on ‘Beautiful Blooms’ - starting with Jocelyn of course and here they are:

CD Sunday - 'Art Deco' - chosen by Margaret


Good Morning and welcome to another challenge with CD Sunday. This time the theme is Art Deco which has been chosen by Margaret.  I think that Art Deco is always a popular theme and so we hope to see many of you joining in with some beautiful creations. There are many Art Deco CD Roms out there so no excuses.
Thank you for joining in with Wynn and her ‘Anything Goes’ challenge and we will be posting her Top 3 on 20th May.
As well as starting off Margaret’s challenge today we are also announcing the winners of our Birthday Challenge.  You’ll have to imagine the trumpet chords I put in here…..

And the winner is…. Lisa Bird with her 'West Highland Terriers'


And in 2nd place is …….Beverley Hassell with her 'Trumpeter'


Well done to you both.  Your prizes will be sent out to you as soon as possible. We just need you to do the usual claim with your addresses via the Blog email.
The team were blown away by the number of entries especially via Facebook. We really hope that you will all continue to join in our challenges.  It was so gratifying to see so many lovely and varied cards even though the sketch was the same for all.

Now we would like to show you the team’s ideas on Art Deco – starting with Margaret:

CD Sunday - 'Anything Goes' - chosen by Wynn


Good Morning everyone.  Now that the Birthday celebrations are all over we must get back to our usual challenges and Wynn has chosen ‘Anything Goes’ for us.   But before we do that we as a team would like to thank those who entered our Birthday Challenge -  and I would like to thank all those who created such wonderful cards using my sketch.  We will be announcing the winner on 13th May   not today as I mistyped at the beginning of the challenge.
The team have made some great cards for this challenge and as the title suggests  ‘Anything Goes’ - as long as a CD has been used somewhere in the making.  As always the rules are printed fully in the sidebar.
We have something extra to say  on this challenge posting and before we go on to show you our examples we wish to say:

  "It has come as wonderful surprise to us how many entries we are now getting to our challenges and although we are pleased and flattered we have decided that we must now have a per person per challenge limit of 3.
Please may we also remind that all work must be new for each challenge."
On with the examples and ideas from the team..    We will start with Wynn of course as it is her challenge:





I think you will agree the team have given you a great selection of ideas. So please join in and have some fun.
We now have some entries via Facebook.

From Jan Hodson
 

From Beverley Hassell
From Maria Bunker
