CD Sunday Plus Challenge # 94 - Hosted by Jocelyn

 Good morning

Like so many of us, I was deeply saddened to hear of the death of our Queen.  I have always been a fan and very aware, and appreciative, of everything she has done for us.

When it was her Platinum Jubilee earlier this year, I wanted to make a card to send.  I remembered this lovely image from Faye Whittaker's cd-rom by Joanna Sheen and created a decoupaged card.  I triple-matted the image onto red, white and then blue card and added some die-cut bunting which was cut from Centura Pearl card.

The sentiment was created in Word and printed in silver text.


I'm sure you can imagine my excitement when, a few weeks later, an envelope arrived from Buckingham Palace.  Inside was this card!




I will treasure the card (and the envelope) always.

This card is my DT card for our new challenge over at CD Sunday Plus.   As always, we would love to have you join us.

Full details, along with how to enter, can be found on the challenge blog.  You'll also get to see my teamies inspiration for the challenge too.

CD Sunday Plus Challenge # 93 - Hosted by Margaret

 Good Morning

Welcome to a new challenge at CD Sunday Plus Challenge.  We look forward to seeing your entries.

I can't get my head around the fact that it's September already.  I had a rare visit to the shops yesterday and was shocked to see how many Christmas items are already on display!

I'm sad that the days are already so much shorter!  It will soon be time for my youngest daughter to go back to University.  This will be her 4th and final year.  I love having her home and will miss her.  So will Bailey!!

Anyway, onto my card.  This time I have used an image and papers from the Paper Boutique Paper Pantry Collect Volume 6, Farmyard Friends.  I turned the image into decoupage.  She's very cute isn't she!

I used card from Creative Crating World for my card base and the mats.  The sentiment is a Lily of the Valley stamp.



Thanks for visiting my blog.  Please leave me a comment so I know you've been here!
