Let's see the inspiration from the team - we've been creating lots of lovely inspiration for the coming season!...   

Pam ~ I've selected three packages to incorporate into my design today. Coloring Scene 4 is my background, Santa Stop Here Bella Christmas Bear is the next layer, and Lantern Bella Christmas Bear is added as the top layer. I used Copic markers for coloring, and added a thin line of Diamond Stickles around the fur and on the snow lines. The image is triple mounted with the centre patterned paper from the Spring Surprise Craft paper pack.


Nunzia: for today's challenge I thought of a winter scene with this cute Cable-car Theo-penguin stamp. I've duplicated the stamps in different sizes and coloured them with alcohol markers. The background is blended with distress oxide inks using a leftover die-cut heart as a stencil. The sentiment is part of Wings-of-love sentiments bundle.

Rachael - Hello everyone. I am in love with this stamp set called Jingle all the way - I have used it so many times to make really cute and contemporary cards. I decided for this that Santa and his sleigh were going to be bright pink - I mean, why not?


Wendy - I love the Beary Christmas release, I had so much fun colouring this cute Bella Christmas Tree printable with my Copics.  I added the trees in the background too...

Naomi  - This week I used Winnie White Christmas collection, with all the snow around this week this is just how i feel!

Janelle - I used the Beary Christmas digital collection this week to make a circle card, I hope you like it...


Wow!! Lots of gorgeous inspiration for you this week to use - we hope you'll share what you make with your Polkadoodles products on our Social Media!

Let's see the inspiration from the team - we've been creating lots of lovely inspiration for the coming season!...  


Judy: I've created an ornament for my DT project this week. The focal image is Santa's Suit - Winnie North Pole, which I colored with Prismacolor Pencils and fussy cut. The base of the ornament is a scalloped circle die cut. I fashioned a rosette for the next layer using one of the
printable papers from the Christmas Joy Digiscrap Download BundleTwo more layers die cut circles were added. I die cut a tree using Layering Trees Cutting Dies and placed it behind the focal, which is popped with foam tape. I added a piece of sparkly twine to finish.

Renske - The design team was tasked with making something other than a card. I made a tag using the digital stamp 'North Pole - Winnie North Pole' and the digital paper 'Theo Penguin Paper Bundle 1'. I used sentiments from the set 'Christmas Greetings, Quotes, and Sentiments' and added dimension to the tag by colouring the edges with blue ink and adding two snow hills. I coloured the stamp with alcohol markers, added paper glaze for dimension and used glitter pen for shine. I decorated the tag with embellishments resulting in a festive tag that really captures the spirit of the holidays!

Tinne - Hi everyone! Tinne here and today I want to show you a gift tag that I made. I cut the tag out using a die from my stash, and covered the edges and top with low tack tape. I applied some Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide ink on the tag, heavy on the bottom, lighter when I went up. I splattered the tag with water, dried it, and splattered it with Lucky Clover Distress Oxide ink and white acrylic paint. I also cut out a snow hill using a curved die. I put some foam tape behind it and glued it on the tag. I colored the Which Way Theo Penguin digital stamp using the following Copic colour combo’s:
  • Scarfs and pole: R39, R37, R35
  • Blush cheeks: R32, R30
  • Penguins: W10, W8, W6, W4
  • Shadows penguins: W1, W0, W00
  • Shadow in the snow: G00, G0000
  • Beak penguins: Y35, Y32
I put foam tape behind my image, and glued it on the tag. As a finishing touch, I gave the tag a red and white ribbon and two little silver bells. I hope you like it!

Deborah  - Hello everyone! This week I am excited to be working on my Christmas gift tags. For my tag, I selected the adorable "Snowy Footprints" uncolored digi from the Winnie White Christmas Collection. I just love the sweet image of Winnie with her animal friends. For the background, I added a printable paper and a sentiment from the Baked with Love Bundle. This bundle is a "one stop shop". You get great digital images, papers, sentiments, embellishments, tags, and design sheets all at a discounted price. Listed below are the Copic marker colors that I used if you would like to color her using the colors that I selected...
  • R: 08, 27, 29, 39, 59
  • BG: 10, 11, 13, 32, 57, 72, 75, 78
  • B: 000, 01
  • RV: 11
  • C: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8
  • E: 000, 00, 11, 31, 33, 70, 74

Natalia - This time I've prepared a small wooden hoop with a Christmas message. The most commonly used colours for this occasion are red, green, and white. So, I decorated it using coloured printable Poinsettia Wreath from one of our latest collections.
It's simple to make and would be a nice home decoration!



Sabina - Hello crafty friends. Today I'm sharing my Christmas tag. I've used papers from Gingerbread Holly Papers set 1 and Distress ink papers plain set. Stamp  Polar Bear - Gnome Festive Fun is coloured with markers and the sentiment is part of Christmas greetings, quotes, sentiments bundle.

Enrica - Hello everyone! For my project this week I made a gift box featuring the fun Winnie Hang On digital stamp colored with Copic. I added Word Art sentiments from the Christmas Joy bundle, patterned paper from the Helga Hippo Paper Heaven 4 bundle, a little tag and a ribbon. I would be particularly happy to receive a box like this, especially now that I have discovered that candy canes are delicious!


Jane Robinson - With the festive season almost upon us, how about a quick and simple way to make your own gift tags? I used the Beary Christmas collection. It's a collection I paid for with my own money before becoming a member of the design team. I bought the whole collection and that means I'm able to play around with the pre-coloured images to my hearts content. When time is of the essence, go for pre-coloured. If you have an hour to spare, go for a digi.
Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Love 
Jane R xoxo

Let's see the inspiration from the team - we've been creating lots of lovely inspiration for the coming season!...  

Nunzia: A tag is always a good way to match a gift, so I decided to colour, with alcohol markers, the cute Noel-christmas-mouse and add just a few details. A strip Winnie White Christmas digi paper bundle and a sentiment from Winnie celebrations Sentiments digi-kit 1.




Merja - This time I used cutie Bauble Hat Bella Christmas Bear image and coloured it with alcohol markers and some white gel pen. I also added some glitter glue on the hat, let it dry and then fussy cut the bear. The circle background I cut with Stitched and Pierced Nested Circle die set and then I stamped the sentiment from Wonderful Christmas Stamp Set. The background paper is from Set 1 Christmas Papers. Lastly I added a few acrylic diamonds.




Rachael - Hi crafting friends. This week I thought I would use one of the beautiful new releases to make a Christmas card but in non traditional colours. I know poinsettias are not blue, but that’s the great thing about craft you can make things whatever colour you like! For this I used the beautiful new poinsettia-wreath- combined with an embossed background and silver card it makes a stunning Christmas card.




Pam - Today I'm sharing Polkadoodles Winter Smiles Ice Skating Snowmen using a color palette provided for our Design Team of pinks, blues and browns. I started by layering the skating couple on Polkadoodles paper from the Love Always Collection, selecting one that would match the color palette. After printing, I Copic colored this cute couple and added the snow mounds covered in Star Dust Stickles with the 'Let It Snow' sentiment in the center. I added the coordinating blue mat and secured the layers to the card base, then added the organza bow to finish my card




Wendy
- Hi everyone! I know it's not even Thanksgiving yet, but I'm in the Christmas mood! One of my all time favorite Polkadoodles bundles is the Winnie White Christmas Big Kahuna Kit. It's absolutely cuteness overload! For my project this week, I chose the Time to Give digi stamp. I love creating backgrounds and filling my cards with color, but there are so many adorable characters in this stamp that it's really all you need to create a beautiful card. I just love Winnie and all of her adorable friends. How are your Christmas cards coming along? It will be here before you know it. We would love to see all of your creations. Thank you for looking!
