Ruth:  I've kept my card clean and simple and merged two images from the Winnie Heroes collection to create my card.  Coloured with Promarkers plus a stethescope charm from my stash and embroidery thread.  The sentiment is from the collection too.

Tasha: This time we were challenged to use more than 1 image to make a thank you card, so I decided to follow on from the theme of my last card and went full on Rainbow again!

I used a Dr & two sentiments from the Heroes Pack (which is still free!) to create this single layer panel.
I coloured both the Dr and the hearts in with a mixture of Copics, Brushmarkers & Altenew Artist's Markers, then added some sequins and Nuvo drops! 🧡💛💚💙💜

Week 19 Anything Goes Craft & Card Making Challenge


We hope you're all staying safe and keeping healthy right now - crafting is amazing therapy!

So let's see what the Design Team have been up to this week!
Nelly  With my daughter being a carer in a care home, working tirelessly with covid positive residents  it inspired me to create this card for her to cheer her up, isnt she just adorable !

Ann-Marie  -  For my card this week I used one of the fab images from the Winnie Heroes bundle and coloured her up with copics. The sweet background paper is from 
Winnie Celebrations 3 paper collection.

Ruth:  I kept it very clean and simple and went with one of the Winnie Heroes images, printed it twice and coloured with Promarkers.  I made the head wobbly by curling some thick wire and sticking to the bases with glossy accents.  I've added a stethoscope charm too.
Judy: I've created an interactive card for this week. It is a pull tab flip card using one of the images from the Winnie Heroes Download Bundle. The background paper is from 

Cinderella here with a shaker card. My card is a Big Thank You to the people who are our live savers in this strange time that we are living in. And I put a star shaker in it. I love Glitter do you? The digi on my card is DoctorThe text is from the lovely free gifts from Polkadoodles Winnie Heroes bundle...

We are also very pleased to welcome our newest member Tasha to the Polkadoodles design team!!

Tasha: I love the new Heroes collection; I used the 3 characters to make a line of healthcare workers, (mirroring some to disguise that the characters are repeated.)
I coloured them using Copic markers and put them on the front of a full panel rainbow shaker!!  Subtlety definitely wasn't my aim with this, but I wanted to start my time with Polkadoodles with a rainbow bang!!

Welcome to the team Tasha! 

Fabulous projects from the team this week, we hope we've inspired you all again : )
