Wk 44 Anything Goes Craft & Card Making Challenge

Have you seen all our latest releases? We're having a Halloween takeover on our social media with a great giveaway so make sure you check out the website, whether you're looking for Halloween, Christmas or just everyday items, we have it all this month!

So let's see what the Design Team have been up to this week!

Judy: My DT project for this week is a gift bag, tag and a card.

I used 3 images and a paper from the Baked With Love Gingerbread Download Bundle.

I colored the b/w images with pencils and fussy cut.

I used the Fancy Snowflake Christmas Cutting Die for embellishment.

With some die cut squares and sequins added, I have a perfectly coordinated set.

Janet, for my project this time I've used Winnie Wings from the Winnie White Christmas collection. I have coloured this image twice with Polychromo pencils and punched out part of the image to put on the gift bag. The back ground papers are from Winnie White Christmas printable papers 3. The other toppers are from Winnie White Christmas coloured toppers. Some have been printed on craft card to add a variety in colour and texture.

Kim here with my card, bag and tag. I used the fun Ruby Party girl which I colored with my copics.

The sentiment is from Winnies Celebrations Sentiments. My papers were from Winnies White Christmas digital papers. I think she is ready to celebrate!

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

Wk 43 Anything Goes Card Making and Craft Challenge

So let's see what the Design Team have been up to this week!

Nelly here at heshaw.blogspot.com Sh don't tell, this card is for my Husband this Christmas! the image is actually called "Wedding Night " and you can find it here https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/wedding-night-saucy-digital-craft-stamp-download/ I thought it perfect for our team challenge " for the boys " papers are taken from the Christmas cheer pack https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/christmas-cheer-6-x-6-paper-pack/ and the embellishment/sentiment elements are from the Hochanda one day special https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/christmas-joy-collection-stamps-layering-stencils-stencils-paper-pack/

Ruth: This is such a lovely image to use for those men in your life - this is Hollybobs Santa and I've coloured him with Promarkers plus glitter glue on the fur of his suit. I've layered the image with some red card I had in my stash along with the backing paper from Snowtime Christmas 6x6 paper pack. I have a thing for buying wooden tree decorations so I can use them on my cards - this was from a set I got from Tesco's (in the January sales, obviously!) probably 6 years ago!

Sybil - I'm sharing with you a fun and festive masculine Christmas card. I colored the adorable Rudolph digital stamp with Copic markers in red, and blue colors for his outfit. Any guy would be happy to receive such a sweet Christmas card as this, and he might even show it off to his friends, well maybe, lol.

Jane here! Well this gnome from Gnome 25 December has certainly got a great stash of presents to deliver! I used some papers from last year's Gnome for Christmas pad and coloured up the image to match. I die cut the panel using the Posydoodles basic rectangles and added a couple of tags from the Posydoodles tags die set to give the sentiment some dimension.

Merja - Hello everyone! I challenged myself to do mostly blue card. I used Hollybobs Little Elf digi stamp and coloured it with alcohol markers. I put image on oval papers diecutted with Posydoodles Ovals dies. Background paper is from HO HO HO Christmas paper pack and present is diecutted with Perfect Parcels cutting die (paper is from Ula's Life mini kit). The bauble is stamped with Merry Little Christmas sentiments stamp set and holly diecutted with Holly & Spruce die.

Melissa: Hi Everyone, For my card I have used '2 Cute Christmas Penguins' digital stamp and it has been coloured with Copic Markers. I have accented this image with a computer printed sentiment and striped paper. Have a great day xx

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

Wk 42 Anything Goes Craft & Card Making Challenge

So let's see what the Design Team have been up to this week!

Judy: This week I have created a paper bag mini album, which would make a great gift! I used digis, embellishments, papers, tags, frames and a sentiment from the Winnie Winterland Big Kahuna CD Rom. I also used a paper from the Christmas Joy Digiscrap Download on the front cover.

Lisa - Sometimes it is nice to jazz up a small gift like chocolates, so for my make this week I made a little gift box using the digital image Noel Christmas Mouse. I coloured the image with alcohol markers and teamed him up with the Snowtime Christmas 6x6 Papers papers and some fabulous die cuts Poinsettia Lace and Holly & Spruce Dies.

Janet H - I've made a writing set as my gift. I've done a bit of recycling for the box base, such a nice box I couldn't throw it away. I've cover the box inside and out with papers from Winnie White christmas printable papers 1. Then I've made some note papers and notelets for inside all with a small image on them from the Winnie White Christmas toppers.

Wendy...Hi, it's Wendy here with an inexpensive gift idea for a friend. The digital stamp used for this project is Hollybobs Skater and she is colored with markers. The background paper is from the Winnie Christmas Wishes Collection. The sentiment is from Winnie Sunshine Delights Sentiment Bundle.

Kim...Hey everyone, Kim here with my latest creation. It is the adorable Rudolph Onesie which I colored with my copics and attached to a wooden ornament to make an adorable Christmas gift. You can get this digi here & The adorable sentiment is available here. Check out my blog for more details!

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

Week 41 Anything Goes Craft & Card Making Challenge

So let's see what the Design Team have been up to this week!

Ruth: I love the papers with the Posy Doodles Papercraft Kit 2 so one of the sheets was perfect for the card! I lightly distressed the edges of the papers - plus its good to use up some of the scraps for extra layers and interest. The image I've used is Ruby Celebrations and she has been coloured with Promarkers. I cut two of the sentiment Celebrate from a scrap of the papers and then covered with glossy accents and then added some really fine glitter I have for extra sparkle. Some organza ribbon from my stash and half pearls were added.

Sybil: For my wintry birthday card I watercolored the beautiful A Gift For You stamp with distress reinkers, I love watercoloring with reinkers as it gives such a soft appearance. I layered papers from The Great Outdoors Designer Papers and Christmas Cheer Craft Papers which I die cut with the Ribbon Gift Frame & Bows set. I think the bow from the die set makes sweet Winnie look like part of the present. I added some enamel dots from my stash to finish the card...

Jane T: All cosied up for a Winter Birthday Winnie is ready to venture out into the snow. I created a snowy backdrop window for her using my Copic pens and the Posydoodles square dies. Once she was all coloured up and cut out I then added an extra greeting using a stamp from the Magical Wishing Well Wishes clear stamp set. I added an icy blue edge to tie in with the Winter theme. I expect you can see that I sparkled up the snowflake on Winnie's hat using Stickles.

Sheri Hello there! For my card today, I chose to play with Snow Owls -Twiggy & Toots. I think that Twiggy and Toots might just be my favorite Polkadoodles images. Their expressions are so sweet and quirky and they are so fun to color! The paper is from the Winnie White Christmas paper collection...

Nelly: I chose to do an Autumnal Birthday card ...using the Daisy Days clear stamp set i inked up one of the elements in various autumnal hues and made a wreath card. the topper was layered onto the square swirly background die and the fabulous paper pack is called In love with Autumn...

Merja: I fell in love with this Ruby Raindrop Umbrella digi, it's so beautiful and versatile. This time I made autumn birthday card, so I coloured Ruby with fall colours. Background I did with alcohol markers. Then I added Birthday Wishes sentiment and few crystal drops as raindrops and the card is ready. I love it, it's so colourful an Ruby is so happy! I hope you have a happy Friday too!...

Melissa - For today's card I have used the adorable 'Lil Miss Sugarpops 2'. This has been printed onto X-Press It Blending Card and coloured with Copic Markers. I fussy cut around the image. The background is a stencil and stitched circle frame. The sentiment is from a sheet.
Flowers were added for a dimensional touch.

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