THE WINNERS OF OUR LAST CHALLENGE ARE AT THE END OF THIS POST

So let's get to today's inspiration & see what the team made for us, this week it's all about Mother's Day...



Pam ~ For my Mother's Day project, I've selected Blossoming Winnie and colored her with several bright Copic markers. After die cutting, I used Polkadoodles Serenity Spring Surprise papers for my layout and added the preprinted sentiment from Polkadoodles also. Lastly I added the organza bow at the top fold.




Merja - On my card I used an adorable Bella Bear Morning Coffee digi set. The sentiment is from Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Sentiment/Quote Bundle. I layered the patterned papers, added pre-coloured Bella and then just some ribbons and half pearls. Super easy but still beautiful!



Nunzia: this card is dedicated to Mother's day and what could be more appropriate than these group of Cute Cats and kittens digi. I coloured them with alcohol markers, fussy cut and glued them on the base made by layering two sheets taken from Just lovely honeypie printable papers. The sentiment is one of Winnie Sugar Sprinkles bundle.



Wendy - Hi everyone! What do you do when you can't decide on which Winnie to use on your card? You use them all! I've been playing with the Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime Bundle and made an adorable Mother's Day card featuring 3 of Springtime Winnies (Shy, Want a Carrot?, Coffee and Cake , 3 patterned papers, and a few of the word art and tags. I turned it into an adorable accordion card.



Rachael - To celebrate Mothers day in the UK, here's a special bunny card to say thanks to all the moms out there! Made using bunnita carrot cake from the fuzzy puffs collection, and papers from the Sugar scrumptious pad. She was coloured using a combination of alcohol markers and coloured pencils to add extra detail.


Julie Schinkel - Hi everyone, today I'm sharing my DT project for the Polkadoodles Mother's Day Challenge using the cute Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime - Love You Mum digital stamp. For the background layers I've used the Eden Collection - Paper Heaven 5 bundle. I've coloured the image to match with the digital papers using Copic markers. I hope that my card inspires you to join in the challenge this month. I can’t wait to see what you all create!



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 -

So let's get to today's inspiration & see what the team made for us, this week it's all about celebrations of love such as engagements etc...


Judy: My DT card for this week's challenge was created with one of the sweet digis from the Wings of Love Collection. I used Love Birds Hearts & Roses Valentine, colored with Castle Arts Pasteltint Pencils and fussy cut. The background papers are from Love Birds Valentine - Wings of Love Craft Papers 5 and Love Birds Valentine - Wings of Love Craft Papers 3. The sentiment was printed from Love Birds Greetings Valentine and fussy cut. I added a die cut frame behind the digi and 2 die cut hearts, one of which I embossed.



Renske: Hello everyone! Love is in the air. For this challenge I got to work with this cute digital stamp Bunny Love together. I colored the image with my alcohol markers. I used the sentiment from the set Love always sentiments. With my ink, I made the background to enhance the love of these cute bunnies. Hope you like it.Happy crafting!
My instagram: @renske.wishes.you Facebook: Renske.wishes.you Pinterest: Renske.wishes.you


Donna P: For this weeks engagement theme, I thought I would give a festive stamp a new look! I used the cute gnome couple from the Meet Me Under the Mistletoe stamp set which I stamped multiple times onto the Soft & Scrumptiouspaper pack. I then used these to paper piece the happy couple into matching outfits. To cover up the holly leaves I used the Love Hearts stamp set to create two heart embellishments. I also found a sentiment from the Helga Hippo Sentiments digi stamp set which was the perfect message.


ENRICA - Hello everyone! For my engagement card I thought of something with a vintage look... For my monochrome card I used the sweet 'Tandem Ride' digital stamp colored in shades of sepia, beige and brown, the sentiment is part of the Love Birds Greetings set. To add a bit of romance I added die-cut flowers and small leaves in the same shades.


Sonja - For today's challenge I created a card to have the two come together as the day of your engagement is a very special day. I thought this is perfect. I used the image from Let's go for a picnic - Winnie Special Moments craft digi download and the sayings from the Quotes - Winnie Special Moments

Sarah - The celebrations stamp set is so versatile. I used 3 of the stamps here to create a quick and simple engagement card, but you could use it for all sorts of celebrations!


Sabina - Hello everyone! This week we are in love. I made a simple card with these sweet "Together Always" rabbits and one of the sentiments from "Love Birds Greetings Valentine"


Natalia - Hello everyone! Valentine's Day is behind us, but we continue to inspire you on the topic of love. Today's challenge theme is Engagement. I have prepared for you a handmade wooden love plate with birds from our one of digi stamps Love Bird Heart Bunting (precoloured) Valentine. They are so cute and beautifully colored by Nikky that I decided to use them. I thought that they would be wonderfully composed with bright colors, flowers, and other accessories colored with water paints. In addition, I used hearts from a sheet Wings of Love coloured Topper sheet 5 and cut them out. 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 -

THE WINNERS OF OUR LAST CHALLENGE ARE AT THE END OF THIS POST

So let's get to today's inspiration & see what the team made for us...

Wendy - Hi everyone!   I used the  First Date stamp from the Love Always collection to create a card with an adorable little bunny couple sitting under the shade of a beautiful cherry blossom tree.  My favorite part about digi stamps is that you can resize and manipulate them in so many ways.  For this card, in addition to using the entire image, I also printed just the trees from FIrst Date, in both directions (using mirroring) to let the couple sit in the park on a beautiful day.  I created a box card to give the scene depth and added a simple colored background to finish it off.  The saying is from the Love Always sentiment bundle.  Here are the colours I used: Sky - B32, B34, B47, B39;    Moon - C1, C3, B0000;   Grass - G20, YG61, YG63;   Boy Bunny - W0, W1, W3 BG72, BG75, BG79;   Girl Bunny - E40, E41, E42, E43, V12, V15, V17;    Pinks - R81, R83, R85


 Merja - On my card I used these adorable birdies Love Bird Cupid and Love Bird Heart and coloured them with alcohol markers. The patterned paper is from Wings of Love papers 2 pack and text from Love Birds Valentine greetings pack. Happy Valentine's Day!


 Nunzia: my love card today features these two adorable bunnies (Love all-love always digi). I made the scene with a masking technique while the patterned paper is from Winnie Sunshine Delight paper packThe sentiment ccomes from Love always printable sentiments big bundle.




Pam ~ For my Design Team Valentine today, I've selected Polkadoodles Your Love Lifts Me UP , and the Love and Kisses Stamp Set.  I printed the cute bunnies and used Copic markers for coloring.  Then I added the hearts and doodles from the stamp set. The striped paper from the Sugar Scrumptious paper pack was perfect for the background as was the sentiment from the Love Always Sentiment pack.  This is one Valentine I can't wait to share. 

Ariadna -  Hello crafty friends!! Valentine's day is coming and today I come with a new inspiration card for polkadoodle in the month of Love!  For this inspiration I used the super cute and lovely digital stamp "Bunny love cupid" painted with my favorite color pencils and for the background a little bit of color with watermarks. Hope you like it!


Rachael It's almost valentine's day and to celebrate this special day  I used this 'too cute' stamp called bee mine for the focal image, and then used a computer generated sentiment to match. The stencil background is made using this one from funky flower release. called Rosy posy.


Michelle - This little cutie is sending her Valentines!! I created this 5x7 Valentine Card using the adorable “Mailing a Letter/Sending Wishes – Lil Miss Sugarpops” as my focal point. I then used the beautiful, patterned papers in the “Love and Romance” bundle3 as well as theframes bundle to add layering! My sentiment is from the “WinnieCelebrations 1”. Sending you much love for Valentine’s Day! 



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 -
