Let's see the inspiration from the team - today we've been creating lots of lovely sweet treats inspiration for you!... 

Irre - Hello everyone. Sharing today a tag for Polkadoodles. For this project, I used a digital stamp called Lavender. I colored her with Copics. For the background, I colored in the tag with Distress ink and added some more through the number collage stencil. I did some edge stamping too, with a stamp from the stamp set Special times. Then, I added some black twine and decorated it with black stones,  a metal flower, art stones, and a rhinestone. As a sentiment, I used one from the Rebel easy snip message strips. Finally, I added a black ribbon. Instagram: @scrapbyirre


Pam - We're having a Gnometastic Birthday Surprise with this Over the Hill Easel card. I've colored the gnome with Copic markers and added a '40' in the balloon. I've used the balloon papers from Polkadoodles Birthday Fun Paper pack behind the image and for the two strips at the base of the easel card to hold it standing. What a fun triple challenge this week!



Merja - I used the Party Little Dude image and coloured it with alcohol markers. The background paper is from the same set and I added some numbers from Number Circles Digi Stamps on it before printing. Text is stamped with Birthday Celebrations Stamps Set. I just love these Little Dude images 💙

Nunzia: I thought this Lazy Panda would be perfect for a teenager's birthday. I used a paper from Noodle Panda set as a background and cut two squares from two other patterned ones included in the same bundle. Finally, I glued some strips coloured with alcohol markers to complete te design. The whole composition was glued onto a blue base blended with distress oxide ink. The number is part of Winnie White Christmas Alphabet, while the sentiment is one of Winnie Celebrations sentiment Kit2.

Rachael - Hello again crafting friends. The thing about using digital stamps is that you can make them as big or as small as you like. I love this wizardry magic stamp from the little dude's collection. Perfect for a child's birthday. This one I made as large as a DL card with a giant number 7 in the background from the bonus printables that come with this stamp! Simple and yet really striking for a mantlepiece.

Wendy - Hi Everyone! We're playing with numbers today for the Polkadoodles challenge. I used the Coffee and Cake BIG Bundle with Birthday Candles (for my numbers). I couldn't resist getting the entire bundle - I love all things coffee. I used the paper, sentiment, and both a cupcake and coffee image for my card. I usually color everything myself, but the pre-colored images were just too cute and made it so easy for me to assemble. Thank you for looking!

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! Share in our Facebook group here

Enrica - Hello everyone! For this week challenge I made a cute bookmark using the adorable Bookworm/Study Rebel colored with Copic; papers are from Gnome holding carrots gardening and Spring intoEaster printable cardmaking digital craft paper patterns - set 2, the sentiment is from Student/School Little Dude. And since there can't be a bookmark without a notebook I have embellished the cover of this planner with the delightful little chemists from the Science/Maths/Teacher/Professor/Geek/Student/Chemisty bundle kit. Good luck to all!!

Judy: My DT card for this week's challenge is "school" themed. I have used the Wanda Working Study Phone Printable as my focal image. She was colored with Castle Arts Soft Touch Pencils and fussy cut. Part of the sentiment was stamped with the Funky Alphabet A5 Stamp Set. I also stamped borders and numbers from the same set. The other part of the sentiment was printed using Wanda Printable Messages and QuotesI added a strip of patterned paper behind Wanda from the Wanda Printable Paper Set 3.
Renske - I used the cute Lollipop Lady School Crossing Patrol/Security Guard digital stamp for my Back to School themed card. I coloured the digital stamp with my alcohol markers. For the girl's outfit, I chose a yellow jacket, white shirt and a blue cap with yellow accents. The floral-print skirt was decorated with yellow and blue flowers and I added subtle accents to enhance the overall look. The finishing touches included using glitter on the flowers and paper glaze on the plate. I set her in a scene with a road, pavement and trees in leaf. A lovely scene. Hope you like it. Happy crafting! My instagram: @renske.wishes.you

Sonja - This cute Little Dude Student is going Back to School ... This project is easily done: I Used the Paper from  Gnome Men Dad/Father the sentiment is from Rebel Messages with attitude. I arrange both on the computer to fit the little notebook my son will get going back to school after summer vacation .



Sabina - Hello everyone. Our challenge this week is Back to school. The new school year will soon be here and since we have a first grader at home, the card below seemed perfect. The Flower Fairy on a Scooter/moped/bike is coloured with alcohol markers. I combined it with some papers from Gnome Men Dad/Father papers and Work & Play 10 Collection. The sentiment is part of

Wk 32 - Card making & paper craft challenge - Anything Goes creative craft challenge at Polkadoodles

Welcome to a new Craft Card making Challenge!

The winners of our last challenge are at the bottom of this post!

Let's see the inspiration from the team - today we've been creating lots of lovely sweet treats inspiration for you!...    

Merja - On my card I used Vacation Winnie image and Beach Scene background image. I used a text editor to design the layout, printed it and then coloured with alcohol markers. I also used a white gel pen here and there and the sky I coloured with Distress Ink. Lastly I added a turquoise cardboard behind the scene and stamped the sentiment with Hello Sunshine Clear Stamps and black ink. I think Winnie is having a great time! I hope you have too 😊


 Nunzia: It is so much fun to play with summer themes on these hot days, which is why I chose to color the cute Rocco Surf's Up. I fussy cut the stamp and glued it onto a combination of Just Lovely - Honeypie papers. Finally I printed the sentiment from Quotes Winnie-special-moments framed with a banner of Winnie-celebrations-1-banners and numbers bundle.



Pam - This adorable Panda in her 'Beach Inflatable Flamingo' is ready for the Hot Days of Summer! I've colored her up with my Copic markers and used Polkadoodles Starfish & Sandcastles papers along with the Sunshine from the Zodiac digital pack. She'll be catching the rays and chilling by the water!



Hi Rachael again, with more inspiration for the latest challenge. A few weeks ago I challenged myself to use only the ephemera, and I have done the same this week, but I have used the coloured images from a kit to make a full scene. Using Winnie starfish and sandcastles kit, I used all the smaller bits to make this fabulous beach scene. I layered it on my graphics program and then printed it several times so I could decoupage for depth and dimension. I wish I was there!




Wendy - Hi Everyone! Today I'm sharing another adorable Noodle card. Melon and Donut Snack is part of the super cute Noodle Panda - Set 1. I've had so much fun playing with Noodle and his friends. Today they're having a picnic in this beautiful Park Scene. I've colored everything with Copic markers. I hope you can play along with us. I can't wait to see what you create!
