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

Pam ~ This week's Polkadoodles Challenge was Trim a Tree - any tree. I decided to use Winnie's Birthday Tree for a special December birthday. I've made a fun fold design called a Flip Top Flap Over Card. Lots of fun Copic coloring on the Flip Top, then The star patterned paper is from the Winter Wonderland craft pack with the Polkadoodles 'Happy Birthday' die. Inside the regular card base has a place for writing.

Merja - On this card I used the image and sentiment from the Winnie White Christmas Big Kahuna (you can also find the precoloured Buying the Tree as a single image). Even though the image is precoloured, I added some pink and green colours to it because the printed colours were too light for me 😊 Then I just added the green die cut card base.

Nunzia: this challenge is dedicated to trees. I love the lines of Christmas Tree - Lucy Monkman digital stamp so I decided to color it with alcohol markers; its base is decorated with a patterned paper included in Love Always printable Papers 1 bundle. I used the same paper for the strip and the bow, while the blue panel comes from Just Lovely - Honeypie. The sentiment is part of Winnie Celebrations Kit 2.

Rachael - Hello everyone. I used an image from the Bella Christmas bear release called 'Santa stop here'. Once I had coloured and fussy cutout, I used a pop-up die to add it to the inside of the card making it feel really special for the recipient. . The outside is decorated using the papers from the same release. The Christmas trees I took from the paper and enlarged them. Backing papers are more than just an accent behind the main image, have a close look and see what you can use in different ways!

Wendy - Hi everyone! I have another adorable box card for you today. I used a couple of adorable images from the Christmas Bear bundle as well as one of the amazing backgrounds that come with it. I combined the Decorating the Tree and Sweater images with one of the wintery backgrounds for a stunning scene. I colored everything with Copic markers. I love coloring these adorable bears and making scenes for them. Thank you for looking!

Naomi - Hi Everyone! That time of year is coming, and I, for one, can't wait for the Holiday Season!! This week's card features Carol Singing - Elvis Wesley Moose! For the sentiment, I used Theo Penguin -Greetings/Sentiments Bundle, greetings #33. I coloured him using my alcohol markers. I also added some sparkles and framed the card on red glitter cardstock to give him a little extra shine. Thanks so much for reading. I can't wait to see what everyone makes this week!

Ohuhu Colour Blends I used are as follows:

• Tree: GY4 GY3 G2
• Hat: R1 R3
• Body: BR1 E280 E210 E220
• Snow: CG2 CGII04

Mayte - I used the beautiful digital stamp Elvis Wesley Moose  and the wonderful sentiments for Christmas...I coloured with pastel markers and Polychromos pencils. Finally I used blue distress ink to look like the winter season !

Janelle - Hello! I absolutely love, love the color combination for this challenge. I decided to use the Buying the tree stamp set! I hope you enjoy it too! As always you can see more inspiration on my IG @sparkle.craft.happiness and Facebook.

Irre - Hello everyone.

Time for another Halloween project on a cardboard with the digital stamp Pandora witch Halloween which I colored with Copics. For the cardboard, I decorated it with cardboard pieces, twine, paper flowers, keys, cogs, plastic moon, flower pot stones, and art stones. I painted it all with black gesso. I colored it in with ink sprays and Inka gold. I added the digital stamp and a sentiment from the Boo Halloween sentiment pack. Finally, I added some splats to the cardboard.

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!
