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

Judy: My thank you card for this week's DT project was created with Hello Cute Autumn Fall Fox. He was colored with Prismacolor Pencils and fussy cut before popping with foam tape onto a layered die cut circle. The flowers were printed from the Ephemera Autumn Fall Fox Download and fussy cut. My background paper is from Noodle Panda Set 2 Printable Papers.

I printed the sentiment from the Winnie Heroes Printable Bundle and die cut. 3 pearls were added to complete my design.

Renske - I created this heartwarming shaker card using Polkadoodles' Big Bunch digital stamp as the centrepiece. After printing the image and then colouring it in with alcohol markers, I decided to use vellum for the shaker window to soften the busy background from the 'Love Birds Valentine' digital paper set. On the shaker section, I added the text 'Thankful to have you in my life' from the Winnie Sunshine Delight Sentiments set. A few strategically placed hearts and a touch of creativity completed this beautiful card. "I hope you like it again. Happy crafting!

Sabina - For this week's challenge I am sharing with you a page in mixed media technique in autumn colours. I applied rustic paint in green and orange colors to the cardboard and dried it with a heat gun. I added some texture paste using a stencil. This gorgeous stamp Birthday Cake Rebel girl is colored with Ohuhu markers and cut out with scissors. I used the paper with hearts from the set Happy Cactus Succulentprintable paper patterns 1 and a sentiment from the Winnie Daisy greetings,quotes and sentiments set. I added some red acrylic paint and black oil pastel along the edges.

Enrica - Hello everyone! For my Thank You card this week I used the super cute Cat Naps - Honeypie digital stamp, together with Room With a View to create the background and a few add-on from the Retire & Snooze Gnome bundle. This could be a scene from my home: me, my cat, some books and a coffee.. a perfect autumn scene!

Sonja – I just love this cute Jump for Joy girl. I used some extra leaves an Musrooms from Autumn/Fall digi stamps as Background and the sentence thank you is coming from Winnie Celebrations 3 sentiments.

Tinne - Hi everyone! For this challenge I made a very girly and cute card using the sweet Blossoming Winnie digital image. I coloured the image with my Copic markers, and I’ll share my colour combinations below. I used a white gellpen to add some dots on the image. This way the image will become more playfull. The background was made with a backdrop die from my stash, and I put some blue cardstok behind it to match Winnie’s dress. The sentiment I used is from the Winnie Daisy greetings, quotes and sentiments set. Have fun creating!

Copic marker combinations:

• Hair: E39, E35, E34, E31
• Dress: B97, B95, B91, B0000

Deborah - Hello all! For this week's challenge inspiration, I created a fun, A2 sized, Fall Thank You card using the Autumn Fall Digi Packand the Winnie Celebrations 3 Sentiments . For the background, I created my own plaid using washi tape and Distress Oxide Inks (Vintage Photo, Faded Jeans, Bundled Sage, and Scattered Straw). 

I colored all of the images using Copics (colors listed below). If you don't want to color them yourself, all of images are also available in a pre-colored version.

• Scarecrow: Y 21, 23, 26, 32; E 13, 31, 34, 39, 43, 51, 53; B 45, 95, 99; G 82, 85, 94; R 37; YR 09, 31
• Pumpkins: B 000, 95; W 1; E 23, 50, 51; Y 28, 32; YR 31

• Apples: G 82; Y 02, 26, 28; YR 09; R 37

Jane - A quick and simple card made using the lovely Latte Fox from the Autumn/Fall collection. I used various shades of browns and oranges to colour the fox using Spectrum Noir Tri-blends. Unfortunately, I didn't make note of the specific colour blends used, but using these markers makes alcohol marker colouring effortless. 

For added dimension, and interest I added a couple of elements from the autumn digi stamp bundle There is so much choice within this collection, that you'll never be short on inspiration.

I kept the card relatively flat for postage purposes, but couldn't resist raising up the pumpkins on a little foam tape, adding some highlights with a Gelli roll number 8. I used the flat chisel of a black marker around the outside of the card, giving an illusion of a black mat to make this card stand out.

Thank you for having a peek, and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

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!
