This week the team were asked to use blue and grey combinations on their projects...


Judy: My DT card for this challenge was created with Ice Skating Snowman & Bear Too Cute Digital Stamp. This cute digi was colored with Prismacolor Pencils and fussy cut. The card base was constructed with circle die cuts. Glitter card stocks were used for a "frosty" effect. I used one of the digital embossed papers from the Christmas Joy Digiscrap Download Bundle on the background. The sentiment is from the Theo Penguin Greetings/Sentiments Bundle. It was printed and cut with an oval die. A bow and blue snowflakes were added for embellishment. The die cut embellishment was cut from

Renske - Hello everyone! I am excited to share my latest project with you. I have created a beautiful winter landscape on a slimline card base featuring the adorable Waddy and Wanda Penguins digital stamp bundle. These cute penguins are the stars of my card, and I coloured them using alcohol markers. I made Waddy slide on a sledge with a slider element, to add an interactive element to the card. I also added sentiments like "Flippert Flap It's Cold Outside" and "Brrrrrr" from the Theo Penguin sentiments/greetings set to capture the essence of winter. To give the card more charm, I added piles of snowballs and subtle shadows for depth. I had a lot of fun making this card, and I hope you like it too. Happy crafting!

Sabina - Dear crafty friends, I wish you a happy New Year! Today I'm sharing a mixed media project made with acrylic paints and a gorgeous Little Gift Theo Penguin digital stamp coloured with alcohol markers. The sentiment is part of Christmas greetings, quotes and sentiments.

Enrica - Hi crafty friends! This week the DT was asked to create a winter project using blues, greys and a pop of lilac… As soon as I saw this assignment I immediately thought of the wonderful Polar Family – Octavia Frosted Winter, I created my own snowy background and colored it with Copic, added a little sentiment from the Christmas message sheets. I had so much fun coloring this freezing scene, hope you like it!

Tinne - For this week’s challenge, I created a very cute card, using the Snowman Bella Christmas Bear precoloured image. I totally fell in love with it when I saw it! I cut it out using my Silhouette Cameo. I cut out the HUGS letters using a die from my stash, and the beautiful dotted pattern paper from the Work & Play 10 – Paper Heaven 1 bundle. It matches the Bella Bear image perfectly! I also cut out two additional layers of the HUGS out of white scrap paper, to create some dimension. I inked a background usingSpeckled Egg Distress Oxide ink, and splattered it with water and white paint. I glued the HUGS letters on top of the background, together with the word BIG (it’s a part of a sentiment from the Winnie Daisy Greetings, Quotes and Sentiments bundle). I cut out a hill out of white cardstock, and glued my Bella Bear image on it. I put some foam tape behind it, and glued it on my background, using my stamping tool to allign it perfectly. I hope you like it!






Deborah - Hello all! I never seem to have enough birthday cards, so I am always mindful of the need to rebuild my stash. For this week's card, I decided to make a winter birthday card using shades of blue, lilac, purple, and grey. For my main image, I chose the digi Winnie White Christmas - Christmas Shopping. All of the images in the Winnie White Christmas are simply adorable. You can choose either the pre-colored or uncolored version. I created my background using the Christmas Holly, Gifts, Snow 3 in 1 Craft Stencil  and some glitter paste. I finished the card with a birthday sentiment from the Winnie Celebrations 3 Sentiment Collection. If you would like to color Winnie using the colors I selected, I have listed them below.

Irre - Hello everyone. Sharing today a new project with the digital stamp Wanda fairy ballerina and I created a card with her. I colored her with Copics alcohol markers and then cut her out. For the background, I used heavenly circles stencil together with Distress ink. Then, I stamped with stamps from Doodle dragonfly and Queen for a day stamp set on the edges. I also used distress ink for that. After that, I painted the stamping with water to create a little more rough look. I added the Wanda stamp to the paper with 3D foam pillows. Finally, I added a sentiment from Winnie daisy greetings, quotes and sentiments pack that I rounded the corners on.

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!
