Let's see the inspiration from the team - we've been creating lots of gorgeous ideas for you...

Judy: My DT card for this week's challenge is a fun birthday card featuring Toadal Sweetheart 4x4 Stamp Set. I stamped this cute frog onto white card stock and colored with Spectrum Noir Markers. I also stamped and colored one of the bees. Patterned papers from the Toadally Cute 6x6 Paper Pad were die cut and arranged on the card base. The sentiment from the stamp set was stamped.

Renske - Hello everyone! This time, as a design team, we got to work on a spring birthday card. To create the card, I used the digital stamp "Bella Bear Gift-Fuzzypufs" and coloured it with my alcohol markers. For the background, I used yellow patterned paper from the "Spring Gnomes Pattern Paper" set. I also cut out flowers and bees from other patterned papers from the same set. To complete the spring scene, I place Bella Bear in the grass with flowers and sun behind passing clouds. To make the card fit the birthday theme, I added the text "Happy Birthday" from the "Birthday Sentiment & Greetings" set. I hope you like the creation and Happy Crafting! My Instagram: @renske.wishes.youFacebook: Renske.wishes.you

ENRICA - Hi crafty friends! For my spring birthday card I’ve used 3 cute pandas from the ‘Noodle Panda Bear’ collection Balloon Flowers, Birthday surprise and Flower Bouquet, colored with Copic. The patterned papers are from the Spring into Easter paper patterns – set 2 and the sentiment is from the Winnie Celebrations 3 digi kit. This is absolutely one of my favorite set, so cute and easy to color! Have a great weekend xx

Natalia Kuzak - I used the No Rain No Flowers Stamps and stencils from the latest Polkadoodles One of A Kind collection. I love how it's so easy to add lots of layers and inks to something like this tag...

Let's see the inspiration from the team - we've been creating lots of gorgeous ideas for you...

RACHAEL - Have you seen the latest stamp release? There are several beautiful stamps in the one of a kind collection. In my mind, this stamp was just asking for vibrant, bright bold colours, so I used a combination of inks and copic markers to make it really pop. This stamp is called fly me anywhere, and is super versatile!

Pam ~ Today the focus is on the upcoming Easter holiday. I've selected Winnie Sugar Sprinkles and used the Big Kahuna package for all the different elements in my card. I sized Winnie, the chick, and the eggs are layered first where I wanted them to be. Then I pulled in the digital papers from the same package as well as the two sentiments. I printed the 'Hey Chick!' separately so I could die cut it and have the white background. After printing, I colored all the images with Copic markers and completed the card. If you're new to digital printing papers and layers, Polkadoodles has a tutorial on layered cards HERE.

Merja - This time I used Bunnita Carrot Cake image and coloured it with alcohol markers. The papers are from Spring into Easter Paper Set 1. I also added a sentiment from Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Sentiments and carrots I made with Spring Borders stencil.

Nunzia: With Polkadoodles digi you have a thousand possibilities to making a card. I designed this one by centering a digi doily from Winnie Celebrations Banners on a pink patterned sheet included in Flower meadow digi stamp. Then I pasted Winnie-daisy-fairy and Happy Easter included in Winnie-celebrations sentiments. Finally I coloured with alcohol markers the scene and cut out the frame from the base.


Wendy - Hi everyone! I just love spring! The flowers are blooming and everyone is ready to throw those windows open to let the fresh air in. This image is Winnie in the Window from the Winnie Special Moments bundle, and she has the right idea. She's looking fabulous and enjoying the warmer temperatures. Thank you for looking!

Renske - Hello Everyone! This time I made a quick and easy Easter card. For this I used the digital stamp Bunny Rabbit with spring carrots. I colored the picture with alcohol markers. I also used a sentiment from the Easter greetings, quotes and sentiment set. I die-cut the text with a rectangle die and applied some green ink and blue ink to the background. I hope I have been able to inspire you again. Happy Crafting. My Instagram: @renske.wishes.you Facebook: Renske.wishes.you

Judy: This week's DT project is an Easter card created with Cute Bunny Sitting on Easter Egg.
I colored the image with Prismacolor Pencils before fussy cutting. My background was done by inking white card stock and adding die cut clouds and grass. The sentiment, from Easter Greetings, Quotes and Sentiments, was printed onto the background.

ENRICA - I used this Cute Bunny digistamp from the Springtime Smiles collection and added her to this great colouring background scene which you can find here...

RACHAEL - I am just in love with these Darling buds images - this one is tulip isn't she amazing! I wanted her to be bright and bold and shine through on these dreary days, and love the bright pink and green colour combo. This won't be the last time is use these colours together!

Nunzia: for the incoming Mother's day I thought to make a "thank you" card. All mothers deserve it. So I colored this cute Love-you mum-banner Winnie with alcohol markers an added a pink bowl. The paper is part of Love birds valentin papers-3 while the sentiment comes from Mothers day messages and sentiments bundle.


Pam - For my card today I've selected Horace & Boo Sleepy Pots and made a Relaxing card for Mother's Day Celebration in the UK. I used papers from Polkadoodles, Cheers and Beers to make the split background and used Copic markers for the coloring.

Merja - This time I used Fantasy Moon image. I love everything fantasy themed and this image is super beautiful and versatile to work with. I added the background with a text editor program before printing the image. Then I coloured the image with alcohol markers. Lastly I added a glittery gold paint pen to brighten the text, stars and some other areas. I really love this card 💚

Wendy - Hi everyone! We're celebrating Mother's Day!! What Mom wouldn't want a relaxing spa day? This adorable little elephant is from the Tons of Love bundle. I just love drawing a little bathroom scene for this sweetie. Thank you for looking!
