Julie Nagle - Christmas was the theme for our design team challenge and these Super Sized Christmas Tag Cards seemed like the perfect project. The versatility of these rustic but fun-looking tags will help you tag a gift, tag a bottle of wine, or simply send out as a Christmas card. The tag itself has a rustic wintery theme featuring Elvis Wesley Moose, some perfectly plaid patterned paper, a sled full of Christmas gifts, and even some splattered snow. “Have the Moose Wonderful Holiday” sentiment was one of many festive sentiments included in this fabulously fun download of Christmas themed products from PolkaDoodles.

Christmas hat : R14, 29, 46

Merja - We were asked to create something Christmas related. I actually coloured one Winnie image to create a card but then I changed my mind and wanted something more simple (and use mostly blue colours). I stamped the bigger tree from the Jingle Bells Christmas stamp set and Christmas text from Smiley Snowman stamp set and then added a delicate background with Distress Ink and Heavenly Circles stencil. I coloured the tree with Sharpie pens and added a glossy accent over the "bubbles". Lastly I drew a frame near the card's edge because it looked too simple without it. And I really love the result.

More gorgeous inspiration for you this week to use - we hope you'll share what you make with your Polkadoodles products on our Social Media!

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

ENRICA - Hi everyone! For my flowers themed project this week I’ve made a card in a box using the super cute Picking Flowers Fairy Winnie Daisy digital stamp together with the beautiful flowers of the Flower Meadow printable set, all the images are colored with Copic markers. Patterned papers are from the Flower Meadow printable set and Winnie Daisy Fairy - Paper Patterns 1, the sentiment is from the Everyday greetings and quotes - Winnie Daisy Fairy set. Love these cute sets, they add a sprinkle of sweetness to every crafting project!

Christine - I had so much fun creating this purse card as my inspiration for this week's challenge using only the absolutely stunning papers and precolored images from the Flower Meadow collection. If you haven't tried to use digital papers before then go check them out because you are in for a treat. I`m always amazed at how well printing at home turns out. I kept my embellishment for this project really clean, letting the papers be the star of this purse card. I used a strong magnet for my closure so the purse keeps nice and closed. On the inside I created a little tuck space for a tag to write my personal message on. You could also add a gift card in there. The sentiment I used on the inside is from the Winnie Daisy messages bundle. 💮 My IG: ckndesign_craft 💮

Renske - Hello everyone! Our design team was tasked with creating a card featuring flowers and an unusual shape. I chose to design a double-diamond card. For the flower theme, I selected the digital stamp "Daffodil Flower Girl Darling Buds." After colouring it with alcohol markers, I cut it out.For the double diamond, I used sturdy white paper and patterned paper from two different sets: "Gnome Men Fishing" and "Pretty Printable Papers 1 - Helga Hippo." The squares on the sides come from the "Gnome Men Fishing" set, and the area where the digital stamp is located is from the "Helga Hippo" set. Since alcohol markers bleed through a bit on the back, I adhered the digital stamp onto white paper and cut it out again to ensure the bleed-through is not visible. On the yellow paper from the "Spring Gnome" paper set, I punched out a flower shape and placed a white circle in the middle. I used a flower from the digital stamp, coloured it, and placed it in a white circle on both sides. To complete the card, I used a sentiment from the "Spring Flowers Mother's Day Friends Greeting" set, cutting it out and adhering it under the digital stamp. The card is now ready, and I hope it inspires you. Happy Crafting!

Irre - Hello everyone. Sharing today a birthday card, I used a digital stamp called Miss you from the Winnie Sugar sprinkles Spring collection. I colored the stamp with Copics alcohol markers and then cut the stamp out. For the background, I colored in a white paper with Distress ink through a stencil. Then, I stamped the paper with different stamps. Some with black ink and some with purple ink. I attached the colored stamp to the paper with foam pillows. I also added a sentiment from the stamp set Just hangin’ Little Dude. Finally, I attached it all to a white card base. Instagram: @scrapbyirre / Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_BjwL9Z8gt1i_E1WmKmrWg

Judy: This week the DT was asked to created a card with an unusual shape and to use images with flowers. I chose to go with Picking Flowers Fairy Winnie Daisy. She was colored with Prismacolor Pencils and fussy cut. My card base was die cut. A cloud patterned paper was added to the background. This printable paper is from Pretty Spring Papers. A die cut fence was added and Winnie popped on top. The sentiment is from Winnie Fairy Daisy Everyday Greetings and Quotes.

Julie Nagle - Craft up this delicious BBQ Sauce Collar to give as a host gift at the next BBQ you attend. This fun project features food images from PolkaDoodles - BBQ Gnome for Men (burger, sauce, pattern paper). I added the hotdog from Winnie Starfish/Sandcastle Hot Dog, The images were colored with Copic Markers, cut out, and arranged to compliment the BBQ themed paper. . The collar fits over the neck of the BBQ sauce bottle to create a super fun gift for your favorite chef in hopes of a delicious day!! My socials: Instagram, Facebook

Wendy - Hi everyone! For today's challenge, the Design Team is creating cards with food and drinks. Of course, I had to use the Coffee and Cake Big Value Bundle for mine. It's my absolute favorite, full of coffee (love it) and cupcakes (YUM). I decided to use the milkshake image and cute the middle out to turn into a frappuccino shaker. I used some simple paper piecing using papers from this bundle to create a cupcake wrapper and drink sleeve.

Copic Markers I used:

Wall - BG10

Table - E30, E31, E33, E42, E43

Cupcake - E51, E53, E55

Wrapper and Bow - RV34 (wrapper shadow); R35, R37, R39

Heart Waffle - E31, E33, E35, E42, E43

Straw - RV21, RV23, RV25

JANELLE - Hello crafty friends! Here’s a sweet mousy tag using Birthday Mouse to wish a happy birthday. 💛🐭🥳🧀🩵For more inspiration check out my IG page @janelle.paper.sparkles

Cheese: Y00, Y02, Y04

Ears/tail: R000, 01, 11

Crown: B37, 39

Merja - This time I wanted to do something different and came up with the idea of a cupcake accordion card. I used Waffle Cream Frosting Cupcake digi stamp and designed the card with a text editor program. I arranged the cupcakes near each other before printing and then cut the print with an electric cutting machine. I fold the cardboard between cupcakes with a little help of a bone folder and then coloured the cupcakes with alcohol markers. Lastly I added die cut letters saying "Happy bday!". This was a super fun project!

Christine - Hi everyone. For today's card I had fun coloring a lake scene with the adorable little gnome gone fishing. I just can`t get enough of the Gnomes for men collection lately so I have several of them. I kept my card design clean to really make this Copic colored scene pop. I hope you liked it, and that you got some inspiration to grab your favourite coloring medium.

💮 My IG: ckndesign_craft 💮

I had fun with lots of markers this time. Copic markers used:

ENRICA - Hi everyone! I love gnomes and was so happy for this week assignment! For my card I used the super cute Gardening Gnome layered on the Country Road Scene background, colored with Copic. I added a sentiment and a few small flowers, hope you like it!

Renske - Hello, everyone! This time, we were asked to use a gnome for our card. I chose the digital stamp "Gnometastic Strawberry Dream". He's so cute, and I love strawberries, so it's a perfect match. For my card, I wanted the gnome to be seated at a table. I created a textured background with the idea of a wallpapered wall, using black paper at the bottom of the panel to represent a tablecloth. I used patterned paper from the "Gnome Men Golf digital paper set" to form a wavy edge with a die, letting it hang in a triangle shape and placing the gnome in the middle. I also included two texts: "Gnome Sweet Gnome" from the set "Spring Gnome Fun puns, quotes and sentiments" on the wall and "Just wanted to make you smile" from the "Winnie Daisy Messages set" on the tablecloth and next to it. To complete the card, I added a bow. Hopefully, I was able to inspire you again. Happy Crafting! My Instagram: @renske.wishes.you Facebook: Renske.wishes.you

Judy: The DT was asked to create with a gnome for this week's challenge. I chose to go with a Christmas card using the Gnome Chimney Capers Matchables Stamp Set. I stamped one of the gnome images, the sentiment and the holly corner stamp. They were colored with Prismacolor Pencils and cut with the matching dies. I fussy cut the sentiment. The gnome was popped onto a hexagon die cut and all the images were arranged on a background of 2 patterned papers.
