Rachael - Hi crafting friends! I wanted to share with you a card I made using the new vintage stag collection. He is just so striking! I used the tree die in this kit to make a stencil for the background, and then using black and gold splattered the card. Finished with black ink for the main stamp. I just love how elegant this turned out, a bit of sparkle and it's perfect for the Christmas mantelpiece!

Adam - Sometimes a stamp just cry's out to be made into a clean and simple card. This is what I heard from the Polkadoodles Crafts stamp set "Donuts About You" when I saw it. When a stamp instructs you what to make you just have to do it. (Don't be afraid of a lot of white space let the image do the talking.) I used PD8117 Donuts About You

Merja - I wanted to create something clean and quite simple. I used Deck the Halls stamp set and stamped the frame and the tree on the watercolour paper. Then I coloured them with metallic watercolours. Lastly I stamped the Joy text (from the same stamp set) with embossing ink and added gold embossing powder. Pretty joyous card, don't you think 😊

Julie Nagle - This Surprise “Pop Up” Christmas Cookie Kit, features delightful paper and whimsical images from Polkadoodles - Gingerbread & Holly digital designs download! This bundle is packed full of digital images, papers and sentiments to create this Pop Up Cookie Kit! This super fun kit is easy to create, looks beautiful and if the recipe and cookie making supplies just aren’t enough fun, the Pop Up Surprise image when opening the box will surely be! Pack the kit with a cookie cutter, icing tubes, and sprinkles to complete a festive and fun Christmas gift for budding bakers, teachers, or anyone who simply adores cookies. All of the details to create this project can be found on my blog. My Instagram, Facebook

Bea - Hey guys! It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!! I am so excited to share this card with you. I have used the beautiful digital stamp Christmas Shopping and colored her with Copic alcohol markers. I also chose a sentiment from the Christmas Greetings digital sentiment set. Added some glittery purple cardstock from my stash and also used one of my old scalloped dies. I want to invite you to my Instagram Page to watch my reel coloring this cutie. Will you color her with me?

Carrianne - Hi friends! I come BEARing gifts today with some help from this cutie. Imagine opening this gift box on Christmas Day and this adorable little bear popping out of it? Wouldn't he be the best gift ever?!! For my card, I used the digital image Gift Box Parcel Bella Christmas Bear and colored it with Copic Markers. The festive paper is from the Elvis Wesley Moose Themed Papers. I cut the bottom portion with a scalloped edged die and assembled it onto an A2 card base. The sentiment is from the Christmas Greetings bundle which includes a variety of greetings to finish off your holiday cards. I finished the card with red sequins. 

Copics used:

Bear - E44-43-42-41, (nose) C7-6-3, (ear) R20

Holly - YG67-63-61

Gift box (large) C6-5-3-1-0, (small) C3-2-1-0

Ribbon - R39-37-35-32

Berries - RV25, R21

Taty - The theme of the new challenge is gift and the Santa Sleigh digital stamp is perfect, the sleigh full of gifts is nice, I relaxed coloring all the little packages and the beautiful Santa Claus. 

For coloring I used Prismacolor pencils in the following numbers: 

gloves and boots 1050-1065-1063, holly 109-1005, 

dress and hat 1027-903-919-1087, face and nose 939-1014, 

ur 1086-939-289 , gift packages in various colors. 

I added some highlights with white Nuvo Drops and glitter to create the soft snow. 

The image is so adorable and I want it to be the star of the card. The final measurement is 3 1/2 inches.

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!
