Enrica - Hi crafty friends, let’s start thinking of Valentine’s day! For my inspiration project I’ve made three tags using cute birds from the Wings of Love Valentine collection: Love Bird Rainbow Valentine, Love Bird Heart Bunting Valentine and Love Bird Rose Flowers. I’ve colored these sweet images with Copic markers. Digital patterned papers are from Bella Bear Morning Coffee Digi Deal, Bob the Dog in a Boat Digi Deal, Spring Tons of Love paper patterns 1 and Helga Hippo - Pretty Printable Papers 1. All the sentiments are from the Spring Tons of Love greetings and the embellies are from the Barista Coffee/Cake bundle kit. Hope you like them as much as I do!!

Renske - Hi Everyone: I made this slider Valentine treat box using the Love Bird Heart Basket Valentine digital stamp, paired with the Love Bird Greetings Valentine sentiment. The Love Birds Valentine - Wings of Love printable papers added the perfect backdrop with their heart-filled designs. I coloured the sweet love birds with alcohol markers and highlighted them with a white gel pen. The slider box design is a fun way to present a little treat or gift, perfect for Valentine’s Day. Hope you like it. Happy Crafting My Instagram: @renske.wishes.you, Facebook: Renske.wishes.you

Judy: My project for this week's inspiration is a set of Valentine treat holders. I used 3 pre-colored digis, Love Bird Letter, Love Bird Cupid and Love Bird Heart. The "Be My Valentine" sentiment was stamped from the Cutie Pie 4x4" Stamp Set. The holders were constructed with heart shaped die cuts.

Revati - the Season of love is not complete without some florals. I created a frame using the Pretty Flower Wreath Digital Stamp. Love for me has for some reason been pinks and reds and flowers. I printed out this beautiful wreath onto some white cardstock and colored it using shades of pink and red alcohol markers. Up in a frame, these flowers will remain fresh forever! Happy Valentines.

Jenn B - I made a little tag for Valentine's Day, I used a piece of watercolor paper and used pink pigment powders blended on it, then sprayed some gold Mica spray. I used Love Bird Heart , colored with alcohol markers and fussy-cut then attached with foam dimensional tape. I added some glitter glue to the heart, eyelashes, & shoes. Finished off with some yellow & white floss-type ribbon.

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!

Rachael - Hi everyone! If you need a quick card, why not use our pre-coloured images. This cute bunny called love you bunches from bunny love collection, is perfect, teamed with a few papers and white embellies. It's really easy but so professional-looking! Gorgeous to say thank you, love you or for any wedding cards!

Julie - Hello again! Today I’m sharing a delightful fun fold Thank You card featuring the charming Polkadoodles Tons of Love – Flowers for You Elephant. With a backdrop of Pretty Spring printable papers, this card sets the perfect scene for this adorable Copic-coloured image. The playful “Thanks a Ton” sentiment complements the theme, while expressing gratitude. You can find the quick & easy card details on my blog ; Instagram ; Facebook

Carrianne - Hi there! Today, I’m excited to share a beautiful bouquet of flowers, featuring the Flower Meadow Colored Printable Image. I printed the Flower Meadow colored image and cut it out using a 5" stitched square die. I added some splatter for extra texture and dimension. I then adhered it to a green mat before attaching it to a soft pink card base. The sentiment is from the Winnie Daisy Greetings set. I absolutely love the convenience of using printable images, especially during the busy holiday season! For more creative inspiration, be sure to follow me on Instagram @crafticarri

Wendy - Hi everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and you're ready to get those crafty juices flowing again. We have a super fun challenge for you today using simple folds. I've created a dimensional pop-up card using the new Theo Penguin Winter Snow Days bundle. I combined the Snow Slide image with the Colouring Scene Mountains and Glaciers background to create a fun scene for these adorable penguins. I colored everything with my Copic markers, but remember we have pre-colored images as well. Thank you for looking!

Taty - Hi friends, I'm sharing my inspiration for the themed challenge. Thank you. I chose the Dencing Queen of Polkadoodles digital stamp which I colored with watercolors. I imagined the little dancer dancing to the hymn of life as a sign of gratitude. I created a card with the double Z fold, to have the pop-up effect. I placed the phrase of gratitude and flowers in the pop-up fold. The size of the closed card is 4 ¼ x 4 1/4 inches

Merja - I wanted to use this beautiful sunflower paper from Autumn Fall paper pattern 2 set. I added Thankful sentiment and the butterflies from Hearts and Flowers Butterfly 1 & 2 stamp sets. The butterflies are heat embossed and then coloured with alcohol markers. I also added some glitter glue on the blue butterfly before taping the butterflies on the background with foam tape to create some dimension.

Renske - Hello everyone! Today we are showing you January birthday ideas. I made a shaker tag this time using the digital stamp Celebration - Winnie Celebration Winter. I coloured it with my alcohol makers. On the background of the shaker, I am using a patterned paper from the Winnie Celebration 1 - digital paper set. I used the paper with the balloons to give it a festive touch. I used the sentiment Let's Party from the Winnie Celebrations kit 2 -sentiment set. Hope you like it. Happy Crafting! My Instagram: @renske.wishes.you, Facebook: Renske.wishes.you

Judy: The design team was asked to created a project, not a card, appropriate for a January Birthday for this week's inspiration. I made a gift bag and tag. The bag was constructed with white card stock and I added a band of patterned paper from 11 Icy Winter Papers Set 1 Theo Penguin. The focal is a shaker created with one of the new Theo Penguin digis, Sealed with a Gift Theo Penguin. I colored the digi with Prismacolor Pencils. The background of the shaker is from 10 Precoloured Background Scenes Bundle Winter and Ice Theo Penguin. I made a tag using dies from the Snow Globe Die Set.

Enrica - Happy New Year everyone and Happy Birthday to all of you who clebrate this month! For my project this week I’ve made a small bag using the sweet Champagne Celebration digital stamp colored with Copic and patterned paper from the Mod the cat printable bundle. I’ve added a sentiment from the Everyday greetings and quotes - Winnie Daisy Fairy and glittered foam. Have a wonderful Birthday!


Revati - Hello crafty friends, wishing you all a very happy new year! As I start this new year with some clean and simple cards, I started with a quick and elegant birthday card using the Alcea Hollyhock Flowers Bundle. This beautiful floral patterned paper covers the entire card front. The "Sending Birthday Wishes" sentiment also comes from the same bundle. I added a touch of sparkle to my flowers using some Spectrum Noir Glitter Brush Pens and some sequin mix.

Jenn B - I made a bookmark for my granddaughter Raeana, who turns 6 on January 15. I used Capricorn digital stamp, colored with alcohol markers and fussy-cut, then attached with foam dimensional tape. I used the Capricorn paper from the Zodiac signs - Printable Paper Patterns for the background. I used xx from the Birthday Sentiments & Greetings digital stamp set. I sponged the edges of the bookmark and added some little pearl stickers, then tied a floss-like ribbon on it.

Adam - I Made a birthday card in soft shades of pinks and blues by stamping the flowers on pink and blue craft paper from the Soft and Scrumptious paper pad. Die cut the flowers and leaves to be placed onto the background of printed tissue paper with a bit of ink shading. Next, I cut out some blue individual flowers and used dimensional tape to attach them over the matching flowers to add depth to the card front. Attached card front to a blue card base. Finally, I added the sentiment to the front stamped on matching blue card stock.
Products used:
1. PD8025 great occasions stamps
2. PD8753 Hydrangea Ribbon Stamp Matchables
3. PD8761 dies hydrangea ribbon
4. PD7983 Soft & Scrumptious craft paper
