Challenge 5, wk 2 - Craft, Card making & Scrapbooking challenge, Anything Goes
Welcome to our Craft & Card Making Challenge!
So let's see what the Design Team have been making...
We are delighted to welcome Robbie to the team this week - we're looking forward to sharing her lovely makes with you all and hope you'll all follow her (and the rest of the team) on social for a follow back too! Welcome, Robbie!
Robbie - Hello everyone, I have my first project to share with you. I am sharing a Mother's Day card using several digital products from Polkadoodles. The paper in the Blooms butterfly bundle was a pretty teal plaid and perfect for a feminine card. I used some alcohol markers to color the flower spray from Blooms 1 Flower bundle. The Spring Flower Mothers Day Friends greetings sentiments bundle had a fancy script sentiment. To finish my card I created a triple loop bow using some polka dot organdy ribbon from my stash.

Maria - Mother’s Day has already passed here in England, but it’s still coming up in my home country Germany – and my mum’s birthday is just around the corner as well. She’s a florist, so naturally she loves flowers. She’s usually a big fan of pink, but I think these soft pastel tones will make her happy too. The flowers from the Chamomile Flower Dies Set are just so adorable, don’t you think?
I coloured them using brushing pencils, just like I did with the leaves. The background was also created with the help of the pencils and the wonderful Happy Celebrations Stencil.
I’ve become a big fan of the Sentiment Strip Pack and used another lovely phrase from it here. And of course, the obligatory polka dots had to make an appearance again – both on the flowers and in the background!
Materials I used:
Happy Celebrations Emboss Ink Stencil: Happy Celebrations Emboss-ink Layering stencil for card making, crafts, scrapbooking - Polkadoodles card making, craft, scrapbooking supplies and digital stamp, svg, clipart printables

Taty - Hello creatives, today I share my DT inspiration for the Mother's Day theme. I created a greeting card for my mom, using the pre-colored image Waffle Cream Frosting Cupcake. The card is layered with two-tone blue cardstock, blue paper and digital paper featuring cupcakes from the collection Coffee Tea and Cake. I glued the cupcake image thickly and added glitter to the cream and the glossy accent to the wafer and the little pink bow. To embellish, I added small hearts by die-cutting paper cutouts of the digital pattern from the same collection Coffee Tea and Cake. Thanks to the fabulous pre-colored Polkaddodles collection, creating cards is quick and fun.

Julie - This card came together easily using a classic layout that uses a 4 x 5 1/2 inch piece of Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Paper (embossed with any embossing folder you choose) layered on an A2 sized color cardstock panel. Adding a secondary 2 inch x 5 1/2 inch strip of similar pattern paper gives the eye more to see through a 3 1/2 inch circle of vellum. On top of the vellum is where this cute little digi Earlie Hedghog Dandelion was added using foam tape. Earlie was colored using a combination of Copic Markers - Brown E57, E55, E53, E51. Teal B15, B11, B10. Green YG63, YG61. Orange YR68, YR21,YR14. Pink R85, R81. The butterfly was from an additional Earlie image, colored and added with foam tape and just a touch of sparkle. A Just For You Sentiment works perfectly for Mother's Day greeting, and a few sequins in a coordinating color finish the card off.

Challenge 4, wk 4 - Craft, Card making & Scrapbooking challenge, Anything Goes
So let's see what the Design Team have been making...
Liz - This cute MDF plaque/ sign can be decorated in so many ways, but for this project I used some shimmers from my stash, to keep a light look to it and to show the design already on it, I used the stamps from the Sending Love stamp set, as well as the matching die set, I love this little cutie mouse, so couldn't resist him peeking out between some plants, leaving some stamped directly on the base and some die cut to give different depths, after cutting out the taller flowers and using 3D foam to again add depth I highlighted the flower heads with some Sunbeam Shimmer stencil butter, I then added some tiny bits on the base to look like blossom off the flowers spreading in the breeze, The butterfly was coloured with copics and again die cut out, I then scored along the body so the wings lifted up, I finished it off with a sentiment from the Just A little Note stamp set.
Maria - I’ve become a little obsessed with the Retiform Technique lately, so for this birthday card I grabbed the wonderfully sweet Splendoured Love set and filled the card with lots of lovely details.
The Celebrate Word Die was the perfect match — I layered it for extra dimension and placed it beneath the tag from the Ribbon Heart Tag Dies set. The sentiment comes from the All Occasions Stamps set, while the die-cut hearts and bow complete my heartfelt birthday greeting beautifully.
This card is full of love, texture, and playful charm — just right for celebrating someone special.

Julie - This week's Design Team Project goal was a shaped tag - It's early in the morning when I start my projects for the day and coffee was on my mind, and so a coffee cup shaped tag was created. I printed a sheet of paper with Coffee & Cake printable papers , and also printed 2 copies of Latte Coffee Cup image onto the same piece of paper. These 2 cups were fussy cut from the printed paper and glued together to create a sturdy tag. I used a layer of ridged cardboard and fussy cut a sleeve for the coffee cup and added a dash of burlap. I colored a little coffee cup from the Work & Play Barista digis and paired it with a sentiment from Coffee, Tea and Cake Greetings. Added in a button from the Work & Play Barista elements and tied it all up with a bow to create a focal point on the coffee cup tag. I printed a copy of the coffee cup on white cardstock, cut the lid out and added a bit of shading and added it to the cup with some foam tape to create a realistic look. A little burlap string on the tag allowed me to add it to a paper bag of coffee beans so I can gift them to a coffee loving friend.

Taty - Hi creatives, today I'm sharing my DT inspiration, a quick project for those short on time but wanting to personalize their Easter greetings. I created a tag, starting with white cardstock and printing pink digital paper from the Flower Meadow collection. I shaded the edges of the tag with Distress Oxide in Worn Lipstick, and then, using Versafine black ink, I stamped the beautiful flowers from the Great Days Florals clear stamp collection. In the center, I glued the phrase from the Spring Flower Mothers collection.
