So, let's see the inspiration from the team for this week!

Kerri: Today I am sharing a card I made using Hey Lovely, Love Heart Die and Cup of Kindness Die. I stamped multiple images of the flowers and coloured them with Inktense Pencils. While the flowers were drying, I cut out multiple leaf die cuts from Cup of Kindness. I also cut one Love Heart Die. Once everything was cut out and dry, I assembled the card on a white base.

Enrica: Hi crafty friends! For my graduation project this week I’ve made a layered card using the adorable Winnie Graduation/You Passed digi stamp, coloured with Copic markers. There’s no need to add a lot… just a few stars and an embossed circle to complete the card. Have a wonderful weekend! xx

Jenn B: My sweet little granddaughter Raeana (RaeRae) graduated from Kindergarten a week ago, so this card is for her! I used one of the papers from the Spring Into Easter Paper digi pack, because RaeRae's favourite colour is blue. I printed Graduation You Passed Noodle Panda Bear and coloured him with Copics. I fussy cut him and attached him with foam dimensional tape. I printed the sentiment “How are you SO amazing?” from the Winnie Sunshine Delights Sentiments set and added it along the bottom of the card. Peace.

Revati: Hello crafty friends! Today, I’m sharing a sweet and simple graduation card featuring an adorable panda ready to celebrate. I used the Graduation You Passed – Noodle Panda Bear digital stamp along with a cheerful “So Proud Of You!” sentiment from the Winnie Celebrations 3 Sentiments digi set. I printed the image on a white panel and coloured it with my trusty alcohol markers. To add a touch of colour and dimension, I trimmed the panel slightly smaller than an A2 card base and layered it over a lovely Spring to Easter Patterned Paper digital design. It’s a clean and simple card with just the right amount of festive flair. Want a closer look? You can find all the details over on my blog!

Renske: For this graduation card, I got started with the Graduation You Passed digital stamp. I coloured it with my alcohol markers. I made the rolled-up diploma myself and treated it with Distress Ink and golden pearl glue. I also added dots to the background with this glue. I combined the image with the text “You Passed” from the Winnie Daisy Sentiment set. I hope you like it again. Happy Crafting.

Judy: The DT was asked to create a graduation-themed project for this week's inspiration. I chose to create a card using Graduation You Passed Noodle Panda. The sweet panda was coloured with Prismacolor Pencils and fussy cut. My simple designed background consists of white card stock. I added a strip of burgundy card stock and a silver rectangle which was embossed with a stars embossing folder. The sentiment is from the Winnie Celebrations 2 Sentiment Pack. Enamel dots were added to complete my graduation card design.

More gorgeous inspiration for you this week to use, big thanks to the team!

So, let's see the inspiration from the team for this week!

Today we are saying a big WELCOME to Terri & Patricia who are joining the team! Make sure you follow them on Social Media for all their inspiration!

Terri - Hello crafty peeps, its Terri here and I am delighted to have joined the Polkadoodles Design Team! I adore colouring (with lots of mediums but usually Copics and Coloured pencils) and for my first project I had so much fun combining the Vintage car Winnie Daisy Fairy Digi Stamp with the Garden river Country Scene background and colouring it up with Prismacolour Premier coloured pencils. As well as building up the colours with lots of light layers, when I had enough pigment down, I also used a blender pencil to create an even smoother blend.

The scene I created is approx 5.5 x 6 inches and would look great matted and layered onto a card front, with "Bon Voyage" stamped on it...however I decided to turn it into the cover of an inexpensive A5 notebook. I added a "Memories" sentiment from my stash, as I thought it would be lovely to use as a travel journal, but without having to make an actual journal or memory book (although it could be incorporated into a larger memory book if you wanted too. I hope you enjoy my first bit of inspiration and can't wait to bring you more! Stay Crafty, Terri xx

Patricia - Today I’m excited to share this cute Golf Themed Shaker tag, perfect for Father’s Day or any special occasion. I used the “Gnome Men Golf” digital set, which is so cute and so much fun to color! I went with a shaker design, adding a window filled with sequins in gold, green, and aqua for a fun, sparkly effect. I used my Copics maker to color the gnome and golf cart, with special attention to details like the mustache and golf clubs. For my background, I used one of the geometric teal patterned paper from Spring Gnomes pattern papers that pairs perfectly. I finished it off with a yellow satin ribbon and the sentiment Best Dad Ever from Men sentiment collection from Polkadoodles.

Tips:I use acetate for my shaker window.

Mix different sequin sizes for added movement and dimension.

I had so much fun creating this Shaker Tag- and it will be perfect add on for my Father’s Day gift. I'm thrilled to join this wonderful creative family and I hope this project inspires you as much as I enjoyed making it. See you in the next post, Patricia

Rachael - Hello! Happy Saturday and Happy challenge day! Today I"m sharing a couple of cards I made with the new Bee gnome printable stamps - I love this collection, it's so cute!

Julie - Life is Better In Flip Flops - It truly is. Flip Flops remind me of the beach and so does this flip floppy card. The card opens and flips into an easel type card for display, while the sentiment Starfish/Sandcastle Quotes and a sparkly pair of flip flops hold the card in place. Featuring a beachy image from Polkadoodles - Building Sandcastles. With a backdrop of ocean themed pattern paper from Winnie Sandcastle Pattern Paper pack 9. The sandcastle, pail, shovel and umbrella (Winnie Starfish Embellishments) were added with extra dimension to create playful fun for this vacation card. I finished the card off with glossy accents on Winnie’s sunglasses, some actual sand sprinkled on the beach, and a layer of glitter pen for the umbrella shining in the sun. Vacation mode set!! Full details on my blog . Instagram, Facebook

Rachael - I am a sucker for a teddy bear so I just adore this cute bear from the Party Time release - this is a not so mini, mini release that's perfect for Birthday celebration cards and projects, love it...

So, let's see the inspiration from the team for this week!

Today we are welcoming new Design Team member Sana – please follow her social media for all her lovely inspiration! Welcome to the team Sana! 💕

Sana I have made a really cute envelope for any occasion – you can also use it for junk journaling or scrapbooking. So-o many memories to keep! Here I have used Nature’s Beauty – a beautiful coloured Digi image with the sentiment which comes with it. The background paper for the envelope is from Helga the Hippo. The envelope size is 7 3/8 inches on both sides and I made it using an envelope maker. It’s the easiest project you can work on! The paper backgrounds are just so gorgeous in real life with vibrant colours. I did do some shading on the Beauty image with Distress Watercolor Pencils to make the image look more realistic. You don't have to if you don't want to – the coloured image is beautiful as it is!

Enrica  Hello! Today I am sharing these 3 cute tags using the lovely Rebel collection. I used the colours from the main bundle as my inspiration because all the papers are so lovely! See you next time!

Jenn B  I used 2 papers from the Winnie Sunshine Delights 6x6 paper pack, and I die-cut a crescent moon from the same paper. I used one of the cute witches & sentiments from the Hocus Pocus Witches Halloween set, coloured with Copics and fussy cut before attaching with foam dimensional tape.

Revati  Hello, crafty friends! Today I’m sharing a sweet and cheerful birthday card that just radiates summer vibes. I used the Butterfly Flowerpot Bundle digi stamp to create a vibrant scene filled with bright blooms and an adorable little butterfly. Coloured with my Spectrum Noir TriBlend Markers and enhanced with a touch of sparkle from a glitter brush pen, this card is full of colour and charm. The sentiment – “Sending Birthday Wishes” – comes from the Alcea Hollyhock Flowers digi stamp set, which also includes lovely coordinating papers and playful sentiments. To tie it all together, I mounted the panel on a bright yellow patterned paper from the Spring to Easter Printable Paper collection for an extra pop of sunshine. More details on my blog.

Renske: For this challenge, I created a tunnel card with a full 3D scene using the Toadstool Lily Ladybug digital stamp. I printed the image to fit inside the smallest tunnel layer and coloured it with alcohol markers. The background was ink-blended with Distress Inks to create soft grassy hills and a sky. I added extra details using die-cut grass, leaves, flowers, and a butterfly to complete the scene. The layers are built with foam tape to give the card depth and dimension. Hope you like it. Happy Crafting!

Judy - This week's inspiration card was created with the Birthday Celebration Party Bundle. I coloured the cake digi with Prismacolor Pencils and fussy cut it. One of the patterned papers was used on the top part of the card. The tag digi from the printables included in the bundle was printed and coloured. I printed one of the sentiments included in the bundle onto the tag. The tag was fussy cut and added to ribbon and a bow. Pearls were added for a finishing touch.
