Merja - This time I created these cute Halloween decorations (or they can also be used as a gift tag). I printed the center pieces from Halloween Trick or Treat Word Art and cut them with Posydoodles Circles die. I also printed a couple papers from Halloween Trick or Treat papers bundle 1 and used the rosette technique on them. The center pieces are glued with a hot glue so that they really stay in place. Lastly I added satin ribbons so you can hang them where you want. These were fun and quite easy to do when you got familiar with the technique 😊

RACHAEL - I love creating these rosettes - Halloween is always the perfect time for them! I used this cute Witch Cauldron Halloween Gnome digital stamp and added colour-co-ordinated papers and some mesh. To make the rosettes I just added paper straws so they're sticks - great for parties or to give away as a different Trick or Treat to all that candy!

Julie Nagle - Our challenge this time for the design team was to create something for a Halloween Party - and no Halloween Party would be complete without candy, right?! So I knew I had to make a party favor of some type that could be filled with Spook-tacular treats! My project focused on Ghastly Ghosts because they are just so darn cute and I knew they would be super fun to create with. They also paired perfectly with Halloween Trick or Treat Printable Papers! The party favors are easily constructed and instructions are included on my blog. The adorable little images were colored using Copic Markers, and the sentiments were included in the Ghastly Ghost download.These playful little treats are perfect for your Halloween party or for delighting trick-or-treaters. Follow me on Instagram or Facebook

Wendy L - I made this trio of tags using the Spellbinding Witches printable stamps - aren't they just gorgeous?!! As always i coloured with my Copics but I forgot to note down the color combo for you this week - I particularly love the one on the left with the reds and purples!

Beautiful Autumn inspiration! WOW!

ENRICA - Hi everyone! For my Autumn project this week I’ve made two tags using elements from the super cute Freddy Fox release: the digital stamps are Leaves Autumn Fall Fox and Toadstool woodland log Autumn Fall Fox (colored with Copic), the patterned papers are from the Autumn Fall paper patterns 2 and the embellishments are from the Ephemera Autumn Fall Fox. I’ve added some stencils to the background to create more movement. These cheery critters are just perfect to welcome September and its amazing colors!

Christine - Today I`m excited to share a fun little project with you. I printed out Latte Coffe from the Freddy fox collection pretty big, I`d say around 14 cm in height and turned this little cutie into a double slider gift card holder. Love how fun and cute this turned out. I will for sure be making more of those. I paper pieced the cup with pattern paper from Autumn Fall paper patterns 2. The sentiment on the slider card is from the Serenity Fairy wishes bundle.

I colored him up with my Copic markers. My IG: ckndesign_craft

Judy: My card for this week's challenge features Autumn colors and was created with Leo Lion Digital Stamp. I made a rocker style card. The patterned background paper is from

Zodiac Co-ordinates Printable Paper Patterns. I used a sentiment from Birthday Sentiments & Greetings Digital Stamps. The flowers came from the Ephemera Autumn Fox Download.

Renske - For this Polkadoodles Challenge, the design team crafted autumn-themed cards showcasing the vibrant colours of fall. I designed a delightful autumn fox card using the "Poppy Flowers Autumn Fall Fox" digital stamp and enhanced it with the "Nuts About You" clear stamp set. The card features a background created with Distress Inks and a tree stencil, layered grass panels, and charming details like leaves and mushrooms from the clear stamp set. I completed the design with a sentiment from the "Autumn Fall Greetings" set. This card beautifully celebrates the essence of autumn with its warm and inviting hues. Hope you like it!

Irre - Hello. I have a new canvas for you today. For this project, I used a digital stamp from the January collection that is called Nature lover. I colored the stamp with Copic alcohol markers. I adhered the stamp to a round canvas and added texture around the edges with a stencil and modeling paste. Then, I painted the edges with white gesso and colored the edges with orange and yellow watercolors. I decorated the canvas with flowers, die-cut leaves, metal butterflies, and a metal cone. Instagram: @scrapbyirre

Julie Nagle - This week’s Design Team Challenge was to create a card using an object from PolkaDoodles digital images to create a September Birthday Card. So many options - whatever would I choose?! My Son’s birthday is in September so instantly I thought of him. Last year he spent his birthday in Nova Scotia, Canada which led to the creation of this card. The Lighthouse from Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles proved to be just perfect for the background technique I had planned to apply to this card. I blended using PolkaDoodles Blending Brushes with tones of blue/green distress inks onto the background using a random pebble stencil for the water, and a tea colored ink for sandy beach. A pallet knife and Grit paste allowed me to mimic the crashing waves at the shoreline of the lighthouse. I Sea it’s Your Birthday was the perfect sentiment for this charming coastal creation. Dive in and give this card a try! Further details can be found on my blog.

Wendy - For today's challenge, I tried something a little different. I used a pre-colored image. I absolutely adore the stunning colors on thIS Fantasy Moon image and wanted to use it on my card. I did pull some of the colors from the image to create a soft, simple background using my Copic markers. I also added Wink of Stella (on the moon) and some Unicorn Pearls. I love how it turned out! Thank you for looking!

Background:

Blue - BG0000, B0000, B000, B00, 0

Pink - RV0000, RV000, RV10, 0

Purple - V0000, V000, V01, 0

Green - YG0000, G20, G40, 0

Merja - On my card I used Autumn/Fall digi stamp set that includes both black/white and coloured versions of autumn themed images. I used the black/white versions of mushrooms and coloured them with Distress Inks and alcohol markers. I added glossy accents and white gel pen over the spots. I also printed some precoloured leaves. The background paper is from Autumn Fall papers 3 set. I added a sentiment over it in a text editor program before printing it. Then I added the mushrooms and leaves using tape and foam tape to create some dimension.

JANELLE - Hello crafty friends! Here's a fun versatile fall birthday card using distress inks along with the Daisy Dragonfly Bundle 🧡💜💚 For more inspiration check out my IG page @janelle.paper.sparkles
