As always, Lots of fabulous creations to inspire you this week...

Helen - I can't get enough of these Little Monsters and thought they would make a fun Winter Birthday card as obviously a MOnster is not just for Christmas!! You can find them right here at the store. I've used 3 monster from the download collection and stacked them on top of each other before colouring them in. I then used some of the lush papers and die cut them with the new scenic landscapes die 


Ruth:  I've used Winnie Chic cutting die for the body, background hair, hairband, dress and present.  For the hair bow and shoes I used Miss Winnie cutting die and for the top layer of hair I used Winnie Ballerina cutting die - all of the dies are compatible and interchangeable with one another so endless possibilities!  I used the skin tone card from the card stock pack and the hair is card from my own stash along with glittery card and half pearls.

Anna - For this birthday card I used Horace & Boo collection.

I colored this beautiful digi with my Prismacolor and I attached it on a sheet of acetate ... in the back I created a landscape with a background present in the bundle.

Carol - I've made a birthday card featuring a wintery image and background paper from  Octavia Frosted Winter collection and added a sentiment from Winnies Sugar Sprinkles Sentiments collection. I really love how the Polkadoodles collections all work together, so you always have the perfect paper, image and sentiment for any occasion.



Lisa - I've used a gorgeous January image called Heart on Your Sleeve, coloured with copics.  The papers are from the Belle Papillon paper pad and the sentiment is a stamp from the fab Build Your Own Male Sentiments set.


Lisa - My winter birthday card using elements from Octavia Moonfly Big Kahuna Download Bundle. I have coloured the image with Copics, added some sparkle and finished with a little Crackle & Glossy Accents:



Shylaa - I have used image, sentiment and frame from Horace & Boo collection. The image is watercoloured using camel water colour cakes.

Vannessa - I used the Frosty Penguins image, papers and tree images from the Octavia Frosted Winter Collection to make a wintery birthday card. The sentiment is from the Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime Collection as well.

Let's see what the Design Team have made for us this week!...

Jacki-   This week I have decided to make a Christmas canvas. It's a really easy one to make just to show you don't need a lot of bits to make one, I took 2 Baubles from a couple of collections (Winnie White Christmas and Twiggy and Toots) which can be found here  I added glitter and peel offs then sealed with a medium glaze,

Helen -  This week the DT are making projects that are not a card. So I decided to also go not Christmas to and make a scrapbook page. As we have a super cute new German Shepherd Puppy, Max and two kitties Maisie and Oscar who we call Oscie Boo!! what better than to team them up with the fabulous Horace and Boo collection? You can find here at the store.

Anjie - Ssssh I'm gate crashing the other team as I really wanted to join them for a week. I wonder if they'll notice. I made a box for this challenge using the Frosted Winter collection. Loads of photos on my blog for this, and also another extra make! So here is the box.

Judy - For my project this week I decided to make an altered clock. I have used several beautiful Christmas images and designer paper from the Work & Play 5 - Festive Hollybobs. The images are coloured with Copics, gell pen, Wink of Stella and glitter. The clock was painted with acrylic paint, Posca Pens and the snow was created by grading Styofoam and adding glitter.

Anna - Christmas is approaching and I thought to use the beautiful collection Winnie Winterland to make home decor. I made 3D letters with my Silhouette and then I covered them with one of the kit's cards ... there's the embarrassment of choice! I covered a plastic box with white rice paper, I put the lights and decorated with pre-painted images and the holly branches. Now it's in the beautiful view of my fireplace!

Lisa - I've used lots of flowers and leaves from Winnie White Christmas (plus a polystyrene ball) to make a sparkly Christmas bauble.

Carol - This week I decided to make a new Christmas wreath using flowers from Twiggy and Toots Festive Fun collection adorned with lots of glitter, sparkly bits and a fabulous bow.

Lisa - I have made a fold out recipe page for a Christmas Album using papers and embellishments from Work & Play 5 Festive Hollybobs Full Download Collection.

Vannessa - I am really bad at wrapping Christmas presents (My recipients normally need a hacksaw to get through all the layers of tape on them!), so I thought I would decorate a gift bag, so all I need to do is add some tissue paper and pop the present inside. Nice and easy then! I used another of these gorgeous images from the Octavia Frosted Winter Collection; this time I used Frosted Spines. How cute is this hedgehog?!

Shylaa: Today I share you a page in my art journal using printable images from Winne White Christmas collections. The back ground was done using Paper from the same bundle printed on a tissue and got my own decoupage tissue.Adhered the fussy cut images to the journal page and finished it by adding sequins....

Ruth:  I've made two cute crackers and gift boxes using papers from Winnie White Christmas and added sparkly thin tinsel plus some really cute tree baubles I bought from a very well known bargain retailer.  I made the bows with offcuts of card (so not to waste anything) and put some treats inside the boxes and crackers.

As always, Lots of fabulous creations to inspire you this week...

Ruth:  I've gone for something simple - using papers from Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles - the plain papers, I've cut lots of stars and added them in an explosion!  A little bit of faux stitching with a black fine liner and the card is complete!

Jacki - Lil' Miss Sugarpops is one of the cutest collections I think. for my card I have used one of the precoloured images to make a Happy independence Day card the papers are from the Winnie special Moments collection you can find Lil' Miss Sugarpops Here and Winnie Here.

Helen - Ula's life, such a fabulous collection of lovely images I used her with some red, white and blue papers from the Winnie Starfish and Sandcastle collection to. You can find Ula here I just love her sweet little face just adorable.

Craftica - For the challenge of the week we Polkadoodles DT created very beautiful projects 

using colors Blue Red and White just in time to get into the July mood I used the Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles Design Sheet .  Just had to print cut and use to decorate my planner weekly spread.

Carol - For my inspiration this week I've used some background paper from the Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles collection and added a pre-coloured image from the Horace and Boo collection - Scooting Around.

Karon - I have used the wonderful download collection of Daisydays.  All the elements are from this collection.  I have layered up the papers and then added some dimension to the flowers.  All the edges of all the layers have been inked.

Lisa - I have got Christmas on my mind already so I've used the Work & Play 5 Festive Hollybobs Full Download Collection to create a Red, White and Blue Christmas Card.

Shylaa: I have created a fun layout with pre-coloured image from the Horace and Boo collection - Scooting Around. Stenciled background with distress paints and adhered all the images using foam tape. Added some 3d stickles over the flowers to glitter

Such fabulous creations.

Tina: I created for you a card and used some from the collection Winnie Special Moments. That Image Windy Day, digital Paper from Paper Heaven 2 and a frame and dragonfly. I colored Winnie with Polychromos and my flowers are made from Foamiran.

Michelle - I am using Lilly Bug Love Collection for my project I love this little love bug I have used the papers, digi image all from this collection

Claire C - I've used papers and stamps from the beautiful Belle Papillon Paper Craft Kit and added some stencilled polkadots to make this card. I've also used lots of Polkadoodles dies to create the flower and foliage - Flower Flourish, Birdhouse Doublet Set, Flowers 1.

Bev here with a cute 5x5 card created from Horace & Boo Big Kahuna. I used a combination of papers, sentiment and design sheet. Shaping the flowers to give dimension and inking to give an aged look.

Anjie - I've used the Winnie In Winterland collection. Both of the backing papers have dots on them and then I've used the oval frame die from the Bubbleicious die set which also has a pin dot line around the edges. I've mounted the top layer of paper and the topper onto 3D foam. I've layered up some of the beautiful flowers and added some stamens to them.
