Time to join the team & see what they've all been up to for this week's Magical/Fantasy Theme challenge...

Today we have an amazing Guest Designer joining us so please check out the wonderful work of MAARTJE and follow her blog and instagram! Welcome MAARTJE!

MAARTJE - Guest Designer - I created this fun Dolphin Mermaid card using Winnie Mermazing which you can find here...

EIVOR..  I used Octavia Moonfly Wistful and I have colored her with copic sketch. The sentiment I used is from the Winnie Lets Hang Out sentiment bundle...

 Jane -  I think I've said before that I have a real soft spot for Ula and I adore her dressed up as a unicorn. So as this was to be a magical card I naturally chose Ula Be A Unicorn. Don't you just love her and that fabulous sentiment quote too? I kept everything pretty simple - CAS is my favourite style -  and just coloured her up in pinks and purples. I added some sparkle with sequins, Wink of Stella and a silver glitter matt. 

Merja - I used Meribelle Mermaid Pretty image, Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles digi paper pack and text from Just Lovely sentiment pack. Because the beautiful image has so many details and would be hard to cut if you don't want to leave white space, I decided to add it and the text over the background paper using text editor. Then I coloured it with alcohol markers and white gel pen. I also added some Glossy Accents over the air bubbles (doesn't show well in the pic).

Nelly - For my card this week I used the image serenity-stardust-digital-craft-stamp-download/ and coloured her with alcohol markers. The design papers are also in the serenity collection.

Pam - I'm Bringing you my Magical Fantasy card with the other members of the Design Team.  I've selected the digital image Serenity Fairy Resting which also comes in the clear polymer stamp Serenity Magical. The image is printed 4" tall and coloured using my Copic markers, then fussy cut around. l used the papers from Polkadoodles, The Colour of Spring, for the two background pieces. The bottom border is Polkadoodles Mushroom Border die. I added the fabric flowers across the top for balance and the sentiment fishtail ('You Are My Most Treasured Friend from the Honeypie Collection Just Lovey) on the right to complete the card design. 

Nunzia - For today, I prepared an all occasion card with this charming Octavia Moonfly Wistful. I colored her with pencils, leaving an indefinite background to highlight the image. Then, I framed with different pieces of patterned papers from Spring Surprise and Hearts and Happiness paper packs. The matched sentiment is one of the Winnie Sunshine Delight Sentiment Bundle.

Ruth - I've used the cute Hello - Sparkle Unicorn and kept it very plain and simple, using the image as the focal point. Coloured with Promarkers plus lots of glitter on her hair and tail and some tiny little gems on the flowers. I've scored a border around the edge of the card and will add a personalised sentiment before I send it to the recipient. 

Yolanda - Hello again! Today I've created this super fun rocker card using this lovely Unicorn image form the Unicorn Sparkles collection. I added a rainbow and some waves with dies from my stash - hope you like it I think it's such a cute image!

Such lovely celebratory crafts ladies - we hope we've inspired you all this week!

Scatty Jan Using one of my favourite ever collections Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles , I have made a little (large) gift shop , stocked full of lovely seaside tat treasures. The Brick paper is from Work & Play 2 and the wooden paper is from the Distressed Wood paper collection - Lots more details and photo's on my blog xx

 

Claire C  For my DT project I've made a little concertina book with a stampbord cover using stamps from Tropical Underworld and coloured them with Graph'It Markers. I've stamped the images with Memento Inks and added distress inks in blues and green. The stampbord cover was then triple embossed with clear UTEE....

                                        

Anjie - I have made a door sign for our new summer house for this weeks challenge, using an MDF plaque. I used one of the plainer papers from the Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles collection as a back ground. I then used the Tropical Oceans stamp set to stamp some background images onto the paper. I then stamped the porthole and the beach hut. Finally I used a few of the MDF pieces from the Nautical large MDF embellies set Lots more info and photos on my blog.

Tracy -  So I have the perfect excuse to play with the wonderful Meribelle collection. I used the image  called  Swimming around.  I had a chance to sit down, relax, music on and colour with copics and finished off with prisma pencils to make picture pop out.

Michelle I have used Starfish and Sandcastles Collection for my project what else would I use 

for by the seaside theme I used papers, embellishments, creatures and image from the collection 

for the image I used Copics to colour...

Bev here with my seaside creation for you using a pre coloured topper from the oh so useful Bonbon Belles. I run along the beach 3 times a week so used the colour scheme I see as my inspiration.

Katrina - I've made a little canvas using the beach hut digi stamp from the Summertime collection and the fence/shoreline digi from Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles. I resized and arranged them in Craft Artist before printing onto tissue paper. This was glued onto the canvas and I painted over the top with acrylics.

Fabulous inspiration by the Design Team!

Now let's see what delights the Polkadoodles Design Team have for you this week - the DT's twist on the theme is Oh I Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside...if you want to join in with that theme then go for it!

Helen - Oh I do like to be beside the seaside too, even when it's cold and windy as so often here in the UK.  Our Winnie loves it too, sitting on the dock of the bay, dipping her toes and ooow look Merribelle Mermaid is taking a peep at her.  I have used two collections Starfish and Sandcastles, including Winnie and two backing papers merged together and lovely Meribelle Mermaid too.

Alysha - Hi there! Once again its Polkadoodle Challenge time as always its Anything Goes, this week I am “at the beach” with Winnie enjoying a bottle of Prosecco, as one should. So come and join us here at Polkadoodles for lots of fun inspiration and great prizes for joining in. Hugs Aly xx

Here I've used the Starfish and Sandcastles CD

Carol - how fabulous is it to be by the seaside?  For today's challenge inspiration I've used the very lovely Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles collection for my pre-coloured image, paper and embellishments.  I added a sentiment from the collection on a sun shape I created using clip art.

Pauline - I have used a super image from the the Winnie Starfish & Sandcastles CD collection, all of the gorgeous images on this CD are perfect for the Oh I do like to be beside the Seaside theme.  The papers, topper and elements are all from the CD, I have fussy cut lots of bits and pieces from a selection of the design sheets and from the embellies section.

Lisa - I've used the wonderful Winnie Building Sandcastles digi stamp and merged it with the palm tree digi stamp that can be found on the Winnie Starfish & Sandcastles VIP XXL Download to create a scene. I have coloured the scene with alcohol markers and simply mat and layered onto some green card and a tent fold card blank. 

Karon - I have used several collections for my card today.  Bonbon Belles Collection for the mermaid, beach huts, starfish, beach ball and all the papers. Then had to use the little girl swimmer from Work and Play 4 Collection. The sentiment comes form the Summertime Collection and the scene and fence is from the wonderful Cherryblossom Lane Collection.

Lots of fabulous Seaside inspiration for you.  You could always sneak out for the day

whilst the kids are in school :-)

Now lets see what the Design Team have to share this week.

Helen - I just love the Winnie in Wonderland collection, anything Wonderland is good by me.  I've used Winnie and the Cheshire Card, you can find her here.  I've coloured her with copics and used papers from the collection to make a teapot and embellies to give it that mad hatters tea party feel.

Alysha - This week I have created a shaped card using elements from both the Serenity Fairy Wishes CD and Little Kingdom CD, Looking forward to seeing your projects, hugs Aly xx

Tammi - I used Winnie Fruit Punch Collection and colored her with Copic markers. Big hugs everyone.

Pauline - I have used the gorgeous flowers from the Daisydays CD.  I resized the flowers in Word and fussy cut them before attaching them to a ribbon covered wreath using hot glue.  To finish I added a sentiment from the CD and a bow.

Carol - I have made a sweet gift using papers from Winnie Fruit Punch Big Bundle and a topper from Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime Collection and flowers, leaves and sentiment from the Daisydays Stamp Me set. 

Ruth:  I've kept it simple and used all elements from Lily Bug Love - I layered the image onto the shaped card and simply added liquid pearl dots and a sentiment embellishment with a button from my stash.  Really quick and easy especially if you're in a rush!

Lisa - I have made a shaped card using some large dies and the beautiful papers from Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles Bundle. To feed my mermaid addiction I've used the super cute Meribelle Pretty and added some pearls, net, seaweed, hand stitching and shells. Both Meribelle and the shells have been coloured with alcohol markers.  

Fabulous Design Team inspiration!
