Helen -  Just love the Summertime, have we had any yet in the good old UK.  Well our Winnies has and she's enjoying a bit of time in the garden.  She's from the Winnie Fruit Punch collection which you can find on CD or as a download in the store.  I've coloured her with copics and used papers and embellies from the collection to make a scene.

Karon - Summertime, I always think of the beautiful flowers that adorn our gardens during summertime, as I live in Canada most of our gardens are under snow 5 months of the year!  I just had to use the beautiful collection Dollie Daydream Goes East Collection for my card this week.  I layered the flowers and added a sentiment panel to the centre and a little bow to finish off.

Shelagh - My Summertime project is a wedding horse-shoe, made with my Great-niece in mind who is an attendant at her Aunt's wedding, late summer.  Everything I used was from the Winnie Fruit Punch collection, 2 circle dies, ribbon and some self adhesive pearls.

Alysha - My summertime project is a card with the gorgeous Winnie from the recent release Starfish and Sandcastles.

Tammi has used the lovely Winnie Fruit Punch collection to make her sweet card....

Pauline This gorgeous image is from theWinnie Fruit Punch collection , I have used elements from the Design Sheets, Papers, Blooms and Embellies sections.

Carol Today I've been stamping with the fabulous Summertime and Daisydays stamp sets and made a fun pop up slider card in warm summery colours.

Lisa My Summertime make uses elements and papers from the Winnie Fruit Punch Collection in pretty summery colours. Instead of an image I've layered up the butterfly as the focal point along with the fabulous sentiment.

Lovely creations to inspire you all with our Summertime challenge! 

Have a great weekend everyone. Thanks for sharing your creations with us, we love coming to visit and appreciate you taking part in our challenges.

Alysha This week I have 2 projects to show you using twine and ribbon. The first is a simple gift box I have added a stamped daisy on top from the Daisy Days Stamp Collection and some pretty papers.

The second is a card using the same set of stamps I have stamps daisies in a row and the background has been created using brusho's

  

Tammi Lynn -  Hello everyone.  So happy to be here, this is my first creation as part of the Polkadoodles Design team,  I have used Winnie Fruit Punch digi and paper, and pink paper from stash,  The image is colored with Copics. Used some dies, twine and dimensional foam squares to finish it off.

Helen - Here's our Winnie enjoying a little glass of something scrummy.  Sounds good to me on those long hot summer nights!! She's from the Winnie Fruit Punch Collection  which you can find on CD or as a download in the store. I have coloured her with Copics and used papers from the collection.

Karon - Ribbon or twine - I used ribbon :-)  I couldn't resist using the delightful Rose Budd Collection for my card this week.  I love all the elegance that comes with this collection.  The fabulous papers and gorgeous embellishments - I am never at a loss with this beautiful collection.

Shelagh - This week I have used the wonderful Winnie Fruit Punch for my creation, character, embellies, sentiment and word art. The paper is from the Winston collection.  A little bit of twine coloured with alcohol markers, some glitter and distress inks to finish off.

Carol - Here is my inspiration for the week using background paper and the gorgeous Winnie Wonderland Cheshire Cat from the Winnie in Wonderland collection. I coloured my image with copics. I added some twine around an oval of card and used it as a layer and then added some tea time trinkets from my stash, all tied together with more twine, hanging from a triple bow. 

Pauline - I'm so excited to have been invited to join the Polkadoodles Design team, thank you so much to Nikky and the team for asking me. For my first project I have used a Design Sheet and Papers from the Winston Delux Full Collection to create a masculine themed card. I printed the design sheet a couple of times so that I could add some extra layers of decoupage. I fussy cut the sentiment, sign and buttons and then added 3D Crystal Laquer to the buttons.

Lisa For my 'Add Ribbon or Twine' project I have used elements from the Winston Deluxe Full Collection. I printed the flowers, sentiment and papers onto white linen card and mat and layered with grey and lilac card. I wrapped the top panel with twine and lace. The cute Winston Bear Heartfelt has been coloured with alcohol markers and added to the card with fancy die cut oval. I've added a pearl heart and a ribbon bow and curled the petals and added some buttons for added dimension.

Fabulous inspiration by the Design Team.
