Let's see what the Design Team have made for us this week!...
 It´s me, Tina - I have created a small set for the New Year's Eve party. It includes a party hat, a cracker, some photo accessories and straws. I used Winnie with the clock out from the big bundle Winnie Wonderland and colored her with Polychromos. The digital paper comes from Winnie Sugar Sprinkles - Heaven 7.

Scatty Jan For my New Year project I made a tag using the lovely image January ~ Knowledge is Everything. The sentiment I used is cut down from one from Winnie Winterland collection The flower is a die cut using Flowers 2 . I coloured using Polychromo Pencils and Distress Oxides for the background, flowers and cloud xx

Angie J - I have used Something to Say - January. This time I have made a Gift Tag to pop around the neck of a wine bottle. Coloured with copic markers. The stamped sign says "Happy Alcoholidays". A very simple and quick one layer Gift Tag!

Michelle I have used Winnie Fruit Punch Collection to make this Wine glass card I enlarged one of the embellishment to make the card and then I used a Digital image from the kit and coloured it up with copics

Ania - I used the Marigold digi stamp from the Darling Buds collection. The image I colored with alcohol markers and fussy-cut the image that I placed on the cosmos/night sky background  (done with alcohol inks on yupo paper).

Anjie -  I used the Frosted Winter collection to make this. I printed the papers onto card so I could distress the edges and mount them onto 3D foam. The purple card at the back is a shimmery purple which is perfect for this collection, although it doesn't show up in photos. I them fussy cut all the letters and numbers and mounted them on 3D foam as well. I then added a flower and some gems to finish it off.

Sharon  This week's inspiration is New Year/Celebrations.  For this challenge I decided to make some dividers for my diary.  I used the Wonderland  rubber stamps from Polkadoodles and the background paper was from the Winnie Wonderland Paper Heaven 4 - Printable Digital download set also from Polkadoodles.  The die cuts are Ribbon/Gift frames & Corners - Craft cutting die

Sabrina For this new challenge I decided to create a shadow box using the beautiful Winnie Winterland - North Pole diges included in my Winnie Winterland - Big Kahuna digital craft download Bundle. Inside the shadow I inserted some warm-colored sequins. The embellishments are also part of the Winnie Winterland - Big Kahuna digital craft download Bundle. For the coloring I used the Tombow Dual Brush

Stephanie here! It's the time of year for celebrations and it's always Tea Time in Wonderland! Winnie in Wonderland is the bundle used for this collaged mixed media canvas. I painted digistamp and collaged a few pieces from the design sheets. All the details can be found on my blog.

Bev here, I fancied trying to make an elegant, classy, black & white New Year card this week. Less is more I think here, I used a topper from Octavia Frosted Winter and glittered it then adhered it to a pearlised white mat & added that to the very ornate Ribbon/Gift Frame. I then turned a black A6 on it's side (landscape) mat and layered some backing paper from the same collection and then added the topper. To finish it off I also added a few gem stones. A really CAS design.

Merlina here with a card featuring Winnie-white-christmas-big-kahuna, she is so cute, isn't she?

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

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...

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

Jacki Now I don't usually do physical stamping I'm no good at it but I had to have these adorable Winnie stamps  EEEEkkk love them and the papers are some of the best (I know I'm bias lol) anyway for my card I have made a lattice style card (which is really easy) so I kept the rest of my card pretty simple as I wanted the stamp ( Winnie Lighting the way)and the lattice to be the focal points. The stamps come out like a dream so easy to use.

Helen - I just love the Winnie Winterland Collection such a fab selection of Christmas goodies you can find it right here. I love building a snowman and dressing him all up to keep out the cold so  I've used Frosty the Snowman as this cool image just reminds of doing just that

Carol - Today I used some of the Tags and Frames from the Winnie Winterland collection and made some Christmas gift tags. 

Lisa - I have made a Christmas card using the fabulous Holly Jolly 6x6 Christmas 6x6 Paper Pack and a digi image from Work & Play 5 - Festive Hollybobs Digital Papercrafting Kit but you can also find the image on its own here.

Norma this week I made a flip book,  using the new Winnie White Christmas bundle that I love, is full of nice images and I think it will be a perfect little gift for a Polkadoodles fan.

Ruth:   I've used one of the pre-coloured images from the Winnie White Christmas collection and printed it directly onto white linen effect cardstock.  I've glittered the wings and hat with stickles plus used watercolour pencils for the background which shows off the grain on the card.

How fab are the teams creations!!

You do not need to use Polkadoodles products to enter our challenges.

Have you seen all our wonderful new releases in store this week? We have so many new rubber and clear stamps, paper packs, digis, digi scrap kits all in store and released over the past couple of weeks so make sure you check them all out!

Now let's see what wonderful inspiration the Design Team have for you this week.

The DT's twist on the challenge theme is still Christmas after all we do need to get those Christmas creations made!....It's only 152 days or 21 Weeks left - Mwahahahaha :-) and if you want to join in with that theme then go for it, it's entirely your choice...

Tina - This time I have decorated for you a sled, which is drawn by 4 sweet reindeer. Colored with Polycolor Pens from Lyra. On the sled greet 2 owls for Christmas and bring beside a Christmas tree also many gifts with. You'll find the tree and the gifts out from Octavia - Frosted Winter. The owls and reindeer come from the set Twiggy & Toots. See my blog for more photos :-)

 

Angie J - So I had some Christmassy fun with a Winnie Winterland Collection Design Sheet.

I used Design Sheet 7 and repurposed a lolly jar and a notebook. It's hard to tell on the notebook, but the flowers have been shaped a bit for a slight 3D effect so they don't sit flat on the cover.

Michelle I have used Winnie Winter Land Collection I have made another tag using a digi image and coloured with copics I also used the Versatile  Door / Window / Flap  Die to make the door and it opens to see a snow princess.

Bev here and I couldn't resist a play with Robin Cuddles this fortnight, aren't they adorable? I had a go at water colouring. I think I need a bit more practice but it certainly gives a different look. The papers and sentiment are from Festive Christmas and the additional holly embellishment is a stamp on the Santa Claus set.

Scatty Jan for my project this week I made another pocket letter, I do love these there so much fun putting together, I mainly used Winnie Winter Land Collection adding in a few stamps from regal peacock set , I do love how everything will work together.

Anjie -  To make this I've used the fabulous Baked With Love Collection, again! You can also get this in download format should you want it right now. Lots more details on my blog.

Claire C - I've been playing with the gorgeous Regal Peacock stamps to make my Christmas project, those feathers make fantastic Christmas trees with a few glittery baubles!

Lou: Inspired by all the snowflakes created using the Regal Peacock stamp soup set, I had to have a go myself. I've teamed up my projects with Elegant Nest and Ribbon Gift die sets.More details on each card can be found on my blog.

Lots of fabulous creations to inspire you as always!

Our Winner and Top 3 of our Anything Goes Challenge Weeks 28/29 will be announced next Friday.
