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!

Now onto the fabulous inspiration from the Design Team.

Lou: I have again used the wonderful Festive Christmas soup stamps to create my card. I have kept my colour palate very autumnal with reds, golds and green. Except for the ribbon and lace, Everything else has been created using the stamp sets

Scatty Jan I adore the colours of Autumn and for my project this week I decorated a large leaf shaped card using the wonderful  Autunm Fall digi stamp collection, of course the star of the show had to be Mr Scarecrow. The Paper used is from Work and Play 10 Country Life 

Anjie - I have used the frabjous Winnie In Wonderland Collection CD to make  this. You can also get this in a download format HERE, and in smaller separate items HERE.

I have used Tweedledee image twice here.

Bev here with my seasonal inspiration, Autumn is my favourite time of year so I chose to use it as Colouring Therapy.... using Inspiring Foliage

Tracy - today I have used Serenity Earthstar and tag from Serenity collection. Loved colouring her in and using the Autumn colours 

Gail - I've gone for  Halloween make, a pre-made wooden stand decorated using spooktastic images from the Sundae of Seasons collection, available on CD-Rom here.

Katrina - I love the colour of trees in the autumn so for my inspiration card I've stamped a few tumbling leaves using the 'poinsettia' petal from the new Festive Christmas Soup stamps and coloured them with diluted Brushos. The sentiment was printed from the Daisydays CD straight onto some watercolour paper and I extended the twirly bits with a black fineliner pen.

Michelle  For this project I have used the Festive Christmas Collection  I love this collection so easy to make your christmas cards you can get them done so quick and easy

Claire C I've been playing with some of the gorgeous new Polkadoodles dies to make this card. I love these dies and they cut beautifully. I used Bubblicious Frames to create the base and layers. I made the little window using the Versatile Door/Window Die. The flowers and branches were created using Cherry Blossom Branch and Flowers 2. The sentiment is from Lemonade Fizz Stamp Soup set.

Ruth:  I've used the Twiggy and Toots cd to make a card for my Mum's birthday.  I covered the chipboard letters with paper and then coloured with Promarkers.  Chocolate colours always remind me of autumn.....!

Such fabulous creations!

Alysha -   This week I have created a lovely simple card using the Lavender Tea CD, come and jion us I look forward to seeing your creations, hugs Aly xx

Helen - Anyone for chocolate? Of course, its always time for chocolate in my book and Winnie seems to agree with me, she's just about to tuck in to a great big bar.  I've chosen to use Mmmmm Chocolate from the Sugar Sprinkles collection.  I coloured her with Copics and used some embellies from the collection including the chocolate bar which I also put into My Craft Artist to mak a chocolatey backing paper.

Lisa - I'm getting ahead with my Chrimbo cards for this year and I have used the Twiggy & Toots Festive Fun Download Collection. I faded 2 of the mistletoe digis to pale grey, placed them in opposite corners and merged with the the sentiment, before printing onto white linen card. This has been mat and layered with Kraft card and papers also from the download. Some twine, pearls and a little pine cone to decorate.

Carol - Love love love the gorgeous floral papers from the Winnie Wonderland Paper Heaven 6 download. Here I've teamed them with one of my favourite Polkadoodles fairies - Serenity Princess. Adding a background layer created using an around the page punch, a triple bow and a white rose. So quick and easy!

Pauline - I have used a super image from the the Work and Play 12 collection called 'Fast Food' along with some of the matching papers and a sentiment - I just love the sentiment!  I printed him three times so that I could add some decoupage layers and also printed the fries and drink from the embellies section.

Ruth: I've coloured the cute Footballer digi with Promarkers and then made a background of football pitches with some green card.  The digis are so versatile and can be enlarged without image quality loss!

Karon - I have a gift that I made for my daughter Shannon, who is leaving this weekend for college. I loved using the Lemonade Fizz Collection to make this 12" by 12" canvas.  Everything is off the collection, the quote I found on the internet. I added some dimension to the flowers and the butterfly, by adding layers and some beads...

Wow - fabulous and inspiring inspiration by the team this week.

Before we share the DT's wonderful projects, we are very pleased to welcome another two new members to the Polka Doodles family
Caz  and Lorna

Now onto this weeks Inspiration here at Polkadoodles

Naz - For this project I have used AMELIA CONTEMPLATING from Polkadoodles.

I coloured her using Copics and Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Pen.
The sentiment I have used for this project is from Work and Play 10 - Country Life.
These sentiments are the ones I've been using a lot on my projects, I like the look of circle sentiments.

Lorna I have used Twiggy n Toots Festive Fun Collection available as a CD. or if you prefer as a Download. More details can be found on my blog

Caz ..For my project, I have  gone with Red and White...I have made a Owl Gift bag..Really enjoyed making this bag.  So easy to make..And defo intend making more...They are fab..The Owl Bag template can be found on Twiggy n Toots Festive Fun Collection available as a CD. or if you prefer as a Download. Sentiment and tag can also be found in this collection..Along with papers ive used..(except lashes).

Ruth:  I've been busy making baby cards - there is an abundance of expectant mums at work!  I've used a cute spotty pink paper from the Serenity paper bundle download, made some large letters and then added my own twist to the banner.

Jessie - For my one colour plus white I chose brown, and went with every shade of brown that exists in my Polychromos set, so I used white plus 10 different shades of brown to colour up Octavia Whistful. One piece of patterned paper from the Violin Theme Paper Collection frame the image perfectly for a super clean and simple card! 

Julie -- I started with a Kraft base, then used white with shades of brown.  I just HAD to use these two beautiful deer.  They are so sweet, they speak to me.  It's deer hunting season right now here in NW WI, and while I know we have more deer in this state than people, I still don't like hunting season.  This card is my tribute to all the deer out there.  You can get the image individually here.  The whole Frosted Winter Octavia Collection Digital Download can be found here.  If you're more patient than me, and want the CD, that link is here. The shaped card design I used on this is also from Polkadoodles.  This is Elegant Card 2 SVG cutting file.  The sentiment is a freebie, found in the Polkadoodles store.

Bev here with my inspiration post. Anyone up to there eye's in 'stuff' at the moment with little time for crafting? So I made a quick card this week using the Winston collection & not a character in sight. There's just so much within the collection if you haven't tried it please do you won't be disappointed x

Claire C I've gone for a sepia tone for my little altered notebook and coloured up the beautiful  digi stamp 'Cinders'  (you can find her here). I've coloured the image with my Lyra pencils and used her to cover a little notebook, adding ribbon, lace bead trim and a little flower. I've inked around the edges with distress inks and added a little gilding wax to finish off

Anjie -  I have used 2 papers and lots of embellishments from the fabulous Picknix 3, Nordic Winter collection.. I have distressed the edges of the papers and added some drawn lines for added interest.

Our Winner (chosen by random org) for our Autumn/Fall Challenge is...

55- Nick
