Polkadoodle Challenge - Anything Goes or Happy Birthday

 It's time for a new Polkadoodle challenge and this week the theme is

Anything Goes

I've used one of the images from Winnie Celebrations 1 and used Promarkers to colour plus papers from Vintage Candy - I've used up the tiny bits from a previous project as hate to have any waste!  The sentiment is also from Winnie Celebrations 1 and I've layered it and the image onto some lilac card I found in my stash

Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodle Challenge - Black and White plus a Colour

It's time for a new Polkdoodles challenge and the theme is

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to use black and white plus a pop of coloured paper.  So I've kept mine really clean and simple (nearly forgot to add the pop of colour!)  I've used the Flower Flourish die set layered on top of the Posydoodles tag die and that has, in turn, been layered onto a Posydoodles Circles die.  The sentiment (Sentimentals 6x6 paper pack) has been cut using the tag die set too and the bow has been made using scraps from the Vintage Candy 6x6 paper pad.  Some half pearls from my stash, and I'm done!

Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodles Challenge - Something Cute

It's time for a new Polkdoodles challenge and the theme is

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to make something cute with a sentiment and I always need cute cards so used Tons of Wishes elephant and coloured her with Promarkers - the sentiment comes with the stamp and teamed it with papers from Vintage Candy 6x6 pack - the half pearls are to hide the paper joins as I just used strips underneath the main piece!  

Vellum circle has been cut with a Posydoodles Basics Circle die and the sentiment with one of the Posydoodles Basics Tag die.  And I knew that elephant charm I've had in my stash for years would come in handy one day!!  Embroidery thread also from my stash.

Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodles Challenge

It's time for a new Polkdoodles challenge and the theme is

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to make something with 4 equal squares so I've gone back into my stash and used a Winnie Die and various papers to create the 4 squares - the big dotted one is Vintage Candy 6x6 - I do save all my little scraps which were perfect for the die cut elements!  The vellum is from my stash and it wasn't long enough so the gap is hidden under the die cut!

I've added some half pearls from my stash and the card is complete!  Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodles - Spring Has Sprung New Release!

There is a wonderfully cute new release over at Polkadoodles!  Its called Spring Has Sprung and you can buy all the images in a bundle (which is the best value) here or individually.  The bundle has all 6 images in black and white or pre-coloured!

I've used Special Wishes for this card, using Promarkers to colour, plus adding half pearls to the centre of the flowers and glossy accents over the lettering.  I've used Vintage Candy papers plus embroidery thread and a charm from my stash, pink gems to finish!

Next up is Hello Spring, again coloured with Promarkers.  I embossed a background panel with a Sizzix die and then added blue organza ribbon and pink gems from my stash.

And finally, Just A Note, coloured with Promarkers plus half pearls on the flowers and I glittered the lettering (you just can't tell on the picture!)  I've used the fab Timeless Rose 6x6 paper pack for the backing and cut it using the Squarey Swirly Hearts Die and then embossed a border around the edge of the card.
