Polkadoodle Challenge - Anything Goes or Butterflies

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

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to use Butterflies in their projects so I've gone for clean and simple card, using some really glittery (but old as the glitter was a bit loose) gold card cut using one of the butterflies from the Butterfly Trio die.  To hide the missing glitter and the fact that it was virtually luminous, I cut three vellum layers and added some AB tiny gemstones to the body (the vellum wasn't stuck down properly when I took the photo so its a bit wonky!)  The little butterflies - Dotted Wings Butterfly - have been cut from better quality white glitter card.  The sentiment is from the Sentimentals 6x6 Paper Pack and it and the layer beneath have been cut with the Squarey Swirly Hearts Die

Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodle Challenge - Clean and Simple

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

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to make a Clean and Simple card and to add some ribbon or twine.  I've used the Squarey Swirly Hearts Die - cut the base from an offcut of card and then used the other two square dies to cut the layers.  The sentiment has been cut from the Sentimentals 6x6 paper pad and the pick paper is from Itsy Ditsy 6x6 paper pad.  Ribbon, embroidery thread and charm all from my stash

Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodles Challenge - Thank You or Anything Goes

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

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to make a Thank You card with an inky background and to keep it clean and simple.  I've used one of the quotes from the Sentimentals 6x6 paper pack and used the Squarey Swirly Hearts dies and one of the Posydoodles Basics Square dies to cut the different layers.  I've used ink sprays to create the background and then added some half pearls underneath the sentiment and scored a border around the edge of the card.

Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodles Challenge - Summer Fun and a Tag

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

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to the theme of Summer Fun and to add a tag (it was also to use citrus colours but I accidentally missed that part!)  I've used the cute Winnie Float Away digi, coloured her with Promarkers.  I cut a tag from a scrap of card blank using the Posydoodles Basics Tag die and the sentiment is from the Sentimentals 6x6 paper pack and cut with the banner die from the Basics Tag die set - I turned the sentiment round so I could cut both edges the same.

I've doodled a border around the edge of the image and also the card blank, added the tag and sentiment with some bakers twine I found in my stash and used up some of the many half pearls I seem to have collected!

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!
