5 Years of Polkadoodles Celebration Giveaway!!!

It's our 5th Anniversary at Polkadoodles - time really has flown! And to celebrate we have decided to do something a little different! Lou and I are were part of the original Design Team right from day one along with Kath and En and I was so pleased when Nikky asked me to join her team! So thank you Nikky (and Kris!)

So to celebrate in the way that Polkadoodles does best, is to have a blog hop across the 5 of us but its no ordinary blog hop!

Nikky decided to design a special Digistamp for each of us 5 'Originals' along with a great little paper bundle which was also designed specifically for each teamie to co-ordinate with their kind of style. And to tempt you during the blog hop, each of us has some fab Polkadoodle candy to give away.


Here is my digi stamp used on an altered notebook which I KNOW will come in useful for all the lists and notes and reminders I need to keep! I'm always busy - either with work or crafting or my boys so the image is quite apt (although I don't wear such a fetching outfit!)

But thats not all! If you hop across all 5 blogs you'll find a special code that will give you each of the 5 mini downloads for free! But you have to hop to collect them all! Don't forget to pop back to the Polkadoodles Challenge blog to complete the hop and link up your own blog as one random winner will get to win a huge blog candy haul worth £100 of Polkadoodles goodies!

The draw date will stay open until 30 May and here are the rules:
1. You must visit and leave a comment on all 5 blog posts in the hop
2. Add a post to your own blog with a LINK to this post so your followers can hop with us
3. Add your post link to Mr Linky on the Polkadoodles Challenge blog
4. You must be a follower of this blogto win
5. Closing date is 30 May, winner will be announced 6 June and each individual team members will also announce their winners on 6 June too (so you actually have 6 chances to win!)

So are you ready to hop?! You can download my collection posted above by clicking on the image and using code PD5004 at the checkout to get it completely FREE (make sure you go through the INSTANT checkout or you'll have to wait for it!)

Leave me a comment under this post and on 6 June I will also draw three lucky winners from all the comments and each will win a copy of a Work and Play Collection (collections 1 to 3)!! To be in the draw you need to leave the comment and MUST be a follower of my blog too! And don't forget to link up your blog on the Polkadoodles Challenge blog via Mr Linky!

  70. Ruth, Happy 5th birthday to Polkadoodles. I have been a fan of Nikky's now for about 4-5 years and have many CDs and am now a Graph'it addict. Nikky has done a good job on the image of you. I bet you are both very proud and will look forward to seeing the images brought to life around Blogland/Facebook. I would love to be in with a chance of winning your candy. Here's to the next 5 years!!! Best wishes, Kym xxx
