Say It Loud!

I've made a bold birthday card using large die cut letters (I've used spray inks on some offcuts of card before cutting the letters) and layered onto silver card.  The little letters used the bits that were left over plus added some stars cut from various other left over bits!


Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodle Challenge - New Beginnings

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

Pedro and his Pinata

Sometimes its a bit tricky to make a Birthday card for a male who is in his mid teens, so here comes Pedro and his Pinata to the rescue from Dr Digi!  All coloured with Promarkers and lurid wallpaper from a rather old 6x6 paper pack.  Floorboards created with an offcut of kraft card.

It's Wednesday so time for a new I ❤ Promarkers challenge!  The theme this fortnight is

Polkadoodle Challenge - Pastel Easter

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

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to make an Easter card in pastel tones.  I had a look through my stash and found that the little Bunny in the Great Outdoors / Critters bundle was perfect to stamp on a card to send to my three nieces for Easter!  I've used Promarkers to colour plus I found a little packet of flower soft in my stash and added some fine glitter to it for their cute little tails.  The sentiment has been handwritten onto a Posydoodles Basics Tag die, cut from an offcut of card.

Good luck with the challenge!

Daring Card Makers - Elemental Inspiration

It's time for a new Daring Cardmakers challenge and the theme this week, as it is the first Friday of the month, is an elemental inspiration picture - you just need to use at least three elements in your creation (colour counts as one choice)



I've taken the colours, teacup, kraft card, squares and circles, lettering, flowers and the thread (well, I've used bakers twine!)

The papers are from my stash and are from Dovecraft Tea Time collection (around 11 years old!) and the image is from Jellypark which is no longer available; coloured with Promarkers with everything else from my stash.  The sentiment has been stamped with a Lili of the Valley rubber stamp


Good luck with the challenge!

Colour Crazy Challenge - Week 9 - Hetty Clare

It's time for a new Colour Crazy Challenge and the theme as always is

Anything Goes

This week we are sponsored by Hetty Clare and I've used Boy and Candles which I've coloured with Promarkers plus a little glitter glue on the flames.  I'm trying to use up all the digital papers that I've had printed in my stash for years so I've not got a clue where these are from but have a feeling they are Polkadoodles.


Good luck with the challenge!

It's Wednesday so time for a new I ❤ Promarkers challenge!  The theme this fortnight is
