Polkadoodle Challenge - Anything Goes or Christmas Sentiments

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

Anything Goes

I'm trying to use up stuff I already have in my stash so this is where the wide satin mint green ribbon comes in - it was a donation from when my cousin got married (nearly 9 years ago) and it was left over from making her Wedding invitations!  It went perfectly with the paper from Holly Jolly.  I've triple cut the Merry Christmas die from left over scraps of card and its hung on the aperture with a strip of acetate recycled from a school shirt packaging.  The circle has been cut using the smallest Posydoodles Basics Circles Dies

Good luck with the challenge!

Crimbo Crackers Challenge 200 - Couples

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

Couples

I've used a Jellypark image that is sadly no longer available, coloured with Promarkers and I've used off-cuts from Polkadoodles Holly Jolly 6x6 paper pack and the image comes from the same pack.

I found the ribbon in my stash and to finish, I've distressed the edges of the papers and the image, adding a dotted line of liquid pearls.

Good luck with the challenge!  I'd like to enter the following:

Crimbo Crackers Challenge 176 - Anything Goes

Time for a new Crimbo Crackers challenge and the theme is

Anything Goes

I've made this cute card using papers from Polkadoodles - Holly Jolly 6x6 papers which I've layered onto a kraft card blank.  I used some scraps of kraft card to write the sentiment and also to layer the vellum die cut circle onto.

The mistletoe die is unbranded and I've cut it from a scrap of dark green pearlescent card from my stash; I've then added some different sized half pearls as the berries.

Good luck with the challenge!  I'd like to enter the following:

Crimbo Crackers Challenge 167 - Anything Goes

Welcome to a new Crimbo Crackers challenge!  The theme for the fortnight is

Anything Goes

I've made a Christmas Tree using a box template I found on google and then cut out all the little tags (backed them onto off cuts of kraft card first) from the Holly Jolly 6x6 paper pack.  I wrapped some bakers twine around the tree first so I could then add the pegs to make it look like they were clipped to it.  When actually I've used foam pads underneath the numbers to stick them to the tree - was just a lot easier!

Something a bit different and quirky!  Good luck with the challenge!  I'd like to enter the following:

Polkadoodle Challenge - Anything Goes or Use Flowers

It's time for a new Polkaoodles challenge and the theme as always is

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to use flowers and I've used a number of different products that were recently part of the One Day Special on Hochanda.  First up is the Merry Christmas die in the central panel plus the Poinsettia Lace die (cut with two different shades of red card) and I've added tiny micro beads to the centres.

The papers are offcuts from a previous project and come from the Holly Jolly 6x6 paper pack.  A little bit of inking and the card is complete!

Ice Skates

Today is the final of the One Day Special on Hochanda for Polkadoodles and for my sample today I've used the Ice Skates die and I've used some very glittery card with contrasting bow and skates.  The papers are from the Holly Jolly 6x6 paper pack.

The die cut centre circle has been cut with the Fanciful Circles die.

Snowman Poop!

And here is another from me as Polkadoodles is currently on a One Day Special on Hochanda!  I've used papers from Holly Jolly 6x6 paper pack and the wonderful Happy Festive Snowman die.  I've handwritten the sentiment - Snowman Poop!

The 'poop' are actually mini marshmallows and I had to separate the white from all the pink ones that I bought!
