Polkadoodle Challenge - Christmas or Anything Goes

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

Anything Goes

The DT were asked to make something Christmas and here is my creation.  I've made a gift box using a sheet of linen effect white card from my stash and then made the big bow using papers from the Heartfelt 8x8 paper pack and then added a cute pre coloured penguin from Winnie White Christmas download.

I've used one of the Posydoodles Basic Tag to cut the tag on which the image is printed.  The wooden star and buttons are all from my stash along with the bakers twine.  Good luck with the challenge!  I'd like to enter the following:

Polkadoodle Challenge - Anything Goes or Not A Card

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

Anything Goes

The Design Team were challenge to make something other than a card and I've made these cute crackers and gift boxes using papers from Winnie White Christmas and added sparkly thin tinsel plus some really cute tree baubles I bought from Primark.  The tops of the baubles came off really easy with a twist (well, what do you expect when you're getting 30 for £2?!) and I used glossy accents to stick them to the boxes and crackers.

I made the bows with offcuts of card (so not to waste anything) and put some treats inside the boxes and crackers.  They were actually quite quick to make - just had to be patient with the glossy accents drying!

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

Colour Crazy Challenge - Week 47 - Polkadoodles

It's Friday so time for another Colour Crazy challenge!  And, as always, the theme is

Anything Goes

And for the second week we are sponsored by Polkadoodles!  I've used Winnie Wings, coloured her up with Promarkers plus glitter glue and made a half circle card with papers from the same Winnie White Christmas collection.

I've added dots of liquid pearls around the edges plus a sentiment from the same collection, and the snowflakes are die cuts with pink half pearl centres.

Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodle Challenge - Anything Goes or Christmas

The current Polkadoodle challenge is, as always, a theme of

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to make something Christmas so I've gone for the Winnie White Christmas collection and used one of the pre coloured images.  The colours are really soft and gentle and are also continued in the papers.  I've gone for a distressed look, added one of the sentiments which I layered onto one of the papers using Pic Monkey.

Half pearls, organza and satin ribbons from my stash (and matched the colour ways perfectly!) Snowflake charm and bakers twine also from my stash.  Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodle Challenge - Anything Goes or Non Card Winter Themed

The current Polkadoodle challenge theme, as always is

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to create a Winter Themed Non Card.  I've made a cute kraft card gift box - the box die is from Sizzix (it came with the Big Shot!) and I've used papers from Winnie White Christmas to make the gift bow - layered onto the off cuts of kraft card from making the box.

The tag is also from the collection - I added the wording using Pic Monkey and then added some thin red satin ribbon from my stash.  The little stars were cut from glittered cardstock (amazing that I had some in the same colours!!) using a little X Cut die.

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

Crimbo Crackers Challenge 144 - Quick and Easy

It's time for a new Crimbo Crackers challenge and the theme I've set for the fortnight is:

Quick and Easy

I've made a card using one of the pre coloured image panels from the Polkadoodles Winnie White Christmas collection.  I've added the sentiment using a free graphics programme and then added extra holly as decoupage and some small X cut glittery stars.  Half pearls have been added as berries to the holly.

And I think it took me about 15 minutes to make the card!

Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodle Challenge - Anything Goes or Christmas

The current Polkadoodle challenge is, as always:

Anything Goes

The Design Team were challenged to create something Christmas.  I've used one of the pre-coloured images from the Winnie White Christmas collection and printed it directly onto white linen effect cardstock.  I've glittered the wings and hat with stickles plus used watercolour pencils for the background which shows off the grain on the card.

I've cut the image using the Bubbleicious Frame, added it with foam pads to an offcut of card - left over from making a square card from a sheet of A4.  Ribbon and buttons from my stash.

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