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!

Daring Card Makers Challenge - Snowflakes

It's time for a new Daring Card Makers challenge and the theme for the week is

Snowflakes

I've made this simple card using a layered (offcuts from the cardblank and two vellum layers) Fancy Snowflake die from Polkadoodles and also the Merry Christmas die which again, I've layered twice for extra depth.

I've added some pale pink half pearls to the tips and centre of the snowflake and to the top of the card.  Good luck with the challenge!  I'd like to enter the following:

Daring Card Makers - Turn Up The Beads

It's Friday so time for a new Daring Cardmakers Challenge!  The theme has been set and it is:

Turn Up The Beads

So we want to see beads on your projects!  I've used a Polkadoodles die - Merry Christmas which I've cut three times from some deep red card I had in my stash and then layered together.

The burgundy ribbon is also from my stash along with the seed beads.  The cardstock that I've used is lightly ribbed off-white card which was donated to me from one of my cousins a number of years ago after she made all her Wedding stationery!



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!
