Polkadoodle Challenge - Anything Goes or Christmas / Winter

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

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to make something Christmas / Winter so I've used this very cute Winnie Wings which I've coloured with Promarkers and a little stickles.  I found some vellum in my stash and carefully ripped it plus added some die cut snowflakes.  Charm and half pearls are from my stash.

I've used an embossing board that I got years ago as a magazine freebie to create the scored line around the edge of the card.  Embroidery thread also from my stash.

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

Daring Cardmakers Challenge - July Inspirational Elements

As it's the first Friday of the month and time for a new Daring Cardmakers challenge, it is an elemental inspirational theme today.  And the inspiration can be drawn from:

You just need to use three of the elements in your creation.  I've used the texture, colour yellow, the round segmented pattern and the bead like pattern.

I've embossed the card blank with a Sizzix folder and added the yellow ribbon and wooden beads that I found in my stash (I was actually looking for something else at the time!)  The flower I've layered up from various ones I found lurking in the bottom of a box and added a button and ribbon to the centre to hide the hole (I must have recycled it!)

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

Anything Goes

And the sponsor this week is Kinda Cute.  I've used both images provided (because I couldn't decide which one to use!) and first up is Boy Playing Video Game which I've coloured with a combination of Promarkers and watercolour pencils.  Papers are from a no longer available collection from Funky Hand and the sentiment is a magazine freebie.

And I've used Mermaid Monster, coloured with watercolour pencils and I've used Echo Park splash papers plus waxed coloured cord and buttons from my stash.

Daring Card Makers - Wedding / Anniversary

I'm the host for the new Daring Card Makers challenge and the theme is

Wedding / Anniversary

I get a lot of requests to make these wordbooks and this one was requested by a work colleague as she was to be a bridesmaid at the Wedding.

Made from linen effect white card with my own letter templates.  The letters are added to the pages with foam pads and I've dotted liquid pearls around the edges.

Sizzix cut tag has been handwritten and I've used ribbon from my stash (bought especially as that is the bridesmaid colour!) and half pearls also from my stash.

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