Good morning, I'm here with a make for the <a href="https://polkadoodlescraft.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles Craft blog</a> today. And I have a little tutorial for you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am using the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/ho-ho-holly-11-clear-polymer-stamp-set/" target="_blank">Ho Ho Holly stamp set,</a> <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/posydoodles-basics-circles-dies/" target="_blank">Posydoodles Basics circles dies</a>, black ink, some distress inks and a stamping platform.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgje2waWx3fXozSIu9hchYH7DUZfXCxWHndOt7QQ8fv8l7SqGb5Plt2Kp3yrL_eSnYx-dStuLt-KjxSarp2Z8Tqg-eBLhHxQnVjKofkPpwXfsCCdFYjIS5DnRPql324t4wvzBkhzV1zGiw/s1600/20191129_180605.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1066" data-original-width="1600" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgje2waWx3fXozSIu9hchYH7DUZfXCxWHndOt7QQ8fv8l7SqGb5Plt2Kp3yrL_eSnYx-dStuLt-KjxSarp2Z8Tqg-eBLhHxQnVjKofkPpwXfsCCdFYjIS5DnRPql324t4wvzBkhzV1zGiw/s320/20191129_180605.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I started by cutting out a circle in white stamping card and placing it over some scrap paper in my stamping platform. I then used a black ink to stamps the holly stamp around the edges of the circle. I used the scrap paper underneath so as not to get the excess ink on my stamping platform mat. I also stamped a sentiment into the middle of the wreath I created.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then stamped out the same Holly stamp 5 more times onto more stamping card. I then used a green distress ink and a red one to colour the Holly and the berries in. I then fussy cut them out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I used a 15x15cm card blank. I inked lightly around the edges of a 14.5cm square piece of card and mounted onto the card base using 3D foam. I then mounted the Holly wreath in the centre of the card, and mounted the Holly I had fussy cut onto 3D foam pads and placed over the top of the wreath. I did this to give the card some dimension and so that you could see the full stamp underneath the 3D layer when looking from the side. I finished the card off with 3 red gems at the bottom. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This creates a simple but elegant Christmas card.</div>

Good morning to you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm here with another make for the Polkadoodles blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm aware that Christmas will be on us before we know it, so thought I would crack on and get a start on my gift tags.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I start by cutting a tag out of Kraft card using the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/posydoodles-basics-tags-dies/" target="_blank">Posydoodles Basics tags die set</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then chose 4 coordinating papers from the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/frosted-winter-octavia-digital-downloadable-cd-rom-crafting-collection/" target="_blank">Frosted Winter download collection</a> and cut them out using the same tag. I then trimmed them down a bit so they would be smaller than the tag cut out of Kraft card. Then I fold them in half down the length and cut. Then cut those lengths into 4. I then choose a distress ink and ink around the edges of all the pieces.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglaRD4L0GrdGsQ2wO7zwGoSYTminUOIW3nmwvpziRgsvU6BwyQnCJhg3Pl3cprGLo2yVhxy5rMD8ue8AEQLP-lMCEgxWq9RC5gSezX6iQu-pFmKxJIdiCGqQejmusMN0cqez5XSBnDsok/s1600/20191007_194454.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="976" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglaRD4L0GrdGsQ2wO7zwGoSYTminUOIW3nmwvpziRgsvU6BwyQnCJhg3Pl3cprGLo2yVhxy5rMD8ue8AEQLP-lMCEgxWq9RC5gSezX6iQu-pFmKxJIdiCGqQejmusMN0cqez5XSBnDsok/s320/20191007_194454.jpg" width="195" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then glue the small pieces onto the Kraft tag and add some faux stitching. Sometimes I use a white pen, and sometimes a black.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWlQ9m8eYBlQpjmrwNMg85qIUvGIvzTdvV4sAfXuBPQYvIzkonnlnBo_Bc5_qTw49IHLDcN_iCJCmlp_bGs9aLqPTZpGRaT1TRIM2SjQvNa5aTZpIk6050-5pBX2A6jTA61TIoW0lXmp4/s1600/20191021_095127.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1303" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWlQ9m8eYBlQpjmrwNMg85qIUvGIvzTdvV4sAfXuBPQYvIzkonnlnBo_Bc5_qTw49IHLDcN_iCJCmlp_bGs9aLqPTZpGRaT1TRIM2SjQvNa5aTZpIk6050-5pBX2A6jTA61TIoW0lXmp4/s320/20191021_095127.jpg" width="260" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Next I choose the images I would like to use and print them all out and sit and have a fussy cutting session. I like to leave a white border around the images to make them pop a little, but some people don't like that, so it's up to you.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji96WmgRpv3xgJ8EtgGfzOZ_d7q5L1JFkrZZF9zOyCT0n58Sfazk6d9GBAkfLayBwGKMI4vD9GAUzo98l-skB_yBRN3R7YKYNm2iFndvLnz5XW1At31O8l4ymGIan59Rt9_NTOrX5k1_s/s1600/20191021_112709.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1241" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji96WmgRpv3xgJ8EtgGfzOZ_d7q5L1JFkrZZF9zOyCT0n58Sfazk6d9GBAkfLayBwGKMI4vD9GAUzo98l-skB_yBRN3R7YKYNm2iFndvLnz5XW1At31O8l4ymGIan59Rt9_NTOrX5k1_s/s320/20191021_112709.jpg" width="248" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then mount everything onto 3D foam and stick in place where you like them on the tag. I added some stamens and some berries and finished it off with some bakers twine through the hole.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrpfujbwiuJs9z8UYCpNfw98DfD9H9lNj3VqyoHMf8UFWfoUwWTaj0hsxlqAmSix15AC2-wTz-LcHU6QutRbzp47GsKGB9ZT-FDSMouyps_cHPK2czuWayFl83bKpz7BoEQqDcnQi672I/s1600/20191021_112740.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1155" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrpfujbwiuJs9z8UYCpNfw98DfD9H9lNj3VqyoHMf8UFWfoUwWTaj0hsxlqAmSix15AC2-wTz-LcHU6QutRbzp47GsKGB9ZT-FDSMouyps_cHPK2czuWayFl83bKpz7BoEQqDcnQi672I/s320/20191021_112740.jpg" width="231" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And there you have it. I also have lots of papers and images left to make more tags so I will share them with you another time.</div>

Good morning constant reader. I've got another tutorial for you today, once again using <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles</a> products.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I started with an A4 sheet of card that I had made into a background ages ago using some spray inks. I cut a 14.5cm square piece of card for the main layer, and then used the large die from the Polkadoodles <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/stitched-pierced-nested-circles-craft-cutting-die-set/" target="_blank">Stitched Circles die set</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then used a black ink to stamp the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/graceful-flower-girl-3-clear-polymer-silhouette-stamps/" target="_blank">Graceful Flower girl</a> image and sentiment onto the circle.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTRGyYi9TC1KCPizXMn45dKY3ZEtPbvp0FvvdfrJPlbugCgtUShFQgYnT85nzf3axRjDAxPnAP4J-LE7hSCwxbX6l3n4Dq7lb36L2c1pJ3tDOeDip4xyfDy0XgSoPbx_64fD_ZD8-BV3Y/s1600/20191021_120836.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1243" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTRGyYi9TC1KCPizXMn45dKY3ZEtPbvp0FvvdfrJPlbugCgtUShFQgYnT85nzf3axRjDAxPnAP4J-LE7hSCwxbX6l3n4Dq7lb36L2c1pJ3tDOeDip4xyfDy0XgSoPbx_64fD_ZD8-BV3Y/s320/20191021_120836.jpg" width="248" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I ran around the edge of the circle with a black pen to add a faux layer and make it pop off the card more.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdqrpkZSh1SO_QilppGc5_9OjbIVISqY2RZVG7No9LkYkFhVW4FQkOwlWbloMVNwvguNADX60HLSUOioXrdHO2M9BID0k_QzQ6C8In-jozYfgqRbfqsnMe6jcFJQ-q1BGGY3SFT31Otts/s1600/20191021_120909.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdqrpkZSh1SO_QilppGc5_9OjbIVISqY2RZVG7No9LkYkFhVW4FQkOwlWbloMVNwvguNADX60HLSUOioXrdHO2M9BID0k_QzQ6C8In-jozYfgqRbfqsnMe6jcFJQ-q1BGGY3SFT31Otts/s320/20191021_120909.jpg" width="319" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the background I stamped one of the stamps from the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/textures-galore-stamp-set-11-clear-polymer-stamps/" target="_blank">Textures Galore stamp set</a> in a coordinating ink to add more detail. I then added some rough lines around the edges using a fine liner pen, mounted everything onto 3D foam and mounted onto a 15cm square card blank.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiY4mXAhS-RhVVtK5-uKxrtrMLRm6a6xBwcnrrxlri_QMKwty_TKOikqoxF43h_NhWPr2n4GCsDZkhRtM5kR_I0zco6Ik_Hn2VvKJ4EQI1mWwJjRPnIeVWb7gxlkoOzxmrsf2vT9pXRbjE/s1600/20191021_120928.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1206" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiY4mXAhS-RhVVtK5-uKxrtrMLRm6a6xBwcnrrxlri_QMKwty_TKOikqoxF43h_NhWPr2n4GCsDZkhRtM5kR_I0zco6Ik_Hn2VvKJ4EQI1mWwJjRPnIeVWb7gxlkoOzxmrsf2vT9pXRbjE/s320/20191021_120928.jpg" width="241" /></a></div>

Good morning my dear follower, I've got a tutorial to share with you today using some amazing <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles</a> products. It is quite photo heavy so you might want to get a cuppa and a cake to get you through it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To start with I used the two largest dies from the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/posydoodles-basics-circles-dies/" target="_blank">Posydoodles basics circle dies</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I then used a distress ink and dusting brush to add some colour around the edge of the largest circle.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I then used the same ink and a black one mixed with some water and created some splashes onto the second circle die cut.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVfh0-4Q3paF8zzwSO5ZCHmLOaWIN2k-CwFwytZDGNVS5JnP8iv3u8xx-NQtSH7rLGQ6Bf6liOSUU-4x1Dubv8AT549SxOIAMQSJhZG_IZZZN4A6cdUC29PCu3RG8E03IPCAO4edZRLdI/s1600/20191021_112948.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1103" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVfh0-4Q3paF8zzwSO5ZCHmLOaWIN2k-CwFwytZDGNVS5JnP8iv3u8xx-NQtSH7rLGQ6Bf6liOSUU-4x1Dubv8AT549SxOIAMQSJhZG_IZZZN4A6cdUC29PCu3RG8E03IPCAO4edZRLdI/s320/20191021_112948.jpg" width="220" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then did the same onto a 14.5cm square piece of card. And used a grey fine liner pen to create a border with by drawing some squiggly lines.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWO3D7r2zDkcLBcwu0UgSXA7arFnmpQP3O21y5dErKlXFdgQ34zgRSrI6Qr3qhixh_ET9Kx-qtiTwB-Phr9-3z38yqciA5Pi7r46wuv-tetc8k2UuK0njEQdZiuiu1LUnLSB27fSlK-0M/s1600/20191021_113009.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1060" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWO3D7r2zDkcLBcwu0UgSXA7arFnmpQP3O21y5dErKlXFdgQ34zgRSrI6Qr3qhixh_ET9Kx-qtiTwB-Phr9-3z38yqciA5Pi7r46wuv-tetc8k2UuK0njEQdZiuiu1LUnLSB27fSlK-0M/s320/20191021_113009.jpg" width="211" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I mounted everything onto 3D foam and put onto a 15cm square card blank.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I fussy cut the fabulous Flamingo image from one of my favourite Polkadoodles collections, the amazing <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/winnie-in-wonderland-big-kahuna-download-printable-digital-card-scrap-collection/" target="_blank">Winnie In Wonderland</a>, and mounted onto 3D foam and placed in the centre of the card. I then added a bow, some stamens and some die cut flowers to finish the card off. The flowers are cut using the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/bubbleicious-frames-craft-cutting-die/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles Bubbleicious Frames die set</a>.</div>

Good afternoon blogland.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's been a while since I blogged, for various reasons, the main one being me not being away from home, or not in the country. Since I last posted in August I have been to Skiathos to help out with the <a href="https://www.skiathos-cats.org/" target="_blank">Skiathos Cat Welfare Association</a> twice, I have driven to the Netherlands to collect cats from the SCWA for other people who have adopted from there, I have been to a few crafting events away from home, and I have been to Portugal for my sisters wedding. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I have been very, very busy. And sadly I lost one of my fur babies, which led to me struggling with my mental health. I have loved little Filo since I first met him in Skiathos 2 years ago as a baby, but we couldn't afford to bring him home as well as Amelia Pond. Well until this year. We finally got to bring him home in May this year and our family was complete. Then on the 15th September he hadn't been home for a few days and he was being frantically looked for. It took us a few days to be able to speak to all our neighbours and we found out that he had been run over and killed. Thankfully our neighbour picked him up and saved him in case anyone came looking for him, she didn't know he was ours. It hit me really hard as it does whenever I lose one of my babies, but this was worse. I promised him a better life here in the UK than he had at the SCWA, and I feel I let him down. He was only with us 4 months, and I couldn't keep him safe, I didn't give him that better life I promised him. A month has passed by and I am still struggling with his loss, I'm crying whilst writing this, I'm not sure I'll ever forgive myself for not being with him when he passed, the thought of him dying alone on the road hurts my heart so much.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I'm quite thankful that I have been really busy this past 4 weeks to help get me through it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So today is the first day I have been in my craft room since mid August, and boy have I missed it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have made quite a few things today, and it's only 15:00. You will see them all over the coming weeks, but today I will share a few of my makes with you.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I have used the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/flower-collage-stamp-set-clear-stamp-set-dl-size/" target="_blank">Flower Collage stamp set</a>, the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/queen-of-hearts-collage-clear-stamp-set-dl-size/" target="_blank">Queen of Hearts stamp set</a> and the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/wings-things-collage-clear-stamp-set-dl-size/" target="_blank">Wings and Things stamp set</a>. I have stamped them all in black ink onto water colour card and I have used my Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolour paints to colour them in. I had added some black lines around the edges and matted them all onto black card before mounting onto a white card blank. All very easy to make, but because they are Polkadoodles stamps, they are very striking.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will be back soon with some tutorials for you using some more of my Polkadoodles products.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But until then, take care and kiss you fur babies for me.</div>

I went around the edge with a black marker pen to add a faux layer, and then added more interest with a double squiggly line with a fine liner pen, and glued it to a square card blank. I then used the largest die from the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/butterfly-trio-3-craft-cutting-dies/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles Butterfly Trio die set</a>. Firstly I cut it from a piece of card that I had left over from a distress ink background I made. I then cut it our from black card keeping the waste in and securing with tape. I glued the centre of the white die cut over the black one and glued onto the card. Finally I cut out the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/celebrate-sentiment-craft-cutting-die/" target="_blank">Celebrate sentiment die</a> twice, once from an inked piece of card and one from black card.

Good morning everyone. I'm back with another make for the <a href="https://polkadoodlescraft.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles craft blog team</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And here it is.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxLGoAraDQWZu5cif-Q1EgR_WNTS9gEWuk-nBosE0qeEOxL91YHuiLOU_XNFVWht5eiZ7Tq3ZHNe5S21O6gY2pCgygY4nOmXdwjc_iyxymo3mVE7qvbdz4SBHuZe4hJ_Vaa3SnmyCxmfs/s1600/20190624_225107.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxLGoAraDQWZu5cif-Q1EgR_WNTS9gEWuk-nBosE0qeEOxL91YHuiLOU_XNFVWht5eiZ7Tq3ZHNe5S21O6gY2pCgygY4nOmXdwjc_iyxymo3mVE7qvbdz4SBHuZe4hJ_Vaa3SnmyCxmfs/s320/20190624_225107.jpg" width="319" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've created a background using distress inks and the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/flower-doodles-6x6-creative-craft-stencil/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles Flower Doodles 6x6 stencil</a>. I then used a black marker and went around the edges of the background to add a faux layer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I used the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/flower-doodles-6x6-creative-craft-stencil/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles Delicate Daisy corner die</a>, and cut it out of black card, and then again from the corner of the background. I put the die cut from the background, back into the space it was cut from. I then used the waste pieces from that die cut, to place into the waste areas I removed from the black die cut. I taped them in place to secure then and mounted onto 3D foam and placed it in the top left corner. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then used the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/celebrate-sentiment-craft-cutting-die/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles Celebrate sentiment die</a>, and cut one from white card, and one from black card. I offset the white die cut over the top of the black die cut and glued in place. Then added the sentiment across the centre of the card to finish it off.</div>

Good morning everyone.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm back in the land of blogging with another make for the <a href="https://polkadoodlescraft.blogspot.com/?view=classic" target="_blank">Polkadoodles blog</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There's lots of photos in this post so you may want to get comfy with a coffee.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've made a card with a hidden message using the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/funky-fantasy-6-x-6-backing-paper-pack/" target="_blank">Funky Fantasy paper pad</a> and the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/happy-birthday-2-craft-cutting-dies/" target="_blank">Happy Birthday die.</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The first step is to choose a sheet of paper you like, I chose the blue one and wanted to darken the edges so cut the paper to size and used a distress ink to darken the edges.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9UvBbPbewPxrlq-RT5UWV5ueqfU1qn89NPoXRc2XIkWHu7lSQRwLdDXWHFglZXvVyGg49ne3ACQdp1Dh9cvvq2NgEhwNmUXXCqFpHkRPpORBKRK-TGgAUjQ9eqY-m_5mfpqj-haHyuZQ/s1600/20190609_191905.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1243" data-original-width="1600" height="248" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9UvBbPbewPxrlq-RT5UWV5ueqfU1qn89NPoXRc2XIkWHu7lSQRwLdDXWHFglZXvVyGg49ne3ACQdp1Dh9cvvq2NgEhwNmUXXCqFpHkRPpORBKRK-TGgAUjQ9eqY-m_5mfpqj-haHyuZQ/s320/20190609_191905.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Next I chose the sentiment die I wanted to use and cut it out of the paper.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe9hMLHXeoa-PBQCHI48NlR8HMz1ne0YcKjIlVxs76pZ5ps_4SCW8z_l4aqBoEAbWsU8Fq1MdnI_PTf20RL2FBpqfWevK0d7Tkwlo_VxGeMovigCccZ2LfnBAO0PwOHzlSmZ9gFxo1qjw/s1600/20190609_192631.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1513" data-original-width="1600" height="302" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe9hMLHXeoa-PBQCHI48NlR8HMz1ne0YcKjIlVxs76pZ5ps_4SCW8z_l4aqBoEAbWsU8Fq1MdnI_PTf20RL2FBpqfWevK0d7Tkwlo_VxGeMovigCccZ2LfnBAO0PwOHzlSmZ9gFxo1qjw/s320/20190609_192631.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Make sure you keep all the pieces you cut out, including the bits you would normally throw away.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then glue the paper to the card taking care to stick down around the sentiment.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpCvqG3BRgUxAcSJNcddonwM7Wq6HHi9xexT6eLYfXXj921AnIOgpzbbCSKek3BxdRf2aklfiLBdl64JLHhQuh7gyKTejDw2uxZFy261Zuk24EYqbRoRfhCW0A-mMBZOAeYziNOQnr3EY/s1600/20190609_192737.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpCvqG3BRgUxAcSJNcddonwM7Wq6HHi9xexT6eLYfXXj921AnIOgpzbbCSKek3BxdRf2aklfiLBdl64JLHhQuh7gyKTejDw2uxZFy261Zuk24EYqbRoRfhCW0A-mMBZOAeYziNOQnr3EY/s320/20190609_192737.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Place the sentiment, without glueing, back onto the paper and then glue in all the extra pieces from the centres of the letters.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-WBozLfnGF2yhFDp2tQQbf2_rJQpRSsvA88YpKHToi9Jv9NWE0clN78mldi_6gc5YKGBd74BTuvmmwVzcK6CypEIxDXw4Yho9L63MvLHnhH25LVX04bUMaMPAHS7QeXoa9oghc8dRTqE/s1600/20190609_192840.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1537" data-original-width="1600" height="307" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-WBozLfnGF2yhFDp2tQQbf2_rJQpRSsvA88YpKHToi9Jv9NWE0clN78mldi_6gc5YKGBd74BTuvmmwVzcK6CypEIxDXw4Yho9L63MvLHnhH25LVX04bUMaMPAHS7QeXoa9oghc8dRTqE/s320/20190609_192840.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY9H3xsn0GN8YqL2rEi8cWqmc8peqYqxiGEWPD04m-J2sje7-l7No6iC7rXalz-T9BvkkP1lEy_pZyur4n_Qw4LQE3alWMJuBzwr_ROnqAeRuqNHWJEbPCvQEB-NqTpU10a-RZhSoSnAA/s1600/20190609_193220.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1493" data-original-width="1600" height="298" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY9H3xsn0GN8YqL2rEi8cWqmc8peqYqxiGEWPD04m-J2sje7-l7No6iC7rXalz-T9BvkkP1lEy_pZyur4n_Qw4LQE3alWMJuBzwr_ROnqAeRuqNHWJEbPCvQEB-NqTpU10a-RZhSoSnAA/s320/20190609_193220.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then cut the sentiment out from card stock several times and glue them all together on top of each other. You will end up with a sentiment that looks a but like a chipboard sentiment.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHnfRIJV-mb8tXk3l9KZnsB7oHCKhkYq67vZsDXNRbAxdX8rI0WV5fF4sPQ2vD1YDbPBGPq83xn1OTdPaRbuM4UXXBBjkTn0mrALq9gXuWDH6zQN_wNqT0NAhgLaEa5nPpQ-X7uIj-N0I/s1600/20190609_200157.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="155" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHnfRIJV-mb8tXk3l9KZnsB7oHCKhkYq67vZsDXNRbAxdX8rI0WV5fF4sPQ2vD1YDbPBGPq83xn1OTdPaRbuM4UXXBBjkTn0mrALq9gXuWDH6zQN_wNqT0NAhgLaEa5nPpQ-X7uIj-N0I/s320/20190609_200157.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally glue the sentiment onto the card. If you look at the card front on the sentiment isn't that easy to see, it's only when you tilt the card you get the full effect.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hello I'm back again with another make for <a href="https://polkadoodlescraft.blogspot.com/?view=classic" target="_blank">Polkadoodles</a> using the fabulous <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/hello-friend-a5-clear-stamp-set/" target="_blank">Hello Friend stamp set</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I adore this set and can see me using it a lot!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is a really quick and simple card, but very effective because of the size of the sentiment.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
To make this I stamped the larger butterfly randomly on a piece of water colour card. I did a loose watercolour of them using my Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolour paints. I then grabbed an off cut of watercolour card and did a wash with the paints in the same colours I used the paint the butterflies. I then stampes the bubbles to create a border around the edge, and that impressive sentiment in the middle. I used a stamping tool and stamped 3 times to make the word very dark. I then did some basic matting and layering and a card is made.</div>

Helloooo bloggers, it is I again with another make for the <a href="https://polkadoodlescraft.blogspot.com/?view=classic" target="_blank">Polkadoodles</a> blog team.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This time I've used the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/heart-sing-a5-clear-stamp-set/" target="_blank">Heart Sing stamp set</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To make this card I stamped the beautiful flower image randomly over a 14cm square piece of card, leaving a space in the centre for the sentiment. I then coloured the flowers with Copic Markers. I wanted the flowers to pop more from the page so I outline them with a blue marker to add a bit of shadow. Well as you can see I dropped a pen and ruined the card front. Or did I?</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJDtO-6hbtGzYkBHb6c56bGlh99kzNwgRG1GvynaaI1lSBq58R9thMG5QJUXblGKHUcg2UDBycigUy0ER1nv0e8tBoODCoD3sUdOgNzKFn_31YOoSuX1BqtYkKej0_7BepebnR6B_Rncs/s1600/20190419_153306b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1151" data-original-width="1600" height="230" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJDtO-6hbtGzYkBHb6c56bGlh99kzNwgRG1GvynaaI1lSBq58R9thMG5QJUXblGKHUcg2UDBycigUy0ER1nv0e8tBoODCoD3sUdOgNzKFn_31YOoSuX1BqtYkKej0_7BepebnR6B_Rncs/s320/20190419_153306b.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was quite pleased with the colouring on the flowers and really didn't want to bin it so I stamped a couple more flowers onto some more card and coloured them in. I then fussy cut one out and placed it over where I had made a blob. I turned the card base over and marked on the back on the flower where to trim to match the card.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then put the extra flower on 3D foam to add further interest.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And then so it looked like I had meant to do that all along I coloured and fussy cut another flower and mounted onto 3D foam and place over the flower at the top left, offsetting the bottom one.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Well I'm back again, who knew lol</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So after helping out to do some TV samples for Nikky and Lou Sims, I found myself back on one of the Polkadoodles teams. I am so happy to be back as you all know I have always loved everything Polkadoodles, and it seems Nikky still loves me makes, so here I am. I am part of the new blogging team with some very, very talented crafters. You can find us all <a href="https://polkadoodlescraft.blogspot.com/?view=classic" target="_blank">HERE</a> on the new blog.<br />
<br />
So here is my first make.<br />
I've used the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/hello-friend-a5-clear-stamp-set/" target="_blank">Hello Friend stamp set</a>.<br />
<br />
I've started off by stamping onto watercolour card with a sticky ink and then heat embossing with a clear embossing powder.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQuv-Xg9QVem3gUtNkHLU8ALvrXptUHKMBKRR4Jd7616KJgygMS-AzxnUDmYB9XHoe90U-LX17FItssdEQCp4HtC1vpftwucwDE-4JgKZuMKRg9ncNYJMKg-obph3W2-Nzx5DL6Mg3jW0/s1600/20190418_182324b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="155" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQuv-Xg9QVem3gUtNkHLU8ALvrXptUHKMBKRR4Jd7616KJgygMS-AzxnUDmYB9XHoe90U-LX17FItssdEQCp4HtC1vpftwucwDE-4JgKZuMKRg9ncNYJMKg-obph3W2-Nzx5DL6Mg3jW0/s320/20190418_182324b.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
Then I sprayed a little bit of water into the flower head stamped areas and sprinkling on some Brusho Powder.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEig4UFdy8avvOnIZQEUCuyDEDcE1L5MeHpJljV9C62lSFe5A4OXCe7pcW6SafTIe8FNtltuvFMbuGyktFaLhJAgJ2FsQ9sg80Ku7LmDnpUKZr47XXeLm53DFkv5ZzsrIap2UWuMknFMr94/s1600/20190418_182639b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="155" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEig4UFdy8avvOnIZQEUCuyDEDcE1L5MeHpJljV9C62lSFe5A4OXCe7pcW6SafTIe8FNtltuvFMbuGyktFaLhJAgJ2FsQ9sg80Ku7LmDnpUKZr47XXeLm53DFkv5ZzsrIap2UWuMknFMr94/s320/20190418_182639b.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
I then used a different colour Brusho for the butterflies.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSuTKm1ujAJ2cbD2LMGjXtZF1mkhYnrluKNRHZV2t4T7otha3C3f_ac7LsybKHMI0M5kvEBWPPP4ORT0EzfnQiSjyKeyXhXNXFlkhZer8xGULxf4hL_qNI3kqJTdwg-R2VxKDotOEKjCA/s1600/20190418_182745b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="155" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSuTKm1ujAJ2cbD2LMGjXtZF1mkhYnrluKNRHZV2t4T7otha3C3f_ac7LsybKHMI0M5kvEBWPPP4ORT0EzfnQiSjyKeyXhXNXFlkhZer8xGULxf4hL_qNI3kqJTdwg-R2VxKDotOEKjCA/s320/20190418_182745b.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
Allow your card to fully dry before the next step.<br />
I used a stamping tool to keep my background in place and placed the hello sentiment from the <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/hello-friend-a5-clear-stamp-set/" target="_blank">stamp set</a> where I wanted it. I then stamped the sentiment in black ink. I stamped it again twice more in the same place to ensure nice strong coverage so it stands out.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWLmwd_BOrxQM2YPQb1-ggsVLSYQ74PDwwUvkjcQvaD6_6mO4Ub203nYtAQYMuyUw9J2ERreR1iiAwLOzwtGGHokIcadXzdhhsueOIY-AkefyWsMZGPHX5iS21V3jhsnbgqSNecTDgi9k/s1600/20190418_183236b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="947" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWLmwd_BOrxQM2YPQb1-ggsVLSYQ74PDwwUvkjcQvaD6_6mO4Ub203nYtAQYMuyUw9J2ERreR1iiAwLOzwtGGHokIcadXzdhhsueOIY-AkefyWsMZGPHX5iS21V3jhsnbgqSNecTDgi9k/s320/20190418_183236b.jpg" width="189" /></a></div>
I then loosely coloured around the flowers and butterflies with some Brushos. And stamped and coloured the flower in the Mason jar onto a separate piece of watercolour card. I then fussy cut that out and glued flat onto the card background. I then drew around it with a black paint pen to make it pop more. Finally I added my usual squiggle around the edges, mounted onto a black mat and then onto an A5 card base. <br />

Oh my goodness, where does time go, this past 14 months have just flown by, and so very much has happened in that time. I won't however bore you with it. I kept thinking to myself, I will blog next week, I will blog next week.... yeah right!</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyhoo today is the day I do blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So the reason I here you ask?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well I got to play with some fab new goodies from <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles</a> for their shows on Hochanda today. The very talented Louise Sims is on air with them at 12pm and 5pm. I hope you catch the shows.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All my makes are using these products <a href="https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/creative-doodles-complete-stamp-stencil-card-collection/" target="_blank">here</a>. I had such fun playing with PD goodies again. I have been buying them during the year I had a break from the team, I think you all know I was a customer before I was on the team, so why should that change while I was having a break, I genuinely do love Polkadoodles products.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It may take me a while in getting used to blogging again, but I will try!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So stop blabbing I hear you say, where are your makes you shout. So here they are.</div>

Good afternoon everyone, I know it's been a while since I blogged, my last post was in March but I actually wrote it before I went to Greece in February. For those that don't know, I went volunteering at a cat rescue for 2 weeks, I loved every single minute of it and will be doing it again later in the year. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
So lots and lots has happened since then, it's been a very, very busy time for me with one thing and another, but I'll fill you in with that later, I promise I will be back blogging real soon.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

This week as we are close to St Patricks day the <a href="https://digichoosday.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">team</a> were challenged to make something Green, and here is my make.</div>

I used one of the pre-coloured monsters from the <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/little-monsters-digi-kit-download-top-banana-deal/" target="_blank">Little Monsters download kit</a>, and one of the messages from the bigger kit. I created a background using Brushos, amd added some squiggly lines around the edges and inked the edge of the card. I then printed out the monster and message and fussy cut them. I inked the edges of the monster black so no white showed, and then inked the edges of the speech bubble green. I mounted everything onto 3D foam and stuck in place.</div>

Good morning everyone. It's time for another new challenge from the Polkadoodles blog. With it being close to St Patricks day, the team were challenged to make something with lots of green in it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And here is my make.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ6kcTPUfxUFmfsedtwNcgyRomri6DUfYX1jiy3akwihwgvqShzEBYznqC4w2KSjHX81lo_qngyTb3tJ2nQZ6CzDX2PwIo0BtW7uFoxdhyJFs9nwG5S9HUXCbsuk_m6IKhKmgCR2qbYfA/s1600/IMG_7621.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1582" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ6kcTPUfxUFmfsedtwNcgyRomri6DUfYX1jiy3akwihwgvqShzEBYznqC4w2KSjHX81lo_qngyTb3tJ2nQZ6CzDX2PwIo0BtW7uFoxdhyJFs9nwG5S9HUXCbsuk_m6IKhKmgCR2qbYfA/s320/IMG_7621.jpg" width="316" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've used one of the monsters from the <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/little-monsters-stamp-set-funky/" target="_blank">Little Monsters Funky Stamp set</a>, and a sentiment from the <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/little-monsters-stamp-set-monster-messages/" target="_blank">Monster Messages stamp set</a>. You could do what I did and buy the <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/monster-deal-little-monsters-stamps-papers-bundle/" target="_blank">whole collection</a> to save a few pennies. And I'm sure it's cheaper now than when I bought it so it is a monster bargain!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I took a few photos while making this to show you how I did it, so here you are.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuE7hg3wcrDQx1EYJgPglkShbNmyi4g_PWMQ2BU0k_Wfc2PuS2TGT_C5MeoGlr8jcohfm0_XHHV8WXZY9YHKxDGVBhhVT1CJu_VMxPYT487lz0_5_p0gkiKFWTILZyV8pEt0GiLgFhJec/s1600/IMG_7617.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1502" data-original-width="1600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuE7hg3wcrDQx1EYJgPglkShbNmyi4g_PWMQ2BU0k_Wfc2PuS2TGT_C5MeoGlr8jcohfm0_XHHV8WXZY9YHKxDGVBhhVT1CJu_VMxPYT487lz0_5_p0gkiKFWTILZyV8pEt0GiLgFhJec/s320/IMG_7617.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I stamped the Monster and message in black onto watercolour card and used a water pen just inside the monster. I then added some Brushos and allowed it to dry. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWvTm68IUdKX9_JjLgC5yr7ZZqGnAM_S3x0v9AZhEyeCiS9CSykMLFib0Pxse4voGrksjptev1JrxguB0hA-xkwPw-Y4mmaF2YtPFw1oUAk52Z2gDb3q28Eg-KwTGlooQTg2aLsJ7jJqw/s1600/IMG_7618.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1547" data-original-width="1600" height="309" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWvTm68IUdKX9_JjLgC5yr7ZZqGnAM_S3x0v9AZhEyeCiS9CSykMLFib0Pxse4voGrksjptev1JrxguB0hA-xkwPw-Y4mmaF2YtPFw1oUAk52Z2gDb3q28Eg-KwTGlooQTg2aLsJ7jJqw/s320/IMG_7618.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then stamped the monster on a post it note to use as as mask. I then sprayed the card with water and added more brushes in a different green.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoJ2IuT5U5DQoLbTciuE7tosC1bcJY-7Wb4SI2osLhYMHGLPrePcvrDrtR-VQ5ZY_aRotbRlCNpebM22F0NQYkssR_y-mCwCrtB7rBiim7ZelxIMnC4j4PDN8kknryPpAsjcFUf-TUeRs/s1600/IMG_7619.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1105" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoJ2IuT5U5DQoLbTciuE7tosC1bcJY-7Wb4SI2osLhYMHGLPrePcvrDrtR-VQ5ZY_aRotbRlCNpebM22F0NQYkssR_y-mCwCrtB7rBiim7ZelxIMnC4j4PDN8kknryPpAsjcFUf-TUeRs/s320/IMG_7619.jpg" width="221" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then sprayed a bit more water to mix the colours more. I then used a heat gun to dry it off and added some lines around the edges, and also inked the edge of the card to make it stand out more. Finally I added 3D foam to the back and stuck it to the card blank.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I know, these weeks are flying by aren't they!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This week the team at the <a href="https://digichoosday.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Digi Choosday blog</a> were challenged to make something for a lady, and here is my make.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/winnie-celebrations-2-top-banana-printable-download-kit/" target="_blank">Winnie Celebrations 2 collection</a> to make this. I used a pre-coloured image, 2 papers and a sentiment. I matted the papers and image onto coordinating card and mounted onto 3D foam to give it dimension. I added some pearls around the sentiment and at the bottom of the card, and finally added a bow. This image could be used for lots of occasions, not just birthdays.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And as always we have a massive discount code for you so don't forget to grab it from <a href="https://digichoosday.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">our blog</a>.<br />

Good morning everyone, it's time for a new challenge over at the <a href="https://polkadoodle.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles blog</a>. This week the team were challenged to make something with Spring Colours and here is my make for this week.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXZP5n5YtkJwmOC06iLKiJlyLECMKHeMR_E728QxapB3yRI0JLZJchbkEl94x02dT0gOlEZb4mPUW4kodQB46__qKBbUkD3_OFU2piROHMVJOceIMik2K6-XLAdgjO3jv7TmwhbSBH2ik/s1600/IMG_7616.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1572" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXZP5n5YtkJwmOC06iLKiJlyLECMKHeMR_E728QxapB3yRI0JLZJchbkEl94x02dT0gOlEZb4mPUW4kodQB46__qKBbUkD3_OFU2piROHMVJOceIMik2K6-XLAdgjO3jv7TmwhbSBH2ik/s320/IMG_7616.jpg" width="314" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have used the <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/winnie-fruit-punch-download-bundle" target="_blank">Winnie Fruit Punch collection</a>. When I use this collection I usually go for the ever so cute fat Bee so thought I'd do something different instead. So I used one of the design sheets which you can buy on it's own <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/cheers-winnie-fruit-punch-printable-digital-craft-stamp-download-digiscrap/" target="_blank">HERE</a>. There is loads left over for another make too.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I fussy cut everything out by hand and added some sparkle to the butterflies and bird using a Wink of Stella pen. I edged the papers with black ink for some faux matting and layering. I then mounted to topper, the embellies and the sentiments onto 3D foam to give some dimension to the card. Lovely spring colours I think, and makes me feel like summer is finally on the way.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why not come and join our challenge for the chance to win some fab goodies! And of course check out what the rest of the team have made over at the <a href="https://polkadoodle.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">blog</a>.</div>

Today at the <a href="https://digichoosday.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Digi Choosday blog</a> the team were challenged to make something with lots of love. The challenge for you as always is anything goes. I chose to use the new <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/winnie-celebrations-2-top-banana-printable-download-kit/" target="_blank">Winnie Celebrations 2 collection</a>. I used a pre-coloured image as I'm still struggling with nerve issues. I then used one of the banners and added my own sentiment to it. I did this in My Craft Studio but you can do it in Word if you don't have a graphics program. I also used one of the papers, with love hearts, from the collection and matted it onto coordinating card stock and layered up with 3D foam pads. Finally I stamped to heart from the <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/stamp-soup-regal-peacock-large-a5-stamp-set/" target="_blank">Regal Peacock stamp</a> set 5 times, coloured it red with inks and made it into a flower and added stamens.</div>

Good morning everyone, I'm here today with a new challenge from the <a href="https://polkadoodle.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles blog</a>. This week the team were challenged to make something with spring flowers on, the challenge for you as always is anything goes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I knew straight away I wanted to use some of the fabulous Polkadoodles flower dies, so I chose to use the<a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/flowers-2-craft-cutting-die/" target="_blank"> flowers 2 dies set</a>, and here is my make.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-npn60FMsyQyUlI_b82_RptqaejQcKJSv2cFedG0nVBdeQQUOznCIv1Sw_QSCRHGo2hGhWCqELB1TSx3P15D25JYTC1VoA3hyyl6hQ_2a8m6nJ0BBlKJl-zvY2L5Y1MdEJV-Y-cgJIyU/s1600/IMG_7541.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1598" data-original-width="1600" height="319" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-npn60FMsyQyUlI_b82_RptqaejQcKJSv2cFedG0nVBdeQQUOznCIv1Sw_QSCRHGo2hGhWCqELB1TSx3P15D25JYTC1VoA3hyyl6hQ_2a8m6nJ0BBlKJl-zvY2L5Y1MdEJV-Y-cgJIyU/s320/IMG_7541.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also used the small frame from the <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/bubbleicious-frames-craft-cutting-die/" target="_blank">Bubbleicious Frames die set</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So actually this isn't what I started out making, I started by cutting some of the flowers and usimg my pink and purple inks on them, but I wasn't happy with the results as I didn't think they were spring like so I started again.This time I decided to use my Brusho powders and was happy with the colours. So actually a quick card took me over an hour to make, but hey ho I love it, and I had great fun making it, and that is what crafting is all about isn't it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's a close up of the flowers for you.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Today over at the <a href="https://digichoosday.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Digi Choosday blog</a> the team were challenged to make a romantic themed make and here is what I made.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I have made quite a simple card although it took a while going through everything in the <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/octavia-moonfly-big-kahuna-digital-craft-download-bundle/" target="_blank">Octavia Moonfly collection</a> deciding what to use! Once I had decided what colour scheme and the items I wanted to use I took them into My Craft Studio and laid it out as I wanted it. I then changed the embellies colours to match the papers colours, added shadows and printed it all out in one go. I then cut around it leaving a small white border and matted it on black card and adhered to a white card blank and there you have it.</div>

I've used my favourite <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/winnie-in-wonderland-big-kahuna-download-printable-digital-card-scrap-collection/" target="_blank">Winnie In Wonderland collection</a> to make my hubby his birthday card, and as you can see I've made a circular card with circular mats and layers, and lots of circular embellies on it.</div>

I have used the Winne White Christmas collection to make this, actually the alphabet from the collection. I printed all the letters out onto glossy paper and fussy cut them all out. I used some simple matting and layering on this to keep it simple and be all about the thank you. I've also used the <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/flower-flourish-craft-cutting-die/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles Flower Flourish die</a>, and the <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/flowers-2-craft-cutting-die/" target="_blank">Polkadoodles Flower 2 die</a>. I've actually made two of these, one for my cuzzie for having us for Christmas, and one for our friends for having us over for New Year. Here is a close up for you.</div>
