Hello!

Good morning and a very 

Today over at the Digi Choosday blog the team were challenged to make something that said Hello or Goodbye and I chose to make this.

I used the cute Lily Love Bug collection to make this. I fussy cut all the embellies and Lily herself and mounted everything on 3D foam to make it pop. Even the ribbon is paper, don't it look real! I added some faux stitching around the edges of everything to add more interest.

So why not come join our challenge? And don't forget to grab today's massive discount code as it only lasts 24 hours.

Hearts

Good morning everyone, hope you're all managing to keep warm while the weather in the UK is freezing cold and lots of snow everywhere. 

I'm here today to share my make for the Polkadoodles challenge blog. This week the team were challenged to make something with the theme of hearts. Well when I hear hearts I always think of our cute Lily Love Bug so here is my make.

I've kept this really simple as it is for my hubby.

Now of course if you want to join our challenge for you it is as always, Anything Goes. So come play and maybe you'll win some goodies.

Love and Romance

Good morning and a very happy, healthy and prosperous new year to you all.

I'm here with my first challenge of the year with the Polkadoodles challenge blog, and that challenge is Love and Romance and here is my make.

 I have used the beautiful Belle Papillon collection to make this card. I used a paper, a sentiment in a frame, a few butterflies, a frame and the flowers embellie. I fussy cut the embellies and sentiment out and mounted them on to 3D foam.I matted to paper onto black card and spit it into two to add a bit of extra interest and there you have it.

Romantic

Good morning and a very happy 

Today over at the Digi Choosday blog the team were challenged to make a romantic themed make and here is what I made.

 I have made quite a simple card although it took a while going through everything in the Octavia Moonfly collection 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.

Shaped card

Good morning and a very happy new year to you all. I wish each and everyone one of all six of you, and very happy, healthy and prosperous new year. I can't believe it is now 2018, how scarey is that!

Now I also want to wish you a very happy

Today over at the Digi Choosday blog the team were challenged to make a shaped card and here is my make.

 I've used my favourite Winnie In Wonderland collection 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.

As always pop over to our blog to see what everyone else has been up to and find out what this weeks discount code will get you.

Thank You

Good morning and a very happy 

 Today over at the Digi Choosday blog the team were challenged to make something that says Thank You. Well nothing says more that than a thank you card so here it is!

 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 Polkadoodles Flower Flourish die, and the Polkadoodles Flower 2 die. 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.

So pop over to the team blog to see what everyone else has made and of course grab today's massive discount code. And I'll see you soon.

Celebrate the New Year

Good morning everyone, I'm here with another make for the Polkadoodles blog, this time back with my own team, and we were challenged to make something to do with celebrations or New Year, so I went with both and here it is.

 I used the Frosted Winter collection to make this. I printed the papers onto card so I could distress the edges and mount them onto 3D foam. The purple card at the back is a shimmery purple which is perfect for this collection, although it doesn't show up in photos. I them fussy cut all the letters and numbers and mounted them on 3D foam as well. I then added a flower and some gems to finish it off.

New Year

Good morning and a very happy

Today over at the Digi Choosday blog the team were challenged to make something for New Year, or just something new. I opted to make a New Year card and here it is.

 Once again I used the Frosted Winter collection. I think the colours on this are just perfect for this time of year, and they are my fave colours too! I lined all the letters up using My Craft Studio so I could get them all the same size and on the same line so they were level. I then printed them out and cut using my scissors. I layered up a few flowers and added some stamens and some foliage to add some extra interest. I finished it off by adding some gems in the top corner and around the numbers.

Not a card

Good morning everyone. I'm here today with a make for the Polkadoodles challenge blog. I'm actually gate crashing the other team, I hope they don't mind!

The team were challenged to make something else other than a card. Now my regular followers will be expecting me to make a tag, one crafter calls me the queen of tags lol. Well sorry, but I haven't made a tag, I've made a box! It was to hold the card I made for last weeks Digi Choosday challenge and here it is.

 I used the Frosted Winter collection again to go with last weeks card of course. I printed two of the papers onto sheets of card, and printed them at A4 so I could make a larger box. I then fussy cut the embellies and letter out and glued on the lid.

And here it is with the card in it.

And for those of you who were expecting me to make a tag, how could I disappoint you!

I'll see you next week with a make for my Polkadoodles team.

Winter Birthday

Good morning and a very happy 

Over at the Digi Choosday blog today the team were challenged to make something for a winter birthday and here is what I made.

 I have used the stunning Frosted Winter collection to make this circular easel card. I printed everything on matt paper as it suits these images so well, and makes them more vibrant. I fussy cut them all out and mounted in place with 3D foam. I printed the image 3 times and decoupaged it up.

Here is a close up of the decoupage.

Don't forget to pop over to the blog to grab today's discount code and check out my teamies makes.

I'll see you soon with another make.
