LDRS Creative –Just Hanging Out!

Hello everyone! How are things?


I am posting on the LDRS CREATIVE INSPIRATION BLOG today, sharing a 6x6 card with the cutest Polkadoodles image.


This is HANGING OUT and I have watercoloured this sweet gang in ‘toy’ colours; so to speak.


I had a bit of a fight with my ribbon to get it to curl the way I wanted and I still don’t think I got it quite right.  However after some choice words and with glue all over my hands I left it as is.



Ingredients:

Ink: RAVEN HYBRID INK PAD

Digi Choosday Challenge – Recycle!

Good morning everybody!  Hope everything is good with you and yours!


It’s Choosday which means it’s time for a new ‘Anything Goes’ challenge over at POLKADOODLES DIGI CHOOSDAY and as always we have a wonderful prize on offer for our lucky winner so check out the BLOG for details.   

Don’t forget it is also DISCOUNT DAY so you need to grab the code on THE BLOG to get a MASSIVE reduction in the POLKADOODLES SHOP! It’s for a limited time only so be quick!

The team had to look to ‘recycle’ this week so I searched my desk and this is what I decided to use. 

As I no longer use baby wipes (the eco-warrior in me) I had dried out the couple I had left to use as duster cloths or some such thing.  But then I thought, “You know, I can make something ‘crafty’ with these”.  I also had a bright blue padded foil envelope (that came with packs of sequins) and thought I might be able to use that too.

So here we are, a stamped and inked baby wipe; bit rough but it’s not the easiest material to work with and I used the envelope to cut several of the flower die that comes with the FANCIFUL CIRCLES SET.

This beautiful image is OCTAVIA BIRD IN THE HAND and I used a sentiment from the FOREVER SPECIAL ANGEL set.


Ingredients:
Colouring: Copics
Colouring Paper: ULTIMATE GRAPHIC
Polkadoodles Dies: FANCIFUL CIRCLES
Polkadoodles Stamps: HEART SING FOREVER SPECIAL ANGEL
The Rest: Dry Baby Wipes – Foil Padded Envelope – Cardboard Packaging – Metallic Pearls – Distress Oxides – Posca Pens
