GDT – Girlz Creative Fun Art of Scrap Challenge – Polkadoodles Hello Autumn Collection!

 Good morning!  

Today I find myself in another a guest slot but this time it’s on the GIRLZ CREATIVE FUN ART OF SCRAP  blog and their theme is always 

‘Anything Goes with Designer Paper’

I used this sweet hedgehog from Polkadoodles called HEDGEHOG FALLING LEAVES and based my Copic colouring palette on the paper I chose to use.

 I love the blue in this paper although I'm not too sure I've ever seen any leaves that shade. 

Ingredients:

Digital Stamp: HEDGEHOG FALLING LEAVES

Colouring: Copics

Colouring/Printing Paper: POLKADOODLES PERFECT STAMPING

Backing Paper: POLKADOODLES ‘HELLO AUTUMN PRETTY PAPER SET 2’

Sentiment: POLKADOODLES ‘HELLO AUTUMN GREETINGS’

Dies: Chloe’s Creative Cards ‘8 x 8 Fancy Squares’

GDT - Girlz Creative Christmas Challenge - Di's Digi Winter Bear

 Good morning! Back again! 

Today I find myself as a guest on the GIRLZ CHRISTMAS CHALLENGE blog and their theme this time is ‘Fun Folds’

 

Well, my ‘fun fold’ is a centre stepper card featuring this fabulous cocoa-sipping polar bear from DIS DIGI STAMPS called MUGSY (love it).

I must admit it took me ages to make this card. Do you find that happens sometimes? I had chosen my paper, coloured my image then…nope I had nothing. I knew it would be a stepper but that was about it. Still a cup of tea and a walk with the dog later and I managed to finish it. Phew!

Ingredients:

Digital Stamp:  DIS DIGI STAMPS ‘MUGSY’

Dies: Tattered Lace Centre Stepper Set – Sue Wilson ‘Holly Sprays’, ‘Snow Fall Border’ and ‘Flying Santa’ - Catherine Pooler Winter Frame – Tonic ‘Merry Christmas’

Paper: LOTV ‘Frosty Christmas'

Colouring: Arrtx Pencils on Strathmore Grey Toned Paper

Others: Mini Gems

 

So, get out those Christmas supplies and folding boards and join in with this fab challenge.

GDT – The Dream Factory Challenge – Polkadoodles Gnome Stamps!

Good morning!

I am very honoured to be a guest designer on THE DREAM FACTORY challenge blog today. Their themes are always film related and today the film in question is

 so anything bee-related basically.

POLKADOODLES has a fabulous array of bee and gnome images in their collection called BUZZY BEE, and that is what I chose to use today. I printed the image directly onto the backing paper to make a single layer CAS card (so much easier for posting).

This little guy is taking his love of bees very seriously as he has even dyed his beard to be a bee-ard. 😊

Ingredients:

Digital Stamp: HEY GNOMIE

Honey Jar Paper: BUZZY BEE PRINTABLE EMBELLISHMENT BUNDLE

Colouring: Copics on PERFECT STAMPING & PRINTING CARD

Dies:  Presscut ‘Nesting Stich Dot Hexagons’
