Polkadoodles Craft Blog –Madagascar!


Good morning everybody, hope everything is OK.

Well after my Digi Choosday post yesterday I am ‘bothering’ the Polkadoodles Blog today with a little tutorial.  I show how I created this wall hanger, featuring the characters, Melman, Gloria, Alex and Marty from the cartoon movie Madagascar…hence the post title. 


I do like to challenge myself and make something just to see if I can.  Saying that I have absolutely no idea why I created this or why the thought popped into my head.  In fact the movie was on TV the other week but I had made this way before then so I’m as baffled as you probably are.


So if you have a burning desire to put a motley crew of animals on your wall I show you how you can do it by using just 2 of the mega versatile Polkadoodles Die Sets (well 3 if you count the whiskers I cut from the cat set).


Pop over to the BLOG and take a look!


Ingredients:
Polkadoodles Goodies:
Dies: GEORGE THE GIRAFFE – ‘DORABLE DOG – KITTY WHISKERS (for the...um...whiskers)
Colouring Paper: ULTIMATE GRAPHIC
Stencils: TROPICAL FOLIAGE

Other Stuff:
Letter Colouring: Copics
The Rest: Box Card – Gesso – Acrylic Paint – Hessian Ribbon - Googly Eyes

Thanks so much for visiting and I appreciate you taking the time to comment! 
Enjoy your day!

See ya!

We Love 2 Create –Believe in Magic!


Hello! Happy Sunday!

Time for a new monthly challenge at WE LOVE 2 CREATE which is always ‘Anything Creative/Mixed Media Goes’ and we are sponsored by the awesome POLKADOODLES!! Our winner will receive a fabulous prize so check out the blog for details.

Now ever since I was little (yes, I can remember that far back; just) I have loved shadow puppets (!). My parents even bought me a shadow theatre complete with odd looking characters and I played with it constantly...well until it sort of disintegrated.  And I think that is where my love for silhouettes comes from.  So how could I possibly resist these GORGEOUS new Polkadoodles stamps that were premiered on Hochanda recently?

The beauty of a silhouette stamp is that it cries out for an interesting background.  So step up please all those mop-up, stencil cleaning & general experimenting bits of paper that have accumulated in my ‘oooh-must-do-something-with-that’ drawer.


I used quite a textured watercolour paper so stamping the silhouettes was never going to be easy.  Thank goodness for a stamping platform, how did I manage without one? 


Ingredients:
Polkadoodles Goodies:

Other Stuff:
Background: Distress Oxide ‘mop-up’ on textured watercolour paper
Ink: Versafine – Candid Apple, Carved Pumpkin & Walnut Stain Distress Oxides
The Rest: Posca Pens – Chipboard Corners

Thanks so much for looking and taking the time to comment; I really do appreciate it! Enjoy what’s left of the weekend!

See ya!
