Let's see the inspiration from the team - we've been creating lots of gorgeous projects for you... 


Leah - Hello friends! I am sharing a Valentine's Day card featuring the Bunny Rabbit with Bunch of Flowers digital stamp set from Polkadoodles. I have paired this with digital paper from Bella Bear Morning Coffee and a digital sentiment from the 3 Little Bunny Rabbits set.
Carrianne - Hi friends! Today, I'm sharing a super fun card for this week’s theme—Pancake Day! There are so many adorable images to choose from, but I couldn’t resist Flipping Pancakes Digital Image because she totally reminds me of myself when I try to flip them. I always end up making a mess! I colored the image with alcohol markers and used a stitched square die to cut it out. For the background, I chose the Paper Patterns 2 - Winnie Daisy Fairy for a fun and playful touch. The sentiment is from the Pancakes and Waffles Greetings Bundle, which was the perfect finishing touch for this card.
For more inspiration, be sure to follow me on Instagram @crafticarri. I’d love to connect and share more creative ideas with you!

Wendy - Today on the Polkadoodles challenge, we're celebrating one of the yummiest holidays - "Pancake Day". It's not an official holiday in the states, but it should be. For my card, I used the black and white digital stamps from Pancake Waffles Digital Stamps and colored them with my Copic markers to create a delicious breakfast fit for this holiday. I'm getting hungry! Have fun creating and good luck!

Kerri - Hi everyone! I'm Sharing this card I created using the Digital Stamp called TOGETHER ALWAYS. The pattern Paper you see is from the collection BAKED WITH LOVE PAPER HEAVEN. Image and paper was printed onto White card stock. Bunnies were colored with Prisma Pencils.

Jane – Not a digital project today but I hope that’s ok. This gorgeous HYDRANGEA STAMP and MATCHING DIE-SET make a great thank you card and is so easy to put together. I simply used white embossing powder and some loose watercolouring and added one of the pot shapes from the GARDEN DELIGHTS STENCIL. Ready in a flash…well almost. Have a wonderful Christmas everyone and a very happy 2025.

Nunzia: It'a a real good idea to have a pancake party, they are so delicious. And a themed greating card is perfect for any occasion. That's why I decided to choose this cute precoloured Pancake time image adding just some sparkle on the dress and flowers. Than, I prepared a background with a paper from Noodle Panda Set, cutting out some elements to create a flower in the corner. For the sentiment, which is part of Pancakes and waffles greetings bundle-1, I would to print it in a large size to give more interest to the tag.
Megan - I had some fun with the assignment of Pancake day, not a card. I did something I don't normally do and colored SVG Cut files. I made a fun spiral notebook with lined paper to feature the images. I used the pre-colored images from Baked with Love and Pancakes Lemon Food for the background images. I added shading with Copic markers to the stars, stack of pancakes and the word sweet, by doing this it cut my coloring time in half. The girl from Pancake and Waffle time is an SVG file I cut in white cardstock and colored with Copic markers. I added all the images on a base layer of papers from Paper Patterns-2 Winnie Daisy Fairy. The project turned out light and fun and I love it.

Let's see the inspiration from the team - we've been creating lots of gorgeous projects for you... 

Rachael - Hi everyone. Have you seen the latest stamp and die release? It’s so fun and funky and I think it’s perfect for men and boys cards. I made this using a distress ink blended back ground. I then stamped, coloured and die cut the new hip hip hooray die. Simple, quick and easy for the males in you life!

Christin - I love the Frosty Wintersmile Snowmen collection, one is sweeter than the other. For my card today I used the Hello Frosty Snowman and colored it with my alcohol markers. It was supposed to be a birthday card so I used the large text for the background which I also colored it with my alcohol markers.

Julie - This fun and festive New Year card features Winnie Celebrations- Anniversary Digital Image from Polkadoodles. The bubbly background was created using black cardstock, lunar paste, and a bubbly stencil, layered with some sparkling gold cardstock. Winnie is Copic Colored in her best black evening gown with gold glittery accents. Glossy dots allowed the champagne bottle and glasses to shine and shimmer because on this card front - It’s Time to Party! Winnie is attached to the card front with a spring wobbler allowing her to be a little tipsy! The inside sentiment reads “Save Water - Drink Champagne” from the Winnie Celebrations Sentiments 1. Full Details on my blog. Wishing you all a very Happy New Year! My Instagram, Facebook

Wendy - Hi everyone! Look at this adorable little Gingerbread Cookie girl showing off all of her candy!. I can picture her dancing with excitement as she decorates her yummy gingerbread house. She's just one of the many sweet images available in the Gingerbread Bundle. You can find her in the Santa Mug kit and the gingerbread house is in the Snow Day kit. I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
Megan Cooper - I used this Bella Bear Morning Coffee digi with the Winnie Daisy greetings quotes and papers from the Paper Patterns 2 - Winnie Daisy Fairy set then coloured her in, so cute!

This card features the Bella Bear Morning Coffee digital stamp. I coloured her using my Holbein coloured pencils and paired her with some digital papers from the Horace & Boo collection as well as a digital sentiment available on the Polkadoodles website.


Kerri - I am sharing a card I made using the digital stamp called NATURES BEAUTY GIRL WITH FLOWERS IN HER HAIR. I printed the image onto white card stock and colored her up with Kalour Pencils. I added a couple of snowflakes and a sentiment.
Jenny - I always have thank you cards available for my kids to write a message to the person who gave them a gift. For this card, I braided the side of the card base and then used the Snowflake Autumn Fall Fox coloured digi stamp from Polkadoodles along with some of the papers from the Polkadoodles Theo Penguin Paper Bundle 4 digi set.
