Hello crafting friends, Rachael here with a scrummy summer card. Oh, how I wish I was Winnie floating in her ring sipping cocktails! The sweep of flowers is from the Blooming Lovely download all coloured with alcohol makers for a vibrant beach vibe!

KIM STEWART - Our challenge this week, THINGS. I created 3 A6 style cards using the Happy Cactus bundle. All 3 images were coloured and then fussy cut out. My paper selections come from Gnome Men Gardening as well as this Winnie bundle and the sentiments also come from the Happy Cactus download bundle. I added a few die cut flowers and some greenery to give a bit of interest to the cards.

SHRUTI - Hello Wonderful Crafters, this time I created 2 projects : A gift tag and True Love ❤️ home decor/Car/Garden/Wall hanging and also a beautiful gift to your loved ones 💖There are more instructions over on the blog.

Wendy - Hi everyone! I'm here with inspiration for the latest Polkadoodles challenge. I have been having SOOOO much fun creating summer and beach cards with the Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles bundle. In this image, Winnie is sitting on the dock, soaking in the sunshine. What a relaxing looking day! I colored this entire scene with Copic markers. Thank you for looking!

Irre - Hello, sharing here a new project for Polkadoodles. This time, I've created a tag with Rebel Cool girl. I colored the stamp with Copic alcohol markers. The tag, I created with distress inks, stamps, embossing powder, and microbeads. I added the title from Rebel with attitude easy snip message strips set. Finally, I added ribbon and twine to the tag. Have a crafty day! My social links: Instagram: @scrapbyirre Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_BjwL9Z8gt1i_E1WmKmrWg
