THE CHALLENGE IS: ANYTHING GOES

So let's get to the inspiration for today's new Card Making & Paper Craft Scrapbook challenge...


CHRISTIN B - I am a great fan of the Spellbinding Witches of the Polkadoodles Craftshop. So I love to make halloween cards with them. On my card today you can see the Pandora Witch which I colored with my alcohol markers. For the background I used a stencil and Distress Oxides and stamped the sentiment several times.



Kim Stewart - Fall colours are slowly starting to appear here in Eastern Canada. Soon the air will be filled with the scents of pumpkin cheesecake and apple crumble. I'm loving this week's Design Team Challenge of my 'favourite thing about September'. Which for me is the wonderful splashes of colour we get here starting in late September. I couldn't resist Marigold from the Darling Buds collection-a perfect match for this vibrant season. Plus creating with the orange and pink was fun. I chose a wonderful quote i found on the internet which i mounted to the front of my card and then fussy cut around Marigold which i popped up with a bit of foam tape. Lastly a few mulberry flowers to finish my card design off as well as glitter glue in gold to the marigolds for added depth and sparkle. My paper choices come from Spring Into Easter paper pack 1 and Gnome Halloween Set 2


Wendy - Hello everyone I hope you are enjoying your week! Today I'm here to share a cute little Halloween card that I've made using the Ghastly Ghosts collection - these little ghosts are definitely more cute than ghastly and I don't think they'll be scaring anyone this Halloween. I have coloured 3 of the little ghosts with coloured pencils and then made them a cute DL shaker card. I use the Funky Vortex stencil in the background of the apertures and hand drew little cobwebs on the acetate windows before adding my sequins. The stripey paper and sentiments are from the Trick or Treat Gnome collection.
Have a fabulous week - love and crafty hugs x



Megan Cooper - Today I am giving you a peek into things I love about Autumn. I used Out and About Honeypie to share my love of being cozy with sweaters, hats and mittens (as it gets closer to winter, mittens are a must)! I paired her with the Just Lovely digital papers, and the best part is I was able to go from a pink paper to an orange paper by adding a filter to the digital paper in Canva. So I used two different colors for my striped background. The hearts are fussy cut from another design in the paper bundle. The sentiment is from the Just Lovely 31 Sentiments/Greetings bundle. I colored the leaves from the Lil Bug Lady Bird digital stamp with a Zig Clean Color brush pen. I hope this card gets you excited for Autumn. Instagram: Megan Cooper (@lazydazestampin)

Candace - For today's challenge project, the theme is Fall/Autumn are coming and use the color palette of oranges and pinks. I used the digital images from Autumn/Fall Digi Stamps and the papers are from Noodle Panda and Zodiac co-ordinates pattern papers.



Jane – Autumn is not too far away, and it is most definitely my favourite time of year. This sweet little FREDDY FOX PUMPKIN is sitting amongst some of the wonderful Fall ephemera from the AUTUMN/FALL FREDDY FOX bundle welcoming in the season.

Julie Nagle - This week’s Design Team Challenge was to create a card using an object from PolkaDoodles digital images to create a September Birthday Card. So many options - whatever would I choose?! My Son’s birthday is in September so instantly I thought of him. Last year he spent his birthday in Nova Scotia, Canada which led to the creation of this card. The Lighthouse from Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles proved to be just perfect for the background technique I had planned to apply to this card. I blended using PolkaDoodles Blending Brushes with tones of blue/green distress inks onto the background using a random pebble stencil for the water, and a tea colored ink for sandy beach. A pallet knife and Grit paste allowed me to mimic the crashing waves at the shoreline of the lighthouse. I Sea it’s Your Birthday was the perfect sentiment for this charming coastal creation. Dive in and give this card a try! Further details can be found on my blog.

Wendy - For today's challenge, I tried something a little different. I used a pre-colored image. I absolutely adore the stunning colors on thIS Fantasy Moon image and wanted to use it on my card. I did pull some of the colors from the image to create a soft, simple background using my Copic markers. I also added Wink of Stella (on the moon) and some Unicorn Pearls. I love how it turned out! Thank you for looking!
