THE CHALLENGE IS: ANYTHING GOES

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

Julie Nagle - Today’s design team project is a festive holiday card featuring a coffee mug with a hidden pocket - perfect for tucking in a gift card. The card starts with a free Polkadoodles mug template. I added a beautiful pre colored image Winnie White Christmas - Shopping to the front of the coffee cup (which doubles as a gift card holder). A holiday sentiment adds Christmas cheer to the coffee cup. 2 printable holiday papers and a glimpse of a popular Christmas carol complete the background. Seasonal foliage was the perfect embellishment for this card front. All of the products used were included in the Winnie White Christmas Printable Collection. How excited will the card recipient be when they find a coffee shop gift card in the mug? If you want to know more, follow my Instagram & Facebook.



Wendy - Hello everyone and a happy Digi Choosday - the best day of the week in my opinion. Today I have a sweet little one layer card to share and it's all about Friendship as Life is definitely better with friends! I've used one of favourite collections for this card, the Freddy Fox collection, perfect all year round and definitely for those Autumn crafts. I've merged the Freddy with Poppy Flowers image with some little bees and the little bird from the ephemera set in my graphics software before printing and colouring with alcohol markers. The sentiment is also from the collection so a great all round set. Have a wonderful day everyone xxx





Wendy - Hi everyone! Who's ready for Christmas projects? I've recently discovered Memorydex cards and it's been so much fun creating them. These types of cards are on the smaller side, and the precolored images that Polkadoodles offers are so much easier than trying to color tiny places. I used the Time To Give - coloured image from the Winnie White Christmas Big Kahuna Bundle. I used some of the beautiful papers to create the Memorydex envelope base, the pre-colored image to add a card to the inside of the envelope and one of the adorable toppers to create a magnetic envelope seal.

Renske - Hello everyone. This time I started working with Mail letter post cute Helga Hippo. She's so cute. I wanted to make the theme of the card a post theme. So I made an envelope fold card. Place the triangle flap behind Helga Hippo to close the card. I coloured Helga Hippo with my alcohol markers. For the design paper, I used the sets of Pretty Printable papers 1 Helga Hippo and Paper Heaven 1 Horace and Boo. For the background, I cut patterned paper with a large stamp die. I also die-cut out some envelopes from the patterned paper. To complete it I used the digital stamp Just a note to say Hi. I edited this with the distress ink antique linen. And to finish this off, the text from the Winnie and Daisy sentiment set is the word HI on the inside of the card.

ENRICA - Hi everyone! This week the DT was asked to make a card with a closure of some kind and for my project I used one of my favorite digital images, the super cute Mailing letters - Noodle Panda Bear colored with Copic. I’ve creating my own background coloring and creating bamboo and if you want to learn how to do it don’t miss to follow the tutorial on Polkadoodles Crafts channel on YouTube. Digital patterned papers are from the Spring Tons of Love paper patterns 1. Love how this cute card turned out, hope you like it too! xx


Irre - I created this journal cover using this cute Winnie Daisy Fairy printable stamp. I love using digistamps with mixed media techniques, a lot of people have a hang up about not being able to use printables but they are very versatile, you just need to learn how to use them well!


Judy: Hi there! The DT was asked to create cards for this week's challenge with some kind of closure.I opted to make a gate fold card with a belly band to hold it closed.The patterned papers used are from Noodle Panda Set 1 Printable Paper.The focal image used is the digital stamp,Out and About Honey Pie.I colored with Prismacolor Pencils and fussy cut before adding to a die cut scalloped circle attached to the belly band. The sentiments on the front and inside of the card are from Winnie Daisy Fairy Everyday Greetings and Quotes.


Martine - It's that time of the year again.... making your christmas cards! I made my card with an ribbon...to close him. And i put a little bell on it..for that christmas joy! But isn't that image adorable or what? She is called Winnie Christmas Wishes . And i put a little ticket on it.. you get it here : Serenity Fairy Wishes Sentiments . See those flowers?... that winter look on it is..... sugar! Put a little glue on the tips of the flowers and sprinkle some sugar over it,,,that simple!


Kel - I knew when I saw this digi I had to play with her!! This character has long been a favorite of mine even before the Netflix show... I know I'm aging myself here but I loved watching the black and white reruns on tv with my dad. This cutie is Winnie Wednesday Skull and she's paired with some basic orange and black paper from the Gnome Trick or Treat Halloween Papers 2 set. Her sentiment is from the set Gnome Trick or Treat Halloween Sentiments - there is so much in this set I don't think I've made a dent yet in using them all!! Hope you come join us! lovies, =o) kel Visit me at http://blog.scrap-photograffs.com

Kim Stewart - HO HO HO Digi Choosday friends( well at least we're working towards that!). This week's Christmas theme got me in the holiday spirit. We were asked to create a card in a christmas theme along with some type of closure. I designed an angled gatefold card with a belly band closure. The gingerbread holly coloured images from the Gingerbread Holly Big Kahuna Bundle are just too cute and I couldn't resist pairing them with some festive papers from the Theo Penguin pack 4 and Theo pack 1. See you next time!




Rachael - Hi everyone. I wanted to make a card that looks really complicated but is actually simple and easy to make, especially for mass production. There are loads of shaped and interactive dies out there, so why not use them with one of our kits such as this one called Winnie White Christmas. These have all the coloured images, and backing papers meaning you don't have to worry about colouring or matching the colours. Print, cut and stick, for the most stunning card that looks like it took hours to make!

Great inspiration from the team this week, thanks everyone for your hard work!
