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

Adam - Using the five Winter Christmas Foliage layering stencils, I chose non traditional colors to make the background layer of this card. I used two dies from the Vintage Christmas Holly Baubles Outline dies set to decorate the background. Finally finished with an embossed sentiment from the Merry Christmas Text Wreath dies and mounted background on two layers of co-ordinating card stock.

Julie - This week we were challenged to create a Money Holder card. I love when the Design Team can create with their choice of an image, so I chose to create with Bauble Hat Bella. I designed up a quick and easy gift card/money holder card using super fun printable paper from Polkadoodles. I colored Bella using Copic Markers and added some “beary” Cute sentiments from Christmas greetings. The complete details for this project can be found on my blog. Happy Crafting! Follow me on: Instagram/Facebook

Wendy - Hi everyone! I just love this little Gingerbread Cookie licking the yummy Christmas pudding off his spoon. He's just one of the many sweet images available in the Gingerbread Bundle. You can find him in the Baking Bundle, and I've paired him with the hot cocoa and ornament cookies from the ephemera bundle. Stop by the store and checkout all of the Gingerbread kits just waiting to be on your Christmas cards!

Carrianne - Hi there, crafty friends! Our challenge this week was to create a money card, and I was thrilled because the holidays are coming up, and money cards are appreciated in my family. I created this moose-themed money card using the Elvis Wesley Moose Themed Paper and Elvis Wesley Moose Themed Sentiments. I used an envelope punchboard to smooth out the corners. Of course, I had to include a moose, so I used the Mistletoe Hello - Elvis Wesley Moose. I added a few snowflakes to complete the card.

Copics used:

Moose: E41-E42-E43-E44-E47

Scarf/Mitten: R00-R02-R05

Shirt: YG00-YG01-YG03-YG23

Boots: C3-C5-C6

Mistletoe: YG61-YG63, R17

Taty - For this project I created a coin holder useful for giving away money or gift cards. Inside the ticket we find a mini pop-up bag. I decorated the project with the digital image of the sleigh loaded with gifts from the Winnie Winterland collection - Design Sheet 10 SKU WWLds 10 that I cut out to apply on the front of the card together with the phrase that is part of the Heartfelt wishes PD7962 rubber stamp set . Sending hugs, Taty

Merja - This time I created a fun card to give with a money gift. I used the Curly Christmas stamp set to create the "envelope" part. I stamped the Christmas baubles on a white cardboard, coloured them with watercolours and cut away the part above the baubles. Then I cut a little bigger base from a green cardboard and taped the cardboard I just made on it from the edges. After I had done the envelope part I cut a card to go partly inside the envelope from a blue cardboard. I cut the holes where I can put a 20€ bill and rounded the upper part of the card. Then I printed Gift Box Parcel Bella and Cooper Christmas Puppy images, coloured them with alcohol markers and fussy cut them. I also made some gifts from Theo Penguin paper bundle 3. I taped the images and the gifts on the card so that they are just on the edge of the envelope part when the card is in and just over the money when the card is out of the envelope. Lastly I added some stars on the blue part of the card with a glitter yellow paint pen.

Rachael - Hi everyone. These postage dies are everywhere at the moment and you can use your digital images with them too. Just measure the space you have and adapt the size of your digi image to fit. I the cut around the image in the right size rectangle and added them onto the blank die cut. I used the latest Theo release for this but you could use any of the polkadoodles sets for this!

Leah - It’s challenge day and I have a fun (although not so digital) project for you today! I used the Let’s go Gnome clear stamp that features an adorable gnome and reindeer. I coloured this image with my Kalour coloured pencils. The sentiments are from two different sentiment sets: Birthday Sentiments and Christmas Greetings. I also used the Baked with Love Paper Heaven 1 digital paper for the background layer of the card front. Lastly, I added some fun and festive enamel dots and sparklies.

Kerri - This is a card I made using Gift Tree - Gnome Festive Fun digital stamp. I printed it onto white card stock and colored him up with Prisma Pencils. Sentiment comes from the stamp To Gnome You Is To Love You.

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