Mini Christmas Gift Box - Polkadoodles

Hi Everyone

For my DT project this week I have created a Christmas Box.

I have used the stamps and dies form form Gnome Lets Get Blitzen and coloured with Poromarkers. The papers for the box was taken from 6 x 6 Happy Christmas paper pack. To complete I created a tag for the sentiment found in the same stamp and die set and tied it onto the box with some metallic/ glittery curling ribbon.

Perfect for those little treats for chistmas

I hope you like it

Coffee and Pancakes

Hi Everyone

Sharing a DL card made using the 'stacked pancakes' digital image and 'Holiday Latte' digital image from Not 2 Shabby

This is how i like to spend my Autumn days - hot drink and hot pancakes... hmmmm

The images have been put together in a word document and then printed out.

I have coloured them in with Promarkers and die cut with a scalloped rectangle die backing it on to Kraft card.

For the background I have used different shades of yellow distress ink all over the card I then used Vintage Photo distress ink and a Coffee bean and stain stencil over the top.

Finally I added some hessian twine and backed onto Kraft card before gluing to the DL card.

I hope you like it!

Bat Gnome - Polkadoodles

Hi everyone,

It that time of year where we are beginning to share my Spooky cards. We don't really celebrate Halloween in Wales, although we do take my son trick or treating around the family - so Halloween cards are a bit redundant - but i always like to make some Halloween themed occasion cards just like the one I have created below for the Digi Choose day Challenge

I have created a DL card using the new Bat Gnome from the Halloween Gnome Bundle form Polkadoodles.

The image has been coloured with Promarkers and fussy cut.

For the background I blending 3 different distress inks, Villainous Potion, Dusty Concord and Seedless Preserves onto a scalloped DL die cut using a die cut white circle to mask off an area for the moon - I then used a cloud stencil and Black Soot distress ink to create the spooky cloud effect. to complete the background I flicked some white paint and left to dry.

I then added the slopes with a stencil and Black Soot distress ink. to complete I die cut a sentiment from the Gnome Trick or Treat Printable Greetings set and added 2 die cut bats.
