Polkadoodles Feeding the birds

Posted on by Liz

Today marks the day for my final post on the Polkadoodles DT. The card I’ve made is a Christmas card as a reminder that it’s a good idea to make them all year around so that when December comes around again you don’t have to spend lots of time that you don’t really have to make more cards than you thought you needed. At least that’s how my Decembers tend to be. Too many cards to make and not enough time!

The stamp I have used is called Feeding the Birds and is a digital stamp. I’ve positioned it to the very side of the panel made sure it was big enough to get all the details to show properly. 

The card itself is super easy. I’ve taken a matching piece of scrap paper I had laying around and made a border at the top, which was added with foam tape for dimension. The same goes for the sentiment. A handful of matching sequins around the text finished off the card.

Copics used: B0000, B91, B93, B95, B97, B99, BV20, BV23, BG000, N0, N1, N3, W5, W7, W10, E00, E02, E08, E13, E15, E18, E19, E42, E43, E44, E71, E74, E77, E79, R22, R24, R29, R89, G21, G24, G94, G99

Polkadoodles Marigold

Posted on by Liz

It’s time for another Polkadoodles project today. As March is coming to an end, spring is just around the corner most places where it hasn’t quite reached it. Where I live, the last bit of snow melted away last week and the weather is warming up nicely. 

My card for you today is also spring themed and I’ve used the clear stamp Marigold Darling Buds. It’s been coloured up using Copic markers. I opted for a peach colour which matches the paper in the Soft & Scrumptious craft paper collection quite well, I think. I cut out a panel from the peach background with the green hearts and then cut out the coloured image in a smaller size before attaching it using foam tape. A simple sentiment to bring in more of the hints of green and a few peach coloured enamel dots finished off the card.

Copics: YR00, R12, YR0, R22, G40, G43, G46, YG67, E00, E02, E13, E15, E53, E25, E59, E49

Polkadoodles – Serenity Fairy princess

Posted on by Liz

There is a new Polkadoodles release today with new clear stamps. I have coloured up this adorable Serenity – Fairy Princess stamp and drew in a little background scene around her to give it a proper spring feeling. What is great is that it works for any season really, so you can use it however you like. The black lines of the hill is drawn in using a Copic Multiliner and I opted for keeping the clouds in a more no-line look. It was fun to use brighter and lighter colours than I normally use as well.

Bright pink cardstock for the card base and a simple sentiment with some enamel dots around was all I needed to finish off the card.

Here is another photo for you.

Polkadoodles summer winnie

Posted on by Liz

It has been cold here lately, but the sunshine that has come with really brightens everything. It does make me want summer, though, so I’ve made a summer themed card for today. The stamp is by Polkadoodles and is called Winnie Summer Day.

The card itself is simple, as usual, with a thicker frame, and then a doily, two die cuts where one is with the sentiment from the Everlasting Sentiments set, and a few sequins making up the embellishment. I’ve used some foam tape on both the coloured panel and the sentiment strip.

Below is another photo of the card where you can see the dimensions a bit better.

Copics used: E00, E02, E13, E15, E21, E23, E25, E27, E29, E41, E42, E43, E44, W0, W1, W3, W5, T0, T1, T3, BG11, BG13, BG15, BG18, BG78, R63, RV66, R11, R22, R32, R35, R39, G24, G28

Polkadoodles frosty smiles New Friends

Posted on by Liz

We have had such a great winter so far this year. It started snowing right before new years and yesterday it snowed loads! Unfortunately it’s been replaced by rain today. I hope it doesn’t all rain away. White and pretty beats grey and wet any day at this time of year!

So today’s card had to be another winter themed one! I’ve used one of the newer Polkadoodles stamps again. It’s called Frosty Winter Smiles – New Friends. This time I’ve opted for a pink card, and I coloured up the stamp in no-lines again. The main background paper is from the Blushing Blooms paper pad. For decorations I’ve made a cluster with various die cuts using scrap paper I’ve had laying around as well as more from the Blushing Blooms pad. A simple sentiment to kick start the Christmas cards for next winter and some enamel dots finishes off the look.

I’ve taken another photo of the card as well.

Copics used: T0, T1, T3, B0000, BG000, BV20, BV23, BV0000, BV00, BV02, BV04, W7, E23, E25, E29, YR31, YR23, E35, R81, RV32, RV34, RV95
