New Challenge at Polkadoodles Crafting

Morning everyone,

So I made it until the end of term, and now I can sit back, relax and enjoy the summer, although I must say it is far too hot for me at the moment. I haven't been near my craft room this week as it is like an oven in there, instead I have spent the afternoons sat in the shade in the garden catching up with with a bit of cross stitch and have really enjoyed it. The mercury outside hit 37 degrees yesterday.

Anyway today we begin a new challenge at Polkadoodles Crafting. The team were asked to make a creation with the theme 'so sorry'. I have coloured up the beautiful Winnie Lovely Bouquet and used distress reinkers to colour her. This lovely lady is also available as a pre-coloured image, you can find her here  so if colouring isn't your thing, she is all done for you.

The papers are from the Eden Plain Jane 2 collection and the sentiment is from Winnie Celebrations Kit 1. Links to the materials I have used are at the bottom of this post, just click on a picture to be taken directly to the product.

New Release from Dreamerland Crafts

Good morning everyone,

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend.

Today I am sharing a card I made using another of the new releases from Dreamerland Crafts.

This stamp is so cute and is called 'Til We Meet Again' awww. 

I have coloured up the image with distress reinkers. To create the polka dots on her dress I dotted on some Pebeo drawing gum, and left it to dry before colouring. Once you have finished colouring you just rub it away.

The die at the top and bottom of the card is a Joy Crafts die and the flowers, pearl string, ribbon and lace are from my crafty stash.

The gorgeous buzzy bee embellishment was a gift from a crafty friend.

DI list:

Skin: Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick

Hair: Gathered Twigs, Walnut Stain, Black Soot

Dress: Victorian Velvet

Hat: Gathered Twigs, Victorian Velvet

Bear: Brushed Corduroy, Gathered Twigs, Antique Linen, Worn Lipstick

Grass: Forest Moss, Shabby Shutters

You can find the link to this stamp here

That's all from me today.

Thank you for popping in.

Good morning everyone,

I hope you have had a great week. One more week of school left before the holidays - not that I am counting lol.

Anyway we begin a new 'Anything Goes' challenge at Polkadoodles Crafting today.  The team were tasked with a 'Little Princess' theme - use any girly image, make something for a girl under 16 and to include something that can be for her bedroom.

I came up with a dream catcher. I must confess I didn't make the dream catcher, but I have added some pom pom trim and ribbon to it.

The image is called Octavia Moonfly Unicorn which I have coloured with distress reinkers and I've added some Star Dust Stickles to the to the magic (horn) which doesn't show up very well in the picture.  

The flowers have been cut from a Polkadoodles Flowers 2 Cutting Die and the papers are from 

 Lil Miss Sugar Pops Kit 1. I sprayed a tiny amount of ink on them too and added some brads to the centres.

DI list:

Skin: Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick

Hair: Hickory Smoke, Weathered Wood, Seedless Preserves

Unicorn: Iced Spruce, Seedless Preserves
