Winnie Hooray Beautiful Easel Card

Morning everyone,

I hope you are all well.

It's time for me to share some more Polkadoodles inspiration.

This time I have coloured a beautiful Winnie called 'Hooray', she is one of my favourtie digis and comes as a black and white or pre-coloured image.

I have put links to the materials I have used at the bottom of this post, just click on a picture to be taken directly to the product.

  

I have coloured her with distress reinkers. Before colouring her I applied some dots of Pebeo drawing gum to create the spots on her top and sprinkled on some frantage around the outside of the image.



DI list:
Skin: Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick
Hair: Hickory Smoke, Tumbled Glass, Black Soot
Top and Shoes: Stormy Sky, Black Soot
Trousers: Hickory Smoke

The papers are a mixture from the Peeling Paint paper pad and Winnie White Christmas (papers 4) digi collection. It just show show versatile these Christmas papers are that you can use them all year round.

 

The Elegant frame is so pretty, cuts beautifully and comes as a set of three.

I hope you like my card and feel inspired to make your own.

Happy crafting:)

Hello Pretty coloured with Distress Reinkers/Zig Pens

Good morning everyone,

I hope you are enjoying your weekend. It's the start of half term for me, so I am looking forward to some rest, relaxation and craftiness.

This morning I am popping in to share some Polkadoodles inspiration.

I have coloured up another of the beautiful Holly digis.  This gorgeous lady is called Hello Pretty. She is available as a black and white or pre-coloured image.

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.

 

I have coloured her with a mixture of distress reinkers and zig watercolour pens.

Colour list:
Skin (Zig pens) Natural Beige, Oatmeal, Beige, Pink
Hair: (DI reinkers) Walnut Stain, Antique Linen
Dress and Flower: (DI reinkers) Victorian Velvet, Scattered Straw
Heart: (Zig pens) Deep Red, Wine Red
Shoes: (Zig pen) Brick Beige

The papers I have used for this card are from the Vintage Journal and Ephemera paper collection. They are lush and you get so much in the pack. You don't just get get papers, there are journaling cards, sentiments, quotes, and postcards

 I've used a fair bit of shabby white frantage on this creation and I thought I would share with you how I transformed the plain brown doily.

Once I had die cut it

I pressed it into the Versamark ink pad, sprinkled on the frantage and heat set it with a heat gun. It doesn't have to be tidy and most of it is hidden. I think it looks so pretty with the frantage on it. I used the same method with the leaves.

 

I also cut some flowers with the Flowers 2 dies. I cut the two largest dies for this project using some the scraps from the Vintage Journal and Ephemera paper collection. Once cut I scrunched them up, edged them with walnut stain distress ink and using my ball tools gave them a bit of shape, pierced a hole in the middle and fed through some stamens.

Here you can see the doily and one of the paper flowers.



I hope this post has been inspiring. We would love to see your creations in our FB group

Happy crafting:)

Hi everyone,

I hope you all had a lovely weekend and managed to have some crafty time, and if you are in the U.K. survived yesterday's storm.

We have a new 'Anything Goes' challenge at Ally's Angels beginning today.

This month I have coloured up the very first Tilda I ever bought, so she is very old, but still very cute. I have masked her with Spring Fence.

I stamped her onto Artistico watercolour paper and have coloured her with distress reinkers.

DI list:

Skin: Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick

Hair: Walnut Stain, Antique Linen

Dress: Spun Sugar, Seedless Preserves

Shoes: Hickory Smoke

Fence and Flowers: Gathered Twigs, Victorian Velvet

I have added some shabby white frantage to the die cut swirl and doily to give some texture.

All the embellishments are from my crafty stash.

The winner of the challenge will win this fabulous prize:

That's all from me today.

Thank you for popping in.

Take care.

Hugs

That's all from me today.
