Digi Choosday - We Wish you a Merry Christmas - Colours of Christmas with Polkadoodles

Hello everyone and happy Tuesday.  Wishing you all a lovely day today and that you enjoy the week ahead.

It's that time of the week when we launch a brand new 'Anything Goes' challenge over on the Polkadoodles Digi Choosday Blog so I hope you are going to join in and don't forget the amazing discount off all crafty printable downloads until midnight today!

The theme set for the DT this week is Santa / North Pole & Colours of Christmas and we were given this colour palette to use.  

I love making Christmas cards using non traditional colours so really enjoyed this challenge.

For todays card I decided to use one of the fabulous older images from the Winnie Winter land collection of digital stamps.  There are some absolutely gorgeous digital stamps and a great selection of pre-coloured craft sheets too if you prefer not to colour.

Its a simple 5" x 7" card with a scalloped frame of magenta glitter card, keeping the scene the main focus of my card.

I coloured the image with Promarkers (see below for colours) and then blended distress inks over the background to create a  wintery North Pole sky.

The sentiment was printed onto vellum so it wouldn't detract from the scene and adhered into the top corner of my design.

I have a very special DT discount code that you can use for all your shopping on the Polkadoodles online shop at checkout use WENDYJ-10 and you will get 10% of your entire purchase (not in conjunction with other discount codes!)

I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Polkadoodles.

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !
