Digi Choosday - Halloween Party - Halloween Party Sign | Door Hanger - Creepy Creatures Collection - with Polkadoodles


Hello everyone and happy Wednesday... 
I hope that you're having a great week...Almost at the end of October my goodness the year is speeding by and only. few more days until Halloween.

We won't be here in Spain this year to celebrate as we will be in Japan for several weeks, touring the country and I'm not even sure if Halloween is celebrated there or not - I'll let you know !






It's time for the Design Team to share some more inspiration for our current 'Anything Goes' challenge over on the Polkadoodles Digi Choosday Blog. I hope you are going to join in and don't forget the amazing Digi Choosday discount off all crafty printable downloads! 

Don't Forget that our challenges our now 4 weekly so there's loads of time for you to join in and more chances to win too!





The theme set for the DT this week by Nikky was to create something else for a Halloween Party,  so I thought what else do you need for a party ?  Hmm a party sign or door hanger of course.

I love a bit of recycling (and its free !) so for my sign today I started out with a rectangle of packaging card, it's the sort that has a corrugated centre.  I carefully removed small sections of the top paper layer to expose the corrugated areas and then used black gesso to cover both sides of the card.

Next I chose some papers from the Creepy Creatures collection and tore the edges roughly before adding these to the black base card.

I decided to add some small strips of gauze too between some of the paper layers for a bit of texture.  I used my Crop-A-Dile punch to add a couple of brass grommets and then tied some purple twine through these.

I added a few pieces of washi tape and some die cut black card splats next.

The Halloween letters were die cut from gold glitter card and foam and layered onto the sign in a wonky fashion. 

Next I printed out a couple of the pumpkins from the ephemera pack and one of the sentiments and fussy cut these out, adding them to the sign along with glossy accents on the pumpkin eyes.

Finishing touches were splatters of black Wink of Stella pen and black sparkly gems.

I think this would be perfect for hanging up at a spooky Halloween party !


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




Hasta luego 👋 


Enjoy the rest of your day !

Digi Choosday - Halloween Party - Halloween Cakes - Magical Fantasy - Hocus Pocus Collection - with Polkadoodles

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday... I hope that you're having a great week...This year is going by so fast I can't quite believe that it's the Middle of October already......it'll be Halloween before we know it LOL


We won't be here in Spain this year to celebrate as we will be in Japan for several weeks, touring the country and I'm not even sure if Halloween is celebrated there or not - I'll let you know !





It's time for the Design Team to share some more inspiration for our current 'Anything Goes' challenge over on the Polkadoodles Digi Choosday Blog. I hope you are going to join in and don't forget the amazing Digi Choosday discount off all crafty printable downloads!

Don't Forget that our challenges our now 4 weekly so there's loads of time for you to join in and more chances to win too!





The theme set for the DT this week by Nikky was to create something for a Halloween Party, I decided I would create something Halloween style cake decorations.  

As you can imagine this went down particularly well with Mr Jaackson as that meant he would be able to eat the cakes once I had taken my photos......He has such a hard life

The actual cakes are Magdalena's, which are traditional Spanish small sponge cakes or muffins flavoured with lemon zest and olive oil. They are light, fluffy and typically baked in paper liners with a crunchy sugar crust on top. Spaniards commonly enjoy them for breakfast or as an afternoon snack, often dipped in coffee or milk.  

Mr Jackson loves them at any time of the day.

I started by cutting squares of lime green and orange metallic finish tissue paper and adding 2 squares to each cake, securing the tissue in place with elastic bands - its doesn't have to be anything fancy, you could use twine if you wanted.

Next I set about creating the little flags for each cake, using pinchos sticks which are 6" wooden sticks, normally used for skewering pinchos or pintxos.

I printed out several pre-coloured images from the Hocus Pocus - Autumn Fall Treats bundle and the Hocus Pocus - Witches bundle, fussy cutting these out.

Next I used a fancy edged die to cut 6 circles of black card and then 6 smaller circles of orange or purple card stock, layering these up to create the bases.

I used a little distress ink on some of the sentiment backgrounds and added a couple of stencilled cobwebs to a couple of the circles.

The little coloured elements were then adhered to the disc using foam tape before adding sparkly gems, glitter pen and white gel pen highlights.  I adhered small pieces of bakers twine on the back of the little balloons

Once all the cake decorations were dried I used a hot glue gun to stick the wooden poncho sticks to the reverse of each and added a decoration stick to each cake.

I don't think it could actually get any easier and these would be perfect for any party - shame they won't last very long in our house LOL


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




Hasta luego 👋

Autumn and Fall Card & Crafting Ideas - New Release - Winnie Autumn Wishes collection with Polkadoodles

Hello and happy Tuesday everyone... I hope that you had a great weekend and the week has got off to a good start. 

I'm relieved to say the slightly cooler days returned and the nights are definitely easier now for sleeping - still with the window open but that's not such a hardship.

Off to the coast today with friends for lunch and a good catch up as we haven't seen them since around May. 

We're so lucky as Nikky is really spoiling is with another new release from Polkadoodles called Winnie Autumn Wishes and I have to say its gorgeous !.




Winnie Autumn Wishes – is a fabulous original collection of cute Digital Stamps, Clipart & Card Making Printables including Autumn/Fall digital stamps, pre-coloured clipart, printable papers, greetings and ephemera.

The collection is perfect for card making, colouring/colouring, junk journals, printable stationery, scrapbooking and digital scrapbooking. Colour the black and white digi stamps with Copics, Spectrum Noir or Ohuhu/alcohol markers, Prismacolor pencils and watercolour/watercolour pencils, or choose the ready-to-use coloured clipart and pre-coloured images. 

The high-resolution 300 dpi PNG files are easy to print, resize and use in your favourite projects, with transparent backgrounds where applicable. Look out for SVG and cutting files for Cricut, Brother Scan N Cut and Silhouette Cameo too. Create beautiful handmade cards, colouring pages, junk journals, planners, printed stationery, and digi scrapbooking projects with original, unique Polkadoodles artwork designed to mix and match throughout the collection.

There's loads of inspiration for you to see in the Inspiration Gallery on the Polkadoodles Website.

I've been really enjoying using the pre-coloured images for a change so I have carried on with this collection .  My first project today is a stunning little picture that I've made for my craft room using the pre-coloured image Crafting Autumn.  It's a really easy project and cost next to nothing to create.

I started off with a simple black mat photo frame that cost me about £1 from one those bargain shops - we have loads here usually Chinese Bazaars and its great what you can pick up for crafting projects.  I started off by removing the glass from the frame and then used some gilding wax gently rubbing this over the black frame - it's given it a really antiqued and quite expensive look.

Next I resized the pre-coloured image of Winnie Crafting to suite the 4" x 6" frame size and added the sweet sentiment into the corner before printing out.

I decided to embellish the frame fussy cutting out leaves, mushrooms, the robin and flowers from the ephemera set 1, layering these on the frame with 3D glue gel.

I added strips of the washi style tape onto the background before mounting the image into the frame.

To finish off my photo frame today I've added clear sparkle pen over the Winnie image and glossy accents here and there.


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


Hasta luego 👋 


Enjoy the rest of your day !

Hello card Ideas - Little Ballerinas - Just a Little Note to say Hi - with Lili of the Valley LOTV

Hello everyone wishing you all a lovely Friday - I hope that you have had a lovely week and something nice planned for the weekend.

We've had such a busy week again, walking with friends on Monday and then shopping  on Wednesday down on the coast for furniture for our new terrace upstairs.  Hopefully its going to be delivered next week so JJ is busy finishing off the pergola roof and making a cabinet for the fridge to go it.  It going to be lovely place to sit in the evenings.  I also went to my very relaxing yoga class this morning so I'm now feeling very chilled and looking forward to our Friday night Date Night in town.

The weather has finally started to cool down thankfully so sleeping it definitely getting easier and we will soon be able to get some tidying done in the garden too.  Lots of the plants are looking very tired indeed so I'm hoping we will get some rain soon too to revive them.

The cooler days will also mean I can start colouring with my promarkers again - they definitely do not like the heat at all.


  



I'm back today to share a sweet little hello card using one of the digital stamps from the recent little Ballerinas release by Lili of the Valley (LOTV) available from the Etsy shop. The collection includes 9 gorgeous little images that come in black and white line art for you to colour and they are also available recoloured too if you prefer.

My little hello card today features the Little Ballerina Shy digital stamp coloured with my promarkers and then fussy cut out by hand.  

I adhered a layer of co-ordinating plain paper and an embossed panel of purple card at the top, keeping the background simple so the sweet little girl is the focal point of the card.  I sanded back the embossed area and added a touch of pink distress ink to show the embossed detail.

Finishing touches of white gel pen highlights, clear sparkle on the ballerinas dress and the sweetest little hello sentiment.


I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Lili of the Valley (LOTV)






Hasta luego 👋 


Enjoy the rest of your day !

Mice Party - Summit to Celebrate - Let's Celebrate - with Lili of the Valley LOTV

Hello everyone wishing you all a lovely Wednesday - I hope that you are having a lovely weekend and the weather is being kind where you are....we're currently having a few slightly cooler days which is lovely only 37C today LOL....and there is even a possibility of a few drops of rain for Thursday and Friday....I wish....

Everyone seems to have gone Eclipse crazy...trying to buy glasses last minute to be able to watch the event tonight!

It's going to be a total eclipse over Mallorca tonight and we had wanted to go and stay for a few days to see but it's crazy. the hotels were charging sooo much and inviting on a weeks stay.  So were gong to go up on to the house roof to watch.

We're only expecting a partial eclipse of about 95.8% here where we live with the event starting at 7:42 pm, maximum eclipse at 8:38pm ending at 9:09pm. Then the sundial set at 9:13....so I think it's going to be pretty special to see.


  





I'm back today with another cute card using one of the super cute digital stamps from the Mice Party Spring release by Lili of the Valley (LOTV) available from the Etsy shop. The collection includes 12 sweet  little mice, all ready to celebrate.

My fun and colourful card features the Summit to Celebrate Mouse image, coloured with my promarkers and I have added lots of lovely sparkle to make my card extra special.

I adhered a layer of co-ordinating striped paper from my stash to the 5" x 7" card base, covering it completely and then used a wavy stitched border die to cut out the mouse panel layering this onto the card base.

Finishing touches of white gel pen highlights, sparkly confetti and clear sparkle on the cake and a little drop of glossy accents to the mouses nose.


I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Lili of the Valley (LOTV)






Hasta luego 👋

A Passion for Markers Blog Spot Challenge #845 - Animals - Just me saying hello - Sponsored by DisDigiStamps

Hello and a happy Tuesday to you all I hope that you are having a lovely week !

So were having another heatwave and its taking its toll on me already - I'm feeling exhausted most of the time and been sickly too.... I definitely need to stay in the cool as much as I can this week.

I'm here today to let you know that a new challenge has started over on the Passion for Markers Blog.



This week our challenge is being sponsored by Dis Digi Stamps and the theme chosen by Nat for team 2 is Animals.



Di has recently released some new digital stamps on her  Etsy shop and I decided to treat myself to one from the new collection as soon as I saw the kitties...perfect too for today's challenge.





I decided to create a really sweet one layer card, resizing the image to suit my A6 card before printing out on alcohol friendly card and colouring with promarkers.  Next I die cut an arch from a piece of scrap paper and positioned this over the image so I could stencil a design over the image leaving the centre arch clear.

I added a little grey ink to the inside of the arch too to emphasise the design.

The sentiment was stamped onto a strip of white card, cutting the ends into tails before adhering to the card with foam tape.

The card was simply finished with white gelly roll pen highlights, clear sparkle pen to the goldfish bowl and some clear sparkly gems.


I really hope that you have enjoyed my card packed with flowers today and will drop by again to see my next project and don't forget to join in with the challenge over on the Passion for Markers blog


Hasta luego 👋 


Enjoy the rest of your day !

A Passion for Markers Blog Spot Challenge #841 - Favourite Colour combination - Hope your day is buzzing with Joy - Sponsored by Clearly Besotted

Hello and a happy Tuesday to you all I hope that you are having a lovely week !

The weather has been wonderful so far, lovely and hot during the day but not too hot at night - so far LOL.

We are busy preparing the house for my cousin and her husband arriving on Thursday and Im really looking forward to seeing her again - we have loads to catch up on.

We have lots of days planned, lots of meals and drinking and obviously chilling by the pool too.  Im hoping to persuade her to come to Yoga with me too on Friday.

I'm here today to let you know that a new challenge has started over on the Passion for Markers Blog.


This weeks challenge is sponsored by Clearly Besotted Stamps and the theme this week is Favourite colour combination. - I find this really difficult as I have lots of colour combinations that I love and it all depends on how I feel at them time but for today as the bees are busy in the garden I chose to Pink, Green and lemon for my card today.

It's a simple circular card made using one of the gorgeous images from the Buzzy Bee collection by Polkadoodles.  This is Buzzy Talk, coloured with my promarkers.

The circular card was die cut from yellow card stock and I used a layer of paper from the collection as my base layer.



To finish off my fun Buzzy Bee card I added sequins around the design, lots of sparkle and lots of glossy accents to the little bees.

I really hope that you have enjoyed my card today and will drop by again to see my next project and don't forget to join in with the challenge over on the Passion for Markers blog


Hasta luego 👋

Digi Choosday - Hope your Day is Buzzing - With Wraparound - Twist & Pop Card - Honey Bee Dreams - with Polkadoodles

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday... I hope that you're having a great week so far......I cant quite believe it's the end of May already...its definitely true when they say that time flies!




It's that time of the week to share some more inspiration for our current '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 Digi Choosday discount off all crafty printable downloads!

Don't Forget that our challenges our now 4 weekly so there's loads of time for you to join in and more chances to win too!





The theme set for the DT this week is to make a project with a wraparound.

I decided I would make a new card style - well new to me at least....LOL  This interactive card has been around for ages but I've never made one before so I thought I would give it a go.  It's an A6 sized Twist and Pop Card and I was surprised how well it came together.  I have learnt a few things as well whilst making it so have a few tips to make it.

I chose to use the Honey Bee Dreams and Busy Bee Gnomes collections for my card today using papers, a sentiment and ephemera to all coordinate.

The actual card itself was constructed using a yellow card and is made from 3 main pieces.


One thing I will do next time I make this style is convert it into inches as my scoreboard is imperial and it was tricky to get the score lines in the right places.

The card base measured 10cm x 30cm scored at 15cm.

The inner panel measured 9cm x 26cm scored at 6.5, 13 and 19.5cm

The mechanism measured 9cm x 20cm.  On the 9cm side scored at 4.5cm t create a centre fold. Then on the long edge mark each end at 5.5cm.

Score a cross diagonally between these marks then fold and burnish the folds.

If you want some better instructions and to see how the card is assembled I would suggest watching this video on YouTube 

I used some pretty floral papers and a sentiment from the Buzzy Bee Gnomes collection and the ephemera on the panels inside are from the Honey Bee Dreams collection



Next time I make this card I will also avoid the edging trim on the panels of the card as this catches slightly on the mechanism as the card is closed but it's good to learn !

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



Hasta luego 👋


Enjoy the rest of your day !

A Passion for Markers Blog Spot Challenge #839 - Happy Birthday - It's Cake Day! - Sponsored by The Paper Shelter

Hello and a happy Tuesday to you all I hope that you are having a lovely week !

The summer has arrived here in Spain and across most of Europe too so I hope everyone enjoys the wonderful weather and keeps cool and hydrated.

We went walking on Sunday with our local walking group and I had far too much sun so Im keeping out of it today as much as possible.


I'm here today to let you know that a new challenge has started over on the Passion for Markers Blog.


This weeks challenge is sponsored by The Paper Shelter however very sadly they have now decided to close down their shop so this weeks prize will be the digital stamp that has been used by the design team - A Curious Cake.  It's a wonderful image however and great for both male and female celebrations.

Out theme this week is Happy Birthday and has been chosen for Team 2 by our lovely Elaine - we all need lots of birthday cards don't we LOL

I decided for my birthdy card today to create a fun pop up card from an aqua cardstock.  The card  was cut at 6" x 9" and then scored on the long side at 2" on either end.  The card was flipped over and then scored at 3 1/4" either end to create a central pop out panel.



I used some fun foiled papers to decorate the card panels and then resized the image to fill the front panel printing this out on alcohol marker friendly card stock before colouring in with my Promarkers.

I used my ScanNCut to cut out the coloured image and then matted this onto the card with a couple of diamond panels cut from the aqua card and white. The fun sentiment is from Polkadoodles from the Coffee, Tea and Cake collection, again cut out with my ScanNCut.


To finish off my fun birthday card I added a few pieces of confetti around the design, lots of sparkle and lots of glossy accents little.

I really hope that you have enjoyed my card today and will drop by again to see my next project and don't forget to join in with the challenge over on the Passion for Markers blog

Digi Choosday - Have a great Day - Colour Palette - CAS Card - Noodle Panda Collection - with Polkadoodles

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday... I hope that you're having a great week so far......I cant quite believe it's the middle of May already !

Summer has definitely arrived here and we've been so busy lately with friends staying, trying to get gardening done and even a little walking in the mountains.



It's that time of the week to share some more inspiration for our current 
'Anything Goes' challenge over on the Polkadoodles Digi Choosday Blog so I hope you are going to join in and don't forget t
he amazing Digi Choosday discount off all crafty printable downloads!  

Don't Forget that our challenges our now 4 weekly so there's loads of time for you to join in and more chances to win too!





The theme set for the DT this week is to make a card using the following colour palette

It's such a pretty set of colours, reminds me of ice cream flavours.... must be the heat LOL. 
 I decided to use one of the very cute images from the Noodle Panda Collection I know I probably shouldn't say but Noodle is probably my favourite character.   

I wanted to create 2 really simple cards at once (why make one when you can make two ) so started off with a strip of card roughly 1 1/2 " in width and then adhered 1/2 " strips of coloured card to this to create a striped patterned, then cut this strip in half adhering each of these, on an angle to a panel of white card that I had already printed the sentiment onto. 



Next I chose the sweet Gift Parcel Noodle, printing him out and colouring him with promarkers.  I decided to create 2 similar cards so resized the image to suit an A6 landscape card, flipping the image through 180 to create a different image.  

The colours used were coordinate with the colour palette, each of my pandas having a slightly different colour palette.


To finish  off my clean and simple cards I added some fun clay swirls around the design, white gelly roll pen highlights and clear sparkle to the presents bows.
 
I hope that you like my project today and you'll enjoy the next that I share from Polkadoodles.
