New Release - Party Time - Birthday Cake with Candles with Polkadoodles

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday.... I hope that you are having a good week....

Today I'm sharing another card that I've made using the brand new Party Time Collection!  which is bursting with cute critters, festive celebration cakes, balloons, and birthday fun. 

There are pre-colored digital stamps, clipart, and party-themed printables and it’s perfect for card making, scrapbooking and other paper crafting projects. Whether you’re making birthday cards, party invitations, or memory books, this collection brings cheerful vibes to every creation.  

This is a cute and very simple A6 pop up card using one of the pretty papers and a sentiment from the the collection.

The Birthday card with candles was resized and printed onto Neenah Desert Storm card before colouring with promarkers.  

For an extra special touch I have applied gold foil to the main image before fussy cutting out and layering onto the pop out panel with foam tape fro dimension.

The finishing touches were glossy accents to the icing on the cake, an enamel dots around the card.

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

Helga Hippo - Relaunch - Cake, Presents, Party ! with Polkadoodles

Hello and happy Monday everyone.  I hope that you had a lovely weekend.

I'm very excited today to share my first card using the fabulous relaunch by Polkadoodles of Helga Hippo and oh my goodness she's such a cutie. 

In this relaunched collection there's everything you would expect from Polkadoodles including black and white digitals, pre-coloured images, papers, sentiments and now including print and cut SVGs and there are clear stamps also available if you prefer.

I decided to create a simple  A6 size popup card from lime green cardstock, choosing papers from an earlier collection Coffee, Tea & Cake. 

I used the papers  to determine my colour palette, colouring Helga with my Promarkers before fussy cutting her out. 

The sentiment is from the Winnie Daisy Fairy collection, printed out and fussy cut.

I added glossy accents to the chocolate icing to give it a lovely shine and added some small die cut candles. 

The finishing touches were a few pieces of silver confetti around the design.

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 !

Big Birthday Wishes - Tons of Love with Polkadoodles

Hello and happy Thursday everyone....I hope that you are enjoying the week.....I think I have caught up with myself now after my trip - its amazing how long its taken me....unpacking, washing and catching up on sleep !

I'm back today to share another card made using the gorgeous new Tons of Love collection by Polkadoodles

Elephants are my absolute favourite animal - I would have a real one in my garden if it was allowed !

If you haven't looked yet, it's a great digital collection for all sorts of projects, Valentines, birthdays, New Babies, Spring cards and lots more and as always there are black and white digital stamps for you to colour and pre-coloured versions if you prefer.  There are 3 gorgeous paper bundles, a fabulous bundle of sentiments and there's also a set of elephant number images for those special birthday celebrations too.  

Don't forget if you want some more inspiration for this collection why not have a look in the Inspiration Gallery on the website.

Today's sweet card is using the digital stamp Gift Time, he is such a happy chap and who wouldn't want a present with him on top!

This is an A6 popup card, I'm loving this style at the moment as they are so easy to make.  

To make the card base I have used a cherry red card stock with a mat layer of deep red and then used 3 papers from the collection on the different panels of the card. 

For the centre popup panel I used a fabulous ricrac style die to cut a piece of the deep red card added a die cut layer of paper and then the cute elephant to the top with foam tape for dimension.

The elephant with his present has been coloured with Promarkers (see below for colours) and then fussy cut out.

To finish off my card I die cut different sized stars with some of the papers and adhered these around the design along with lots of gold confetti, star sequins and shimmer. 

The sentiment  is from the collection cut into a simple strip, layered onto deep re card with a touch of distress ink to take away the stark white of the card.

I hope that you like my card full of love today from this wonderful new Tons of Love by Polkadoodles and you'll be back to see another card from me very soon.

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !

Digi Choosday - Mother's Day - January girl - I've been thinking about you with Polkadoodles

Hello everyone and happy Tuesday.  Wishing you all a lovely day today and that you enjoy your 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 Mother's Day so I decided to make a Thinking of you card, Mother's Day is always a difficult day for so many of us and I decided to make this card to send to a special friend just to let her know that I'm thinking about her!

I chose to use a digital stamp from the beautiful January collection called Glass Half Full, she's so sweet and perfect for the card I wanted to send.

This is a very simple Pop up card that fits into an A6 envelope.  The card base has been cut from teal cardstock and then I've layered a colourful dotty paper from the Happy Cactus collection.  

I used this colour palette to colour my

January girl before die cutting out with a circle die.  I blended a little teal distress ink around the edge of the image and added some coordinating die cut hearts and gems. For a little extra detail I die cut two borders from the teal card and adhered these to the edges of the card.

The sentiment was printed onto thin card and foiled in teal with my Minc Machine, before adding t to bottom of the popup panel. 

Just a few co-ordinating gems were added to the hearts on the card.

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 !
