New Release - Winter Birthday - Festive & Christmas cards - Mabel collection with Polkadoodles

Hello and happy Sunday everyone... Were off out today for a Christmas lunch with the walking group, it's going to be extremely noisy but good food and fun too.  Great for practising our Spanish too.

I'm sure that by now you have seen the brand new release by Polkadoodles, such a cute collection.

The Mabel Collection is a heart-warming range of cute girl character printables designed for card makers, planner lovers and creative crafters. 

The collection includes digital stamps, pre-coloured clipart, SVG cutting files, digital papers, sentiments and big-value bundles that are perfect for Christmas holiday cards, New Year celebrations, winter birthdays and year-round celebrations. 

Whether you prefer colouring black-and-white digi stamps or using ready-to-go pre-coloured images, these designs are ideal for making thoughtful handmade cards, printable craft stickers, planner stickers, junk journals, scrapbook pages, party décor and small-business craft makes.

There are 5 mini collections for you to choose from  Woodland Winter, Festive Wishes, Starry Celebrations, Cosy Cocoa and Pawsitively Festive but I definitely couldn't choose a favourite.

This is my second card using the new release but as always there's loads more inspiration for you in the gallery on the Polkadoodles website

My Christmas card today uses the Festive Wishes collection.  I coloured Mabel with my Promarkers before die cutting the panel with an arched die.

The card fits a standard 6" x 6" envelope and I've used a couple of the pretty papers from the bundle to layer onto the card and one of the sentiments

The finishing touches for the card was lots of extra sparkle to Mabel, white highlights to the image and some die cut snowflakes in red and gold to coordinate with the papers.

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

Happy Halloween

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !

New Release - Winter Birthday - Festive & Christmas cards - Mabel collection with Polkadoodles

Hello and happy Sunday everyone... It's the last day of November and I'm actually getting a little bit excited now about Christmas - I think all the work on the campo has made us both a bit shell shocked to its nice having work at a slower pace now and we can hopefully enjoy the trips out, Christmas meals  and the big day itself.

I'm still not quite back into a routine again with my blogging, I keep forgetting completely so apologies but hopefully it will get better - fingers crossed. LOL

There's a brand new release by Polkadoodles and its so cute you will love it I'm sure. I  would like to introduce you to Mabel - isn't she adorable.

This is my first card using the new release but as always there's loads more inspiration for you in the gallery on the Polkadoodles website

My Winter birthday card today uses the Woodland  Winter collection.  I coloured Mabel with my Promarkers before  fussy cutting her out.

The background was created using distress Oxides, blending to create a Wintery sky for the scene before splattering with water and then white ink.

I die cute a couple of snowy hills, one of these I had added the sentiment to before printing, adding a little lilac ink to the top edge and lots of sparkly snow.

The finishing touches for the card was lots of extra sparkle to Mabel's hat and scarf.

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

Happy Halloween

Hasta luego 👋

All About the Snow - Magic is in the Air - White on White Winter card

Hello everyone I hope you are having a lovely Sunday.....

I've had a few bit and pieces from other card projects on my desk for a few weeks and I thought today it was about time to use them or throw them away so here is a super sparkly Winter snowflake card.

There are a couple of challenges that I have seen too, one to make a white on white card and the other to feature snow so that was the inspiration for this card.

I love the look of monochromatic cards especially using white and it was an opportunity to use up some white glitter card scraps - too good to throw away.

The sparkly snowflakes have been die cut from white glitter card and white glitter craft foam.

The background layer is a piece of upcycled biscuit packaging that I have embossed using a snowflake folder.

I love the effect of the corrugated card with the embossing

To finish off the snowflakes on the design I've die cut some flower centres and then added clear iridescent sequins.

The sentiment is a simple strip sentiment that I've mounted onto card strips for extra dimension.

 

I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next card I share on my blog.

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !
