Now let's check out the inspiration from our talented design team...

Corry  I made a christmas card for your inspiration....

I used the beautiful stamp winterflurries from Polkadoodles.  I stamped the swirl with embossing ink and powder.   Then I stamped and masked the christmasballs.After that, I stamped the trees and added some accents here and there...


The stamp I used is winterflurries...

Jan ~ For my project today I have altered this cheapy frame, It started life out being white, I used black Gesso on it (at this stage my hubby asked why I did'nt just buy a black frame!!!) I used  a little Bronze Guilding wax over. On some black card stock I stamped using Distress inks. I finished off making some stars I used texture paste through a stencil , the used black gesso and again finishing off with guilding wax....

Polkadoodles Essential Shopping


Terry For this month's challenge I have worked with bright colors, I played with different colors for the background and stamped with Distress Inks. I wanted to create a flowerarrangement with different clearstampsets. One of them is the Stamp Soup Regal Peacock, this set is really wonderfull to create your own flowers. On top of the flowers I have played with Accents to give the flowers a bit of 3D effect. Last but not least I placed the Sending Special Wished sentiment. 


The products that I worked with are:

Lou Sims: I have used a selection of Polkadoodles 'Believe in Angels' stamps & stencils -which is a huge collection - recently launched on Hochanda to create a stampbord photo frame. Stamps sets used: Flower Power 1 & Forever Special Angel alongside the 'Unicorn & Rainbows' stencils . A step by step tutorial can be found on my blog along with matching photos.
