So, let's see what the Design Team have made for us today...

Nikky...I want to share a journal I made which is using the Creative Doodles collection here... I used an A5 piece of greyboard and then tore other random pages and layered them all slightly smaller. In the pic it looks like one page but it's actually 4 different ones made from different card and paper.


 The sheet in the middle is actually pleated rice paper although you cant really see it on the photo as there's a lot going on. I used the stamps and matching card packs and just cut and stamped a few pieces out, finishing off with the Alphabet stencil and stamp set which I just adore.
Products I used were:
Creative Doodles Collection


Corry This  time I've made a butterfly card.  I used distress inks for the background. I stamped the flowers and the hearts on the card and blended the flowers with chlorine....
After I stamped I have colored the butterflies.
I cut them out and glued them on the card
I placed some glitter in the heart of the flowers

the product I've used are

Jane - For my make this time I have created a Spanish/flamenco dancer using some of the fabulous Polkadoodles stamps and stencils.
Polkadoodles Goodies Used


Terry: I have created a card with using inks with all kind of colors for the background, I stamped some fabulous flowers from the Stampset Brighter With You on top of my background and used different kinds of small stamps from the set Every Wish in the World to fill up the blanks in between the flowers. Then I colored  the whole card with purple acrylic paint. I uncovered the flowers and played some more with white splatters acrylic paint and the Graph'It White Pen. Last but not least I placed the sentiment from the Clearstamp set Hello Friend....
I worked with the following Polkadoodles products:



Gorgeous projects as always! Thanks team, you're awesome!

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 Goodies used


Jane - I have made a card this time using paste, paint, watercolours and two adorable gnomes!!

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.
