Polkadoodles - Colour Palette Challenge - Anything Christmas

-

 Morning Everyone,

I’m back to share some festive inspiration, Can you believe it is the 25th October!!!!!!!, 

For this challenge the design team were tasked to use a particular colour palette being:

 

  For my card I’ve used the Gift Tree Gnome festive fun digital image - 



I’ve coloured using my alcohol markers keeping to the colour palette. For the star and the bell, I’ve added some glossy accents to give some dimension and shine.

For my background I used digital papers from the Cactus succulentdigital papers - I printed the green, yellow, off white, and dark pink papers and cut a load of ¼ inch strips to make a striped background. For the light pink strip, I used the light pink paper from zodiac papers 3 No. 11. 

To complete the card I used the ‘You are a gift’ sentiment from the Winnie celebrations 2 digital download 

I also added some sequins and heart drops from little things by Lucy's cards.

Hope I have inspired you all and can't wait to see what the other designers have created and of course what challenge submissions we get, 

Happy Crafting! Mel x

Polkadoodles - Mermaid/Ocean - using a specific colour palette

-
Image
  Good Morning everyone, this morning I bring to you an infinity shaker card which I have created with the theme of Mermaid/Ocean and using a specific colour palette. I started my project by working on the background, which I ink blended using distress oxide inks using the above colour palette. I sprayed with water giving an oxidized effect which looks like bubbles. For my image, I used  Winnie Mermaid Mermazing - Octopus Kisses , as you can see the image also matches the suggested colour palette. It was almost as if this image was made for this challenge. For my sentiment I used 'You are my rock' from the  Winnie Mermazing Mermaid quotes . I hope you all love this project as much as I do.  Happy Crafting!

All features of my card have been taken from the Tropical sorbet bundle which fits with the challenged colour palette that the team were required to use and also uses the floral theme too. The sentiment 'Let your Dreams Blossom' is from the Winnie Daisy Greetings, quotes and sentiments  I hope you like. Happy Crafting!

Polakdoodles - Critters/animals

Morning crafters, today I've created a card with the DT theme of Critters/animals. Since I adore cats, I could not help but use  Mod the cat . In order to create my scene, I also used the chair , rug and picture frames from  Build a scene .  For the images inside the pictures, I used the butterfly from  Tropical sorbet bundle , the vase of blossoms from the  Blooms 4 bundle  and last but not least the Bear from  Bella Bear with Heart .  For my background, I used  the yellow floral paper to create wallpaper  from pretty spring papers and for the floor I used  brown textured paper  from the cactus succulent printable papers.  I coloured the images using my spectrum noir alcohol markers and finished the card using the sentiment 'I'm so sorry' which is from the  Winnie Daisy quotes and sentiments bundle .  I think the card just shows you how versatile all the different images and bundles are from Polkadoodles and showcases how amazing digital crafting is as you can adapt an
