Celebrate

Years ago I bought this digistamp from Cuddly Buddly Crafts as it had my 2 favourite things on it a fairy and a dragon ;) could not resist it at all :) but totally forget it over the years that I had it so you can guess how happy I was when finding it on my harddisk :) soo coloured it with Spectrum Noir Aquablend pencils, SN Sparkle pen and white dots with Molotow marker. First I am showing how I sometimes make a watercolouring background. It is really easy and it works best if you do not add to much pressure on your pencil when you touch the paper ;) Just use a brush and water to blend it all together ;) and add white dots everywhere ;) heheheheh loving my dots....

Then when creating my card I needed some custom colour flowers which I didn't had soo got my Spectrum Noir Aquatint Inks (pastels) out and coloured some white roses in the perfect tones for my card....

And finally made this card  with it all :)
Stamp is by Lilyboo at Cuddlybuddly, sentiment is from CC Designs, Die is by Crafters Companion, papers are nameless.

Happy Birthday Polkadoodles and Giveaway.....


Here is one of my teamies merged image of Serenity Joyful, Inspiring Foliage Background, Tortoise from Sticks & Bones and finally toadstools from Liliybug that I coloured with SN Aquablend pencils, Sparkle pen and Molotow Marker...and I used the Winnie Fruit Punch collection for papers, sentiment and flowers to compliment the merged image...

Happy 7th birthday Polka Doodles.
As this anniversary is normally called the "7 year itch", the Polka Doodles team have embraced the prickly feeling by scratching that itch and mixing/scratching up some new images ... get the pun? Corny we know but the team have had great fun. So to embrace the “itchy scratch” the Polka Doodles team have thrown caution to the wind and “scratched up” a different kind of birthday celebration.
The birthday celebrations will be running for 2 weeks and each day someone from the Polka Doodles team will be sharing their “mixed/scratched up” image. It’s been all hush hush and secret squirrel too as no one knows who has been busy creating what and when they will be revealing their image... so the Polka Doodles team get to join in the fun too. To add an extra layer of itchy fun, everyone has also been colouring up the new “scratched/mixed up” images, (still not knowing who designed them) and they will be sharing via their blogs and on FaceBook.
We really have scratched things up ... new merged images, no one knows who created what and no one knows when they’ll be sharing them ...!


Please do take the opportunity to visit the Polka Doodles team and see their new digi images because you will find a discount code (or two) along your way that you can use in the Polka Doodles shop

------------------------------

As an extra Surprise I am giving away this Notebook that I created this week with one of the cute Polkadoodles stamps.

So how does this work?
Leave me a comment and I will pick a winner on Monday the 23th of May.... and it is open to everybody :) even my teamies :)

It is an empty Notebook that I just decorated so you can use it for whatever you want ;)
