Frosty the Snowman

Hi there crafters,

Its time for a new challenge over st the Polkadoodles Crafting Challenge, Anything Goes, so why
not show us some of your fabby creations, I know you've got them.
https://polkadoodle.blogspot.co.uk/


I've used Frosty the Snowman from the Winnie in Winterland big kahuna download collection together with papers from the collection to they are so lush... you can also get the image on its own to
http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/winnie-winterland-big-kahuna-digital-craft-download-bundle/

In many places a typical snowman is made of three large snowballs of different sizes and there is a wide variety of styles to. They are accessorised with many things such as branches for arms, a smiley face which back in my day was made from coal and the obligatory carrot for a nose and of course he needs a hat and scarf to keep him warm.

Flower Dress

Hello there everyone,

At last Julia Spiri is back from her break so we can bring you some beautiful new images from her so talented pencil and paintbrush. This new collection is Fantasy Dresses and I'm using the beautiful Flower Dress, how pretty is she?

You can find her right here at the store: https://www.etsy.com/listing/560441283/

I've coloured her with copics using RV55, 66 and 63 for the flowers and Y17, 15, and 13 for the main dress. I rather fancy one of these flower dresses, thinking it may be suitable for doing the hoovering
in??

Hi crafty buddies

Today I've been doing a little bit of advanced planner decoration all ready for that spooktacular time of year.... yeah!!! Halloween. So hands up who's going to be dressing up and scaring the living daylights of people all for a few sweeties!!

Our Nikky at Polkadoodles has brought out this fab mini collection Winnie Wednesday. Guess most of you remember the Adams Family so Winnie is being Wednesday... what a cool little poppet she was to such a smiley character. I particular liked it when she went to summer camp remember that!!?

Wynona Witch

Hi crafty buddies,

I've a spooktacular new release for you today from the lovely Conie Fong. There are 4 new images in total all based around this little cutie. I've chosen to use this little witch, well I ask you how scary is she !!??

You can find her and all the other new images right here at the store
https://www.etsy.com/shop/ConieFongArt?ref=hdr_shop_menu

Trick-or-treating harks back to the Middle Ages and All Souls’ Day, when poor people in Britain would beg for soul cakes, a sweet-bread treat, and pray for dead relatives in return. When trick-or-treating first became popular in the United States in the 1800s, more children played mischievous pranks than asked for candy. By the 1950s, though, the focus had switched to good old family fun, with sugar-hyped children dressed in costumes. 


The candy-collecting tradition has spread from the United States to Canada, Australia, and Western Europe, where more and more little goblins now trick-or-treat. 


I've used a set of dies from X cut to create my spooky trick or treat scene and some pumpkins from Sue Wilson.

Harley

Hello crafty peeps,

Time for a new challenge over at the Sheepski Facebook Group, Anything Goes with a Sheepski image. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1730005463906336/

I'm using the fabulous Harley, what an awesome name for this scooter chick to. Isn't she just fab? I've teamed her up with a great Stampendous background scene stamp to, I thought it was ideal.

Scooters always remind of that cult movie Quadrophenia, not sure if I would have been a MOD or a Rocker!! Like the jackets for them both!!

You can find her here at the store https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/525761586/harley-image-no-103?ref=shop_home_active_8

Winnie White Christmas - Reindeer Cracker and Snowglobe

Hello Polkadoodles fans,

I'm sharing the last of my makes for the  New Winter/Christmas release
Winnie White Christmas 
You can find the big kahuna download right here at the store together with all the images, papers etc
http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/winnie-white-christmas-big-kahuna-download-kit-digital-printables/

For my last 2 projects I've made a little Christmas Cracker using one of the lush papers and the so cute Winnie all dressed up as Rudolph, Oh my how cute it that, the nose is just so awesome makes you want to squidge it!! I coloured it with copics using E29, 35, 33, 34, 31 for the reindeer outfit and the node was R39, 35, 29, 24


AND for my final project until the up and coming Polkadoodles challenges is a snow globe with Winnie making a snowball. I covered the whole image when coloured with some sticky back glitter paper to. Wow that was scarey at least I didn't mess it up and have to start again. LOL I used flowers from the collection and recoloured them in My Craft Artist to match my image colouring and a sentiment from the word art in the collection to.

A bicycle made for two - Winnie Special Moments

Hi Crafty buddies

Its time for a brand new challenge over at the Polkadoodles Crafting Challenge Blog. Anything Goes and great Polkadoodles prizes to be won. https://polkadoodle.blogspot.co.uk/

The DT are using a design sheet, so I've chosen one from the Winnie Special Moments Collection. It's just packed with special moments that you might be able to relate to in your life to. This reminds me of learning to ride a bike I had stabilisers to start and then Dad decided to let me on the grass without them thinking it would break my fall!!! and I just rode off on it. LOL not so steady now on a bicycle.

You can find the big kahuna download here:
http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/winnie-special-moments-big-kahuna-digi-kit-download/

Ashlee Toad Faerie

Hi buddies,

Today I'm doing a bit of fairy sharing, LOL I know you know I can't resist a fairy and this little beauty is no exception from Moonflower Digi Stamps this is Ashlee Toad Faerie.

You can find her here at the store
https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/235679520/ashlee-toad-faerie?ref=shop_home_active_5
I made a little garden scene for her using My Craft Artist and a digi kit.


So what do fairies eat I hear you asking well after some research this is what I can tell you:

The fairies’favorite foods include lemon jellybeans, peanut butter and marshmallow crème sandwiches, raspberries, powdered sugar puff pastries, homemade fudge, golden raisins, cherry chip loaf, pizza, salad, and snowflake fairy divinity. Fairies also like to drink root beer, flower nectar, iced coffee, hot chocolate, pomegranate juice, and iced tea
