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

So let's see what the Design Team have been making... 


Wendy - Hiya everyone I hope that you are having a lovely week. Time for some more inspiration for our Digi Choosday challenge and today I have a pretty card to send someone special to tell them how much you love them. It's a Fence or Lattice style card and I thought it was perfect to showcase the wood panel papers and flowers in the Udderly Cute Collection. Its a really easy card to create and the measurements are on my blog if you want to know how I made it. The daisy ephemera, sentiment and the papersare all from the new collection. I finished off the card with lots of sparkly gems and clear sparkle pen for a special card. Love and crafty hugs Wendy x


Eve - I used Polkadoodles Lilac Haze watercolour flowers download and printed it 3 times so that I could fussy cut the flowers to add layers. I added some yellow glitter glue to the centres and layered them onto purple card. The background paper comes with the download as well as 6 other pretty papers. The flower image that I used is pre coloured but there is also a black and white image if you wish to colour it yourself. The sentiment is Spring Flower Mothers Day Friends greetings sentiments which I fussy cut and layered. The 'Mum' sentiment is from Mother's Day messages sentiments - again fussy cut and layered. The beautiful tag which I just had to buy after seeing Nikky on Hobbymaker TV channel is called Ribbon tag heart dies which I mounted and fussy cut onto purple card. Finally I added a Pretty Flower Flourish die with a brad for the centre and used my sewing machine to stitch around the edges of the card.



Kathie - Good morning and welcome to all my crafty friends and welcome to another Digi Choosday. It’s time for a new challenge for me once again. Our design team theme is Mother’s Day or a Mum’s birthday. We had free range with the colour palette which made me happy. I’ve made a birthday card for a special friend who loves the garden and tulips. I chose this image knowing full well she will love it. She has kept every card I’ve ever made for her. This wonderful Polkadoodles image is DLPD 9225 Butterfly Flowerpots this image comes black & white for you to colour as well as a coloured image and it also includes sentiments. The design paper used was DLPD 9391 Flower Wreath #8. The image was coloured with the following Copic Chio markers: 0, C0, C1, E11, E33, E35, RV02, RV13, W05, YG00, YG03, YG06, YG63 and a black gel pen. I look forward to commenting on whatever you make. Happy crafting everyone. You can find my complete instructions for this card on my blog here.


Jane Hi everyone! It was my Mum’s birthday last week, so I made her a card featuring thegorgeous elements from the PARTY TIME collection. I used this super cute PARTY BALLOON BUNNY RABBIT as the main image, then in Word I created a little scene around her with the elements from the PARTY BUNDLE. I used my favourite technique of printing my scene directly to the patterned paper, adding a shadow behind each image to give it some depth.

Zel - I Printed Helga hippo flowers and foliage and have it cut through my scan and cut machine to be mu focal point .For my layers I prepared a 4x5 green textured cardstock and a piece of 2x5 textured yellow card stock . For my card base an A4 white cardstock will do. I first adhere the green cardstock to my cardbase making sure that it is centered . I adhered the yellow cardstock on top of my green cardstock but this one is a little bit off centered. I also wanted to have layers of my focal point thats why I adhere the leaves on top of each other and added foam square to my flower and adhere it on top of my leaves. I added pearl embellishment to create a motherly look and for the final touch I adhered Sending Happiness sentiment from Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Sentiment. I used the Flowers and Foliage colour clipart for this project and Winnie Sugar Sprinkles quotes. Would love it if you could follow me on social:

Judy - For my inspiration card this week I am sharing a birthday card perfect for your Mum or Mom.
Using Sending Love - Udderly Cute. I colored this adorable digi with Prismacolor Pencils and fussy cut. My shaped card is backed with papers from Udderly Cute Printable Paper Packs 3 & 5. Pieces from Printable Ephemera - Udderly Cute were added as embellishments.

LIZ - Are you ready for Spring? I am ready to feel a little warm sun and see the lambs in the fields, so I couldn't resist using the Secret Garden Shelf Sitter mdf kit, which I coloured with some markers from my stash, adding bits of added dots for the blossom and toadstool caps,The flower effect on the front wall was created using the Wild sunshine stencil with some white ink through, a few more dots were added too, lolThe paper I used is from the Daisy Daisy paper pack, used on the right hand side to match with the flower effects in the scene,As it's Spring I couldn't resist adding some Rabbits and a sheep from my stash, Have Fun!!


ANA - For this week’s Digi Choosday DT prompt, we were to create something for Mother’s Day or Mom’s birthday. I decided to design something that could work for both occasions, a fun and thoughtful Do Not Disturb door hanger just for Mom’s special day! This project features the adorable Honeypie Sweet Flower Bouquet and Winnie Sunshine Delight Cheeky digi stamps, which I colored with alcohol markers for a bright and cheerful look. I paired them with a pretty pattern paper from the Happy Cactus Succulent collection for a fresh, bright, floral and happy background. To make it even easier for fellow crafters, I created a ready-to-use Design Space template for Cricut users (note: the digi stamps are not included here, you have to upload your preferred digi yourself). It’s a quick and versatile make that can be customized for either Mother’s Day or a birthday celebration, or just like me - both. If you’d like to see more of my crafty projects (and a few cat photos too), I’d love for you to follow me on my socials! Instagram: @my.cat.and.crafts Facebook: My Cat and Crafts

So let's see what the Design Team have been making...


Nina - Today it’s DigiChoosday again at Polkadoodles – and this time everything is all about tags. I still needed a gift tag for a present, so I layered two large tags with a smaller one on top. For the background, I used beautiful floral digi papers from Spring into Easter Set 2 and Just Lovely – Honeypie. The soft pastel colors are a perfect match for the adorable girl from Out and About – Honeypie This image comes in two versions: a pre-colored one and one you can color yourself. I chose the pre-colored version this time because it’s super quick to use and still looks so sweet and detailed. I placed the girl on a white die-cut floral wreath and decorated the tag with a large white flower for an extra special touch. To finish it off, I added the sentiment Happy Spring from Quotes – Winnie Special Moments. And just like that, you’ve created a lovely gift tag for presents and packaging. Hope you like it!

Kim S - For our project this week it's all about tags using Cutie Patootie Honeypie. I chose these Honeypie precoloured digi Dancing Queen , Love Heart as well as Honeypie Just Lovely . I created my tags in a pastel pink colour scheme and added mini rosebuds precoloured from the Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Embellies pack . I cut my tags out of a wonky square die and layered scraps of decorative paper behind Honeypie from Party Time Birthday Celebration as well as Winnie Daisy Fairy ...

Hello Kim D here! Today I am using this image Honeypie face mask. Oh remember those dark days! Well it is cold and flu season so a mask might once again be useful. This would also be so cute for a get well card. I colored her up using my copics.

Kaye - This week is a tough one as I challenge myself to make a tag that would combine the femininity of our cute little Honeypie and the strength of the theme Shape Up - so I made a tag shaped as a dumbbell, with a printed Pretty Spring Papers and attached Love Heart Honeypie along with a handwritten quote Strong is the New Pretty. Enjoy!...MY INSTAGRAM: @kayeskraftivitee_

ANA - For this week’s Digi Choosday prompt, Shape Up!, I created a set of cute Honeypie embellishment clusters that doubles as gift tags. And since Honeypie’s definitely one of the sweetest characters of Polkadoodles, I decided to use all my Honeypie digis for this project - layered embellishments that can be used on cards, scrapbook pages, or even as gift tags.
For this set of clusters, I used the following Honeypie digis - Honeypie Cutiepie (circle), Honeypie Sweetheart Balloons (heart), Honeypie Cat Naps (square), Honeypie Just Lovely (scallop circle) and Honeypie Love Heart (star). I also used the pattern papers Plain Janes Wanda and scraps from Set 3 Wanda Pattern Papers plus different sentiments from Spring Tons of Love.
To make this set, I printed and colored my Honeypie digi stamps with colored pencils, then used nesting dies in different shapes to create the bases of each cluster. To build dimension, I simply layered different embellishments such as trims, flowers, pearls, and gems, popping the digi images up with foam tape for added depth. These embellishment clusters are easy to customize and can be used in so many different projects. Join the Anything Goes Digi Choosday challenge and share your creations, we’d love to see what you make! Don’t forget to follow me for more crafty inspiration on Instagram @my.cat.and.crafts, Facebook: My Cat and Crafts.

Rachael - Hi everyone. Rachael here, sharing some inspiration from the bright and beautiful collection. I love a CAS card, and this collection was made for this! Using the circle shutter die, and the dahlia flower die I was able to make this beautiful wedding card. I just cut the dies from white card stock, colouring the flowers with alcohol markers. The great thing about these flower dies is they can be simple like this, or inked. layered and shaped for more realistic looking blooms!

Thanks so much to the team for their GORGEOUS inspiration this week!

So let's see what the Design Team have been making...

Today we are excited to welcome new Teamie Eve to the team! We know you'll love seeing her amazing projects every week and we're thrilled to have Eve with us here at Polkadoodles! Welcome, Eve!

Eve - Hello everyone! I'm excited to be on the team! I used Polkadoodles Winnie-sugar-sprinkles-springtime-design-sheet and fussy cut some of the elements. The polka dot backing paper is from Polkadoodles -udderly-cute-love-digital-papers which I layered onto some pink card. Then I used my sewing machine to stitch around the edges. Finely I added some yellow glitter glue and gems. I hope you'll follow my blog - I'd love to follow you back!

Zel - This card is a fantastic blend of whimsical and a relatable Mother's day card perfect for working Moms. First I printed this precoloured digi stamp Wanda on a 300 gsm matte photo paper and then Scanned and cut it through the Brother Scan n Cut machine.
Next , I printed papers from the SET 1 Wanda printable digital paper patterns to a piece of a white cardstock then ran it through a die cutting machine with a scallop die. I did the same for a pink cardstock, I die cut it with a scallop die and glued the patterned paper and pink cardstock together to make a layer. I adhered the patterned paper to a slant position. Before I glued a Working Wanda digistamp, I first colored her clothes with a pinkish palette as well as colored the chair with grayish Prisma colored pencil. Once I am done coloring her, I used tombow Glue to adhere her on top of the patterned paper. I then adhered the layer on a gray cardbase. Next thing I did was to print this Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Sentiment on a white cardstock and cut it into square shape and adhere it to my card with a foam tape. And for the last step, I added pinkish brown enamel dots to create a visual balance.My facebook is also: https://www.facebook.com/springklewithcards

Kathie - Hello and welcome to Digi Choosday! It’s time for a new challenge for me once again. Mother’s Day will be upon us before we know it or it could be Mum’s birthday. The colour palette we were given to work with was completely outside my comfort area but it’s taught me to think outside the square. So if you have that special lady in your life here’s the chance to make a wonderful card for her. I chose this image knowing it could be used for multiple genres from Polkadoodles image Flower Celebration Cake - this image comes black & white for you to colour as well as a coloured image. The design papers used were Love & Kisses Paper. Our brief was the colour palette, all I could think of was oh no! The image was coloured with the following Copic Chio markers: C1, C2, E02, E04, E11, E25, E35,RV13, RV21, RV42, YG91. I must admit once my card was finished with added embellishment set on Kraft Card, I was really happy with my final results and I look forward to commenting on whatever you make. Happy crafting everyone. You can find my complete instructions on my blog kathiezkardz.blogspot.com/

Wendy - Hello everyone I hope that you are having a wonderful crafty month. We're back today with more inspiration for the current Digi Choosday blog challenge and this week its all about those Mother's Day cards. I don't make many of these cards so I've made a thinking of you card using the fabulous Udderly Cute Collection. Nikky asked us to stick to a pink colour palette so I thought the ephemera from the collection would be perfect! I chose one of the floral papers from the paper pack 1 for the background of my card and added white and grey arched panels and a circular panel with a sentiment stamped from the Funky Rosy Posy stamp set.The ephemera was cut with my ScanNCut machine and then layered up for a a dreamy look of an Afternoon Tea - My Mum would have loved this card . I finished of the design with lots of sparkle on the Macaron and hearts and sparkly pink sequins. Have a wonderful week. Love and crafty hugs from Wendy x

Jane - Hi everyone! For my Mother’s Day card I have chosen to use the TONS OF LOVE collection that is full of super adorable elephants. This particular image is called LOVE FLOWERS and I coloured her with Copics and then cut her out with a heart-shaped die. To mimic the heart on a string that she is holding I used off cuts from a flourish die and added a tiny bow too. Some doodling around the edge (xoxo = hugs & kisses) and a pink heart gem finished off the design.

Ana - This week’s Digi Choosday DT prompt is Mother’s Day or Mom’s Birthday, paired with a soft and pretty pink color palette, and I created a quick but heartfelt project… a Mother’s Day Coupon Book.
This little booklet is filled with sweet, thoughtful coupons that moms can redeem anytime. It’s the kind of gift that focuses on love, effort, and time, making it extra meaningful and perfect for Mother’s Day or even mom’s birthday.
I designed the cover and pages using Canva, then brought everything together with pretty Polkadoodles digi elements. For the background of the booklet cover and coupons, I used Winnie Celebrations 2 – Papers 2. The cover features the adorable Bella Bear Morning Coffee Digi Stamp.
The coupon book includes 10 coupons, but you can easily add more to personalize it even further. It’s a fun, easy project that can be customized for any mom and recreated in no time. Check out more coupon ideas here! I hope this project inspires you to create something special for the amazing moms in your life.

Judy - My inspiration card for this this week was created with Heartfelt Wishes - Udderly Cute. This cute digi was printed, colored with Prismacolor Pencils and cut down to fit a slimline card base. One of the papers from Udderly Cute Printable Paper Pack 4 was used on the bottom of the card. I used 2 papers from Udderly Cute Printable Paper Pack 3. One was placed on the top of the card. I fussy cut flowers from the other to use as embellishments. The sentiment is from Udderly Cute Printable Greetings. It was printed and cut with an oval die. I matted and placed over a banner strip.


Thanks so much to the team for their GORGEOUS inspiration this week!
