So let's see what the Design Team have been making this week, which is all about back to Autumn Colours...

Jennifer @pueen_queen - Today I went with something a little different, and made a bookmark. I used the Polkadoodles cute koala digital stamp as the centerpiece. I colored everything with alcohol markers, including the background. I used some circle punches to make a stencil for the bokeh inspired background. After that, I simply punched a hole at the top and attached a couple of beary punny sentiments from the Noodle Panda sentiment digital download pack.It's so easy crafting with Polkadoodles digital stamps! I hope you like what I've created. Have a creative day 😊

Kim Stewart - Happy Digi Choosday, How did we get into September already? Have you started your Christmas cards or Christmas Shopping yet? For our 'Not a Card' theme this week using a bear, and a specific colour scheme I chose the new Bella Bear Christmas Big Kahuna bundle - so much to choose from!. I created 3 Gift Card holders using the black and white version of the digis . My choices of sentiments also come from the same set. I used digital paper packs Wings of Love Paper pack 4, Theo Paper pack 3 and finally Bella Bear-y Christmas paper pack 1Finally I cut out some ephemera from the Bella Bear-y Christmas pack.

Martine - Hello everyone, this time i have got.... not a card for you... lol
That was our challenge this time. So... i did make you a plastic cup with a panda in it.
I thought it was cute.... I used the panda "Hanging on tree branch " for it . He is hanging on a piece of very thin thread. So tyou almost can't see. On the bottom i put some fine leaves, on the top bigger leaves. And then you see that text.. that is from this bundle : Noodle Panda themed messages.

Catrin - Hi everyone, today I have created a little thin appature box, using a template on my Cricut Machine, using the printed papers from Eden Collection - Paper Heaven 2. I then printed, coloured and fussy cut Bella Bear Morning Coffee.

Jane – Christmas is getting closer and closer so today I have a wall hanger to celebrate the season. This is BELLA BEAR ICE SKATING and she is taking her life into her hands trying to make her way across an ice rink full of die-cuts! The background uses stamps from the SNOWFLAKE GARDEN and CUTE AS CHRISTMAS sets and I have also used textured paste through the HOLLY BORDER stencil…not that you can see any of that under all those dies.

Candace - For today's challenge project, the theme is not a card, use a bear image and color palette pink and yellow. I used the image Bella Bear Morning Coffee that comes with black and white and colored image, four printable pattern papers and a sentiment. This set was perfect to create a cute treat bag!!

Shruti - Today I've created this gift tag using Bella Bear with Heart Gift (precoloured) And the sentiment is from Watercolour Flower Stem Isn't it a cute gift tag for your loved ones? :)

Samantha - So I have a young daughter whom I am always trying to encourage to read, and one of the ways I do this is by making her cute bookmarks. Today I am sharing a bookmark I made featuring the Bella Bear Easter Bonnet digital stamp set which I Copic-colored in bright pinks and peaches. I added Bella to a background using two coordinating sheets of pattern paper from the Pretty Winnie Daisy papers set and added a sweet sentiment from the Winnie Daisy greetings, quotes, and sentiments set. The final touches were just a little ribbon and some flower embellishments I had in my stash. Now to see if my kiddo will actually read enough to need it! I'd love you to follow my IG account at @sammakescards and blog at sammistamps.com


The team have been really busy this week - thankyou Team!

Today we are thrilled to welcome 2 new DT members so a huge big welcome and hello to Jennifer and Samantha, we're so excited to see the projects they'll be bringing for us all!


Nat Martin - Hi everyone! Another week goes and we’re almost welcoming another season. Yay! Autumn is coming and I must confess that this is one of my favorite seasons. I specially love its colors, so, my project inspiration talks about this :) This time I have used this digitals designs: Cute Rebel girl and Park Scene . Once I have all my coloring complete, I have create a little cute planner and a different pencil cover ;). I think this could be a perfect gift for a friend in her back to school routine. For creating the Planner, I have used the Rebel pretty printable patterns. For the coloring I have used Copic Markers and Polychrome pencils:
  • Trees and Rebel girl hair: E08-YR07-YR04-Y38
  • Grass YG97-YG95-YG93-YG91
  • Path E35-E33-E31
  • Rebel girl hat: BG78-BG75-BG72-BG70
  • Rebel girl Dress E79-E77-E74-E71
  • Rebel Girl Flower YR23-YR31-Y21


Maz - for my Autumn/Fall Colours project, I created this tag using the Sunflower Cart from the NEW Autumn Fall Halloween Treat Bundle I added extra pumpkins from the Ghastly Ghost Halloween Bundle. I decorated with a few leafy dies from Super Sprigs Die and branches from Iced Branches Die All details can be found on my blog


Maritza: Hello my crafty friends for this week, I made a card with Autumn Fall /Colours, I have used Holly Painted Love, digital papers are Spring in to the Easter Paper Heaven 3, I painted this image with colours pencil. Happy Crafting!

Monika - Hi all crafters, It's Monika with a Tri Fold Concertina Card perfect for the Autumn Season. I have to admit that I just love colouring digi stamps from Polkadoodles and today I used Autumn/Fall digi stamps, I coloured the images using my alcohol markers and the leaves turned out stunning, I really like their shapes. To decorate the card I mixed a variety of digi papers (that's what I love about Polkadoodles design papers, you can mix and match them to achieve great results); the green digi paper comes from Winnie Wednesday Halloween Bundle, the yellow bright digi paper is from Spring into Easter set 3, the dotted background is from Work & Play 10 Paper Heaven collection and the light brown comes from Paper Heaven 2 Horace & Boo. Have you ever made a concertina card? Happy crafting!

Christin - It is slowly becoming autumnal. Today I have this
Natures Beauty coloured in autumn colours with my alcohol markers. For creating this background I used a flowering stencil and Distress Oxides. The sentiment is from the rebel collection, they are versatile.

Wendy J - Hello everyone I hope you are well. It's time for a new Digi Choosday and the theme for this week is Autumn Colours - I love Autumn where we live and I wanted to create a woodland scene so have used Mr Sox the Fox for my popup frame card today along with 5 Autumn colours of distress inks and leaves using stamps from the recent Mixed Flowers collection.

So let's see what the Design Team have been making this week, which is all about back to school ideas...

Today we are thrilled to welcome 2 new DT members so a huge big welcome and hello to Jennifer and Samantha, we're so excited to see the projects they'll be bringing for us all!


Pueen Queen (Jennifer)  - For this fun back to school card, I started with Polkadoodles an apple a day digital stamp. I colored this adorable little girl with ohuhu alcohol markers and finished her up by quickly fussy cutting her out. For the background, I used a sun ray stencil and a grass stencil with ranger distress inks to imply a sunny morning. I clear heat embossed the blue sky and added some clear glitter paste to the grass for a little sparkle and shine. The "have a fun day" sentiment is from Polkadoodles noodle panda themed messages, digital message printable pack. It was easy as print, cut, glue for this sentiment. I did pop it up a bit on some thin foam squares to help it stand out from the background.
Finally, to make this card extra fun, I popped up my school girl on an action wobbler. I think the first day of school should definitely be fun, and what's more fun than an interactive card? I can't believe how simple and easy it was to create this card with the Polkadoodles digital products! I hope you love my fun, back to school project today. Have a creative day. -Jennifer S.

Samantha - Hi everyone. Today I am featuring a card showcasing the ever adorable Winnie headed back to school using the Sharing an Apple image Copic colored in blues and reds. For Winnie’s dress, however, I did a little paper piecing using a printable paper from the Winnie White Christmas digi downloads set. I also used a corresponding red striped paper from the same paper set for the background along with a little subtle ink blending with Distress Oxide ink. And yes, you can use digital images for paper piecing techniques, you just have to run the same sheet of paper through your printer twice, once for the paper image and a second time for the feature image. To finish things off I used theEnjoy sentiment and I couldn’t be happier with how this cute card turned out.

Catrin - Hi everyone! Send an encouraging back to school card to someone with this fab image, Reach for the Stars - Rebel - I have used a beld on blue distress inks on the background and added some white gel pen dots and stars. Rebel has been coloured with promarkers and Gold Glitter Glue has been added to the stars. The Sentiment is from Rebel Messgaes with attitude and heat foiled with reactive foil.

Jane – This super sweet NOODLE PANDA is called GRADUATION YOU PASSED. I gave him a black card blackboard and used white ink through the stencil from the FUNKY FLOWER FRIEND COLOUR & CREATE set to add a chalk effect. I decided I needed a pop of colour so used a gorgeous blue paper found in the NOODLE PANDA SET 2 DIGITAL PAPERS.

Martine - Hey there, I am back for school! Well... not me actually , i am passed that stadium lol.
But my card is ! I used Helga Hippo for this one....Working hard it`s called. The paper i used is from Paper Heaven 1 . I added a pencil and a little bottle with some ink in it. Hope you like it!

Shruti - To make this card the main element of the card is from Apple A Day/Teacher/School PRECOLOURED digital stamp with a Clock from Helga Hippo - Design Sheet 1 Duo
and for background papers I've used below papers from Coffee Tea and Cake paper patterns bundle
and the Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime DESIGN SHEET 3. Also, is there anyone who has noticed that I've used a lined notebook's page :D in the background. Hope you like the card.

Candace - For today's challenge project, the theme is Back To School. I used the image Sugar Pop An Apple a Day Backpack, pattern papers from Plain Janes and Gnome Men BBQ and the sentiment is from Rebel With Attitude Easy Snip Message Strips. I used Posydoodles Circle Dies to cut out the paper circles on the base of the card.

Kim Stewart - My Design Team project this week with a theme of Back to School(where has the summer gone to?) I chose to do a set of cards with a boy and a girl(hmmm grandchildren starting kindergarten in Sept) ;-) CAS for me this week! I picked Rebel Rainbow - she really looks so much like my granddaughter as well as Little Dudes Cool Dudes which I coloured with my Copic Markers.
I chose paper selections this week from Noodle the Panda pack 2 , Winnie Celebrations 3 pack 2 and lastly from Gnome for Men Dad/Father. What have you been working on this week?

The team have been really busy this week - thankyou Team!
