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



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


Kerri - Hello, happy Digi Choosday! Today I'm sharing a slimline card I made using the new Graduation release, I thought I'd work a bit ahead so I have this card in my stash ready for th ebig day next year. This release is SO cute! I combined the girl digi with a balloon, the pencils and books in Canva to make my own image and then printed it onto Kraft card and colored in. I LOVE all the extra ephemera and bits and pieces you get in this kit, it adds all the perfect finishing touches - and the papers are also yummy too! Make sure you check it out, it's a great bundle you'll be able to use for loads of different celebrations.

Wendy - Hello everyone happy Digi Choosday! Do you like sports ? I have to be honest it's not my thing really but Nikky challenged us to create a Sports themed project so as it's been Wimbledon in the UK I decided to go with a tennis theme. I've used the very cute Love All digital image from the Love Always collection. As its been so hot here lately I decided to try a bit of water colouring with distress inks for a change as my alcohol markers definitely don't like the heat and its good to challenge ourselves from time to time. It was definitely a challenge but I'm pleased with the end result. The papers are from the Lets Hang Out collection.
Have a fabulous week. Love and crafty hugs Wendy J x


Jane – This adventurous little lady is from the WINNIE DAISY FAIRY 2 collection and I have used the very sporty VINTAGE CAR.

KM- Hi everyone! Today I'm sharing this 'medal' I made for a little gymnast! I used this super cute image from the Work & Play 11 collection and attached a pretty ribbon I knew she'd like.

Kerri - Here's a 2nd card I made using the new Graduation release - I can't stop using this, the images are so adorable! Again I combined the ruler digi with the pencils and placed them behind the Boy (I also added glasses to him!) and then also added some of the precoloured ephemera as well. I love making a composition which is a bit different, I hope you like it. To finish off I also made my own background paper using the books digi too and added some of the great Strip sentiments included.


Ana - Platform Pop-Up Card: Girl Power Edition!For this week’s Digi Choosday, I created a platform pop-up card that’s all about celebrating strength, determination, and girl power!The star of the show is a cute but fierce female runner digi stamp from Polkadoodles, which I colored with markers. I built the platform pop-up base using cutting dies and added a fun polkadot background using one of the printable pattern papers from Winnie’s Let’s Hangout bundle. The finish arch was cut using my Cricut, and I used puffy stickers to spell out “FINISH.”To show our runner crossing the line, I added a ribbon as the finish tape and carefully snipped it in the center—just like that victorious moment at the end of a race! The sentiment “It’s your time to shine” from Wanda Messages and Quotes felt perfect for this little win. I scattered a few sequins for a touch of sparkle and a mini confetti celebration!Want to recreate this card? I’ve put together a step-by-step post here with all the details!Can’t wait to see what you’ll make for this week’s Digi Choosday challenge—let’s create and cheer each other on!

So let's take a look at the Design Team's creations this week!

CHRISTIN - For my clean and simple card I choose this cute chick with flower, which I coloured with my alcohol markers. The borders of my stitched background I inked with yellow distress oxides. At least I dye the sentiment also with the yellow and put some highlights with my gel pen.

Rose - Hello friends, Hope you al are excited for new challenge. Today, I am using a pre-coloured digital image Wings of Love coloured Topper sheet 3 with a combination of digital papers Pretty Winnie Daisy Papers. I added a few Nuvo white dots with sentiment .


Wendy Jackson - Hello everyone. This week the DT was asked to make a Clean and Simple card, with Birds and Flowers so I have used the cute chick with umbrella from the Springtime Smiles collection coloured with my alcohol pens. I have created a little sparkly puddle for my chick to splash in and added a little ink blended behind the image. I have used one of the stamps from the polymer Hello Sunshine to stamp little raindrops on the background panel. I hope you have a lovely week.

LORENA - This time I have made a card of my favorite style - clean and simple. Wearing this cute little bird digistamp with its flower adorning the head. The feeling that I have chosen seems to me to be very consistent with the expression of the little bird. The papers are from this set and the greeting is from this bundle.

Maria - Hi everyone, Do you struggle to make Clean and Simple Cards? I do, I just don't know when to stop! ha ha. For this week I've tried to keep it simple for this lovely Thank you card.
It features the Mailing a Letter Digital stamp from the Lil Miss Sugarpops 3 Collection, and shows her posting a Thank you card. I coloured this in with my colour pencils and mounted it onto a flowery digi printable patterned paper from the Spring Gnome set. The sentiment is from the Quotes/Sentiments Lil Miss Sugarpops Kit 1 & 2 set. I hope you have a lovely creative week. Maria's Makes | Facebook

Monika - Hi it's Monika and today I have quite an unusual project for me. I tried something out of my comfort zone and I have to admit that it was a lot of fun. Usually, my projects are very colourful and I play with composition, however today, I've got a clean and simple card for you. I used the most adorable digi Owl image 'Too Cute Owl Love' and I coloured it in with my alcohol markers. Did you know that Polkadoodles also have SVG files? I used one of them for the background, it is called 'Diamond Lattice' and it is perfect for clean and simple cards. To add a little bit of colour, I used the flowers from the 'Lavender Tea' collection. If you haven't seen it yet, check it out, it has so many amazing elements!. Do you like creating Clean and Simple cards? https://www.instagram.com/quillinglady/
