So let's get to today's challenge...

Okay, HOW are we in August already?? We hope you're ready for another month filled with fabulous craft projects and exciting challenges!

Our lovely Design Team are here to show you some ideas for a 'Celebrate Summer' card this week - filled with marvellous hot pinks, oranges and lime greens! We hope you can all get some great inspiration here!


 Jane  So what does a gnome do on long hot summer days? Well, he heads to the beach and makes sandcastles of course! This cute guy is GNOME GARDENING and I used a star punch to give him sunglasses for that holiday vibe. The 3 impressive sandcastles behind him (he’s been busy) are a single image from the WINNIE STARFISH & SANDCASTLES bundle resized and melded together in Word along with a sentiment from the GNOME-TASTIC SENTIMENTS download.  The beach umbrella was created using the GARDEN GLORY Stamp Soup set.

Candace - For today's challenge project, the theme is hot, celebrate summer and use hot pink, orange and lime colors. I used Rocco Dinghy image, sentiment from Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles Quotes and digital papers from Tatty Twinkle Easter. These products made for a cute summer card and tackled the theme perfectly!!

Madison - Todays challenge is to celebrate Summer, through bright and fun colours. I have used my inks to distress some kraft card, and have made this lift and reveal card. I have made a pinwheel from leftover card and added some flowers and leaves to go with the tropical feel. The card is featuring the extra cute Llama and the perfect sentiment from Winnie Celebrations 2.

Sam - Well I have had a challenge and a half this time round with not only having to pull from my inner warmth to make a summer card in the peak of winter but I also load my glasses so I couldn't see! After tackling colouring a couple of images I decided what is available in the recoloured digital range and boy was I surprised and delighted. I made my card with the recoloured Let's Go from the Winnie Special Moments range and the Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles Design Sheet 3. I played around with ink to get the background! Happy Crafting.

Lee - I hope you all are having a smashing summer! It's sure beautiful and colorful in the mountains where I live! And bright colors abound in my sweet Serenity card today! I used the lovely Serenity with Fence downloadable and my Copics to give her a cheery, summery look! And the sentiment is from the gorgeous Love and Kisses stamp set! And the tweet little wooden button birdie. I had so much fun creating the background with the Flower Collage stencil and Distress Oxide inks! I hope you enjoy some crafty time and join our challenge this week!

KimHappy August everyone. For today's challenge I'd like to share with you my HOT card design. I used my favorite Polkadoodles digi WINNIE from the  Winnie Celebrations line called Let's Celebrate, https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/lets-celebrate-digi-stamp-printable-download-winnie-celebrations-1/ which i colored with my Copic markers. I matted her ontop of papers from the Digi paks (which i might add are so easy to download and print out) https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/eden-paper-heaven-plain-jane-5-digital-craft-download/ as well as https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/winnie-starfish-sandcastles-papers-3-download/

I put Glitter glue on her balloon as well as the icing on the cupcakes.  And surrounded her in little flowers to complete her look. Be sure to check out the rest of the line in the Winnie Celebrations 1 lineup. They're all so adorable. https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/brands/Winnie-Celebrations-1.html

Let's see what you can create. Have fun with Winnie.


Wow - beautiful projects this week!

So let's get to today's challenge...

Our fabulous Design Team are showing you some ideas for a Christmas card this week - we hope you can all get some great inspiration here!


MARZENA - I created a card and a gift tag for this week's challenge. I used the cute Mr & Mrs Claus and coloured it with Copics. I attached the DSP to the side of the card and then I stamped the snowflakes with Galaxy Gold from Brilliance Dew Drop on the left side and the trees in lush green behind the Mr & Mrs Claus stamp set.
Underneath I stamped the lettering in black directly onto the card. I printed out and plotted the poinsettia. I glued the second one on top as a 3D effect.

I had leftover paper from the card. I cut it to size and attached it to
the tag which I cut using this dieI coloured this adorable Noel Mouse with Copics. I think she is so cute. I have the saying from the Winter Flurries stamp set stamped on a small stripe and I also got the Christmas greenery from the set: Winnie Winterland Foliage.

Anita - Our theme was a Christmas image and I saw this darling deer set, Winter Deer  - Octavia Frosted Winter, I knew I wanted to create a sparkly winter scene. The set is printed twice, resized and flipped to create a scene of 4 deer. The Peace and Joy sentiment comes from the free digitals offers. An ink blended night sky, watercolored deer and some sparkle with Glitter Glaze creates a beautiful Christmas card. 


Annette (Netty's Cards) - I'm still building my stash of festive cards with this Chrismas Cracker shaped card featuring Bella Delivering Gifts. The papers are from Eden Paper Heaven 2 and Lily Bug Love Paper Heaven 3, both coloured blue in MSWord. As usual, my image is watercoloured using Ranger Distress Ink Reinkers. The cracker shape is a standard A6 cardbase, with 'V' cutouts either side of the top and bottom, and die cut edges at both ends.

Rose - Hello friends in blogland - how are you all doing? Glad that you can join us all in our challenge. Today I am sharing my new slimline card for which I am using Waddy Penguin Christmas Tree together Wanda Penguin Hanging Bunting. Using digital designer paper Winnie Winterland - Paper Heaven 2 & Winnie Winterland - Paper Heaven 4 . Love the cute image and this card adds to my collections. Read more on my blog. Have a great crafty day. 

Myriam - It’s Christmas in July! I have already started making Christmas cards so that I have a head start before the busy December period. I have printed the precoloured stamp Happy Snowman Couple four times and built the image up in 3D with foam pads. The Winnie Christmas Wishes Papers fit perfectly with the image, just as the sentiment from Winnie White Christmas Festive Word Art.

Maritza - Hello my crafty friends, Christmas in July! Christmas is our theme for this week. I made a card with digital image Santa's Suiti of collection Winnie North Pole, and digital papers and embellishments are digital collection Winnie Winterland 


Maz - Christmas in July - I could be doing with some snow right now - the heat in the UK is unbearable! For my Christmas project, I used a variety of Christmas stamp sets for this winter scene. The trees and houses are from Holly Blessing stamp set and Christmas Scene stamp set (no longer available) The Peace & Love text images are from Heartfelt Joy stamp set. I stencilled the background trees using Christmas Tree Layering Stencil . The cute little snowman is from the Snowball Kisses stamp set. More details can be found on my blog.


Roberta - To make it I used two different digitals: Noel Christmas Mouse and Bauble wishes - Twiggy & Toots. I cut out two shapes of tags using Printable Papers 3 - Winnie White Christmas and I glued it on green bazzil by cutting out the tag template.



Wow - incredible festive projects this week!

So let's get to today's challenge...

Our fabulous Design Team are showing you some ideas for a slimline card this week - we hope you can all get some great inspiration here!

 Jane  I have a tall, shaped card for the challenge today using pre-coloured images, paper and sentiment from the WINNIE STARFISH & SANDCASTLES download. I took all the images into Word, resized and overlapped them and then adhered to a card blank and cut it out.  Simple really!

Candace - For today's challenge project, the theme is slimline card, use any product and make a slimline card. I used Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles Paper for the background of my slimline card.  I used the image Winnie Mermaid, copic colored her up and pop dotted to the center. The sentiment is from Winnie Mermaid Quotes.

Madison - For the slimline card challenge today I have used the cute Winnie celebration stamp. She is flying up the card which has been backed with the butterfly papers from the Winnie Fruit Papers. I have added the Good Luck sentiment to make is a lovely inspirational card. 

Sam - For my Slimline card  I wanted to use some of those cute images from the Too Cute range...there were sooo many to choose from so I went with the ones that could fly: Too Cute Owl Love and Too Cute Heart Basket.  I found the sentiment in the Winnie Celebrations Sentiments 3 and the paper in the Horace & Boo Paper Heaven 3 pack.  Happy Crafting!
LEE...Happy Summer! I know I'm enjoying the beautiful weather and rainy afternoons on my mountain! So I thought a fun, colorful card was a perfect fit!  I made a slimline card - 3.5" x 7" - and used the absolutely adorable Spring Showers and this fabulous Bright and Beautiful paper! The Poseydoodles Basic Oval dies and Poseydoodles Basic Tag dies were such a perfect fit. Add a touch of bling with the Lilac Doodle Dewdrops! I hope you all have a creative week!

KIM STEWART

LEE...Happy ChoosDay everyone!! I have a cheery rainbowy card today! This sweet little Bella Bear Bouquet wanted to share a smile and some rainbow vibes! She's perfect along with the Rainbow Papers downloadable bundle and downloadable Winnie Sunshine Embellishments! The little Birdie wooden button and Rainbow/Unicorn themed button just topped off the cuteness!  I hope you get some crafty time and play along with us this week!

LAURA...I thought it would be fun to give my slimline card a hand drawn postcard feel.  The background was made using papers from Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles papers 10.  I positioned the Winnie Ice-cream Camera/Selfie digi stamp so that Winnie could take a photo of her and her friend Relaxing on her Sunlounger.  The scene was built using a sentiment and lots of Embellie stamps from the VIP XXL Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles bundle.  Once my colouring was complete, I traced over the whole image with a fine liner to add the sketchy feel. 

KIMHappy almost to the weekend!  For today's challenge of "use an image with flowers" I chose to make a Slimline card(my first one) using the wonderful and ever so sweet Winnie from the Celebrations line - such a cutie to colour up with my Copics. I paired Winnie with digi papers from https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/winnie-celebrations-3-papers-2-digital-download/as well as https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/winnie-celebrations-3-papers-1-digital-download/ . As a final touch i added little aurora borealis crystals around Winnie since she always shines bright.

Wow - incredible projects this week!
