Polkadoodles Challenge Week 37 - One For The Boys

Another challenge entry (I find they really help to get my crafting mojo back in gear!!!).

And another favourite company of mine - this time Polkadoodles - I just love their work - its so distinctive and cute.

So for this challenge you had to create something for the boys.

I have a long list of things I want to make for Christmas Presents for the people in my life this year and so I decided to take a peep at this list and see if I could combine this challenge with my Christmas List. On my list I had decided to make a Door Hanger for my little boy, Daniel (as I made his sister one last year), so there the idea was born.

I used the Pretty Tuff CD - found here and also a chipboard door hanger bought from Craftwork Cards. The papers used to cover the hanger and make the star were also from the CD.

Then as a finishing touch I inked the edges of both the hanger and the star with a dark brown ink, added twine and buttons and there you have it.

I think Daniel will love it as football is definitely his new love xx

Hope you like it too xxx

Pollycraft Challenge 7 again !!!!

Hi all,

Well I just told you how I loved the Pollycraft Challenge 7 - Autum Colours didn't I? You can find it here. Well I loved it so much I couldn't stop at one creation so I made a second card - this time for the boys.

 

Again this card was made using just some of the bits in my ever-growing scrapbox.

Hope you like it - think I might have been thinking about Monsters University at the time - this little chap reminds me of a certain character ......

Pollycraft are Back - Yipeeeeee!!!!

Well so sorry it's been so long since posting but I have been super duper busy with the craft room tidy - you will be pleased to know that I am almost there and I now have my floor back!!! I also have a place for almost everything and can find whatever I need really quickly and easily. As thought I came across lots of forgotton treasures which will no doubt be shared with you all very soon.

Photos will be shared soon (once either camera has some charge in it!!!!).

However on the subject of forgotton treasures I am so pleased that Pollycraft is back and running with not only their online shop but also their challenges.

Now those of you who have followed this blog for some time will know that Pollycraft is amongst my favourite stores so I had to take part in their latest challenge Harvest Colours - you can find it here.

Even better is that for every challenge you enter using a Pollycraft image 30p will be added to your account to spend on digi images. You can either use it straight away or save them up to get an image for FREE - now I like free xx See the details here

So here is my entry:-

I love this digi stamp and I really enjoyed this challenge. I also set myself the task of trying to use up my mountain of scraps so apart from the card blank itself and the digi image this card is made entirely from the contents of my scrap box.

I think it looks great - I might even send it to myself as it's my birthday on Wednesday xxx
