Wishing You a Wonderful Day Easel Card

Hey there!

Today I'm sharing a little inspiration for this month's

Digi Choosday Cardmaking & Crafting Challenge.

The theme, as usual, is

ANYTHING GOES.

I've created a twisted easel card in spring colors using one of my favorite Polkadoodles digis, Primrose from the Darling Buds collection.  She is colored with pencils and fussy cut. I adhered her to some paper doilies with foam tape onto the card front. Silk flowers from my stash and a bow were added.  Pearls were added to the flowers on Primrose.The sentiment acts as the stopper for the easel. It is stamped and die cut. I also added a beaded border.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great rest of the week!

Have a HoHoHomazing Christmas! - Festive Card Inspiration

Today I’m sharing a sweet and festive Christmas card featuring

one of the new Mabel Holiday Printable Bundles from 

Polkadoodles!

Mabel Festive Wishes

I had so much fun bringing this design to life with classic holiday colors,

lots of layering, and a touch of sparkle!
For the background, I used a red-and-green striped paper from the bundle. 

It is matted with green card stock and adhered to red glitter card stock on the card base.

 I then added a scalloped stitched frame in deep green to anchor the focal point.

The star of the card is "Mabel", all dressed up for Christmas in her polka-dot dress, 

cozy boots, and a gorgeous flower crown.

 I colored her in warm, soft tones to match the vintage feel of the paper. 

To complement her floral crown, 

I tucked in a cluster of poinsettias and holly leaves in the upper corner,

 which is pussycat from another of the papers included in the bundle.

—perfect for adding dimension and seasonal charm.

The playful sentiment, “Have a HoHoHomazing Christmas!”, also from the bundle,

ties everything together and adds a fun, cheerful touch.

A few pearls in the upper corner finish the design and add just the right pop of shine.
This card was such a joy to create, and I hope it brings a little extra holiday cheer your way!

Happy crafting! 🎄✨

Witches & Broomsticks

Creepy Things

So, today I'm sharing one of the cards I've created with this line.

I am using Ghost.

Not much coloring to do on this cutie, but I did so with Prismacolor pencils.

I fussy cut and added to a background which is one of the patterned papers from

I printed the paper twice so I could fussy cut some of the flowers and pumpkins

over the background with foam tape for some dimension.

A die cut circle frame was added for a little interest.

I printed the sentiment and trimmed.

It is from the Cute and Creepy Greetings Bundle.
