Polkadoodles Crafts Winnie Wednesday Witch and Cat | Copic Colouring | Digi Choosday Blog

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from Polkadoodles Craft

There is a new Challenge over on the Digi Choosday Blog. Anything goes for you guys... DT was given the challenge of Halloween! In Australia, we don't go a lot of Halloween, I think others do more.

I picked the Winnie Wednesday image, I just loved her. I coloured Winnie with Copics and I was a little stuck on what colour to do the sage green dress under her cloak. For the first time ever I used Chat GPT to suggest what colour I should use. I think it did a pretty good.

 


Card Size Aus A6 which is 10.5 x 14.9cm (4 1/8 x 5 7/8) 
Feature Panel Size 8.7 x 13cm (3 3/4 x 1/8) 
Matt 9.7 x 13.9cm (3 7/8 x 5 1/2) 
 
The sentiment was from the Halloween Trick or Treat Word Art. I coloured the words then applied glossy accents and then cut it all out ( Yes while still wet...cos I like to live on the edge!! ;) ) 
 
I kept the card pretty simple and just used some Stitched Rectangles to make up my background. I coloured the pearls with V17 so they blended perfectly with the rest of the design. 
 
Product List Below

Copics Used
Skin - E04, E11, E01 and E000

Polkadoodles Craft Digi Choosday Bee Cute | Coloured with Copics add Vellum

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from Polkadoodles Crafts. Digi Choosday has a new challenge again. This time the design team was given the challenge to use vellum or Acetate. I thought it would be cute to give the Bee and gnome some vellum wings.


 

Card Size Aus A6 which is 10.5 x 14.9cm (4 1/8 x 5 7/8) 
Feature Panel Size 9.7 x 14.1cm (3 9/16 x 5 5/16) 


I chose not to use a sentiment for this card. I didn't think it needed it and it means you can use it for different events.
 
For the wings I traced the outline of each wing, so they each had 4 wings, and cut it out leaving an extra long end so I can adhere it to the back of the image. Made a slit the length of the wings and slipped the vellum through. A mutli liner pen over the vellum finishes off the hair and gives the impression some of the hair being in front of the wings. Finish with some stardust Stickles over the wings.
Behind the vellum the wings are slightly coloured with BV01 and BG11 
 
Product List Below 
Vellum  
Stardust Stickles
 
Copics Used
Blue Green - BG49, Bg13 and BG11
Yellow - YR16, Y38, Y35 and Y21
Green - YG67, YG17 and YG03
Black - 110, C9, C6 and C4
Skin - E04, E11, E01 and E000
Flowers - BV04, BV02 and BV01
Blue - B37, B34 and B32

Polkadoodles Craft Party Time! | Copic Colouring | Circle Card

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from Polkadoodles Craft. A new blog post is available on the Digi Choosday Challenge Blog. Your theme is anything goes but the design team get a challenge, which means you get some awesome ideas for different themes. Our theme this week is "Not a Square or Rectangle card"


Card Size 13.2cm diameter (5 1/4") 
Feature Panel Size 8.4cm diameter (3 1/4")
Matt 12.5cm (4 7/8") 
 
Using your circle die and a square card base, cut out your shape. The die will do thru both layers. However you need to make sure you leave some of the fold line, so you need to have the die fall off the edge of the card base so you still have the join. I only have about 3 cm of the fold left.
 
Die Cut another circle to adhere to the front of the card base, this will hide the fold line and make it a full circle again.
 
The other thing you have to do, otherwise your card won't stand up, is to cut a tiny bit off the bottom of the card on the back of the card base. I have cut off about 1/2cm . You need to do this for any design that isn't straight.


 Decorate as you please.

Product List Below 

Nesting Circles - Mine are really old and I have no idea where they are from but there are plenty out there.
 
Distress Inks
Stormy Sky
Dusty Concord
Worn Lipstick
 
White Gel Pen
 
Copics Used
Chocolate - E29, E27, E25 and E23
Purple - V17, V15, V12 and V01

Polkadoodles Craft By The Sea | Winnie Starfish | Easel Card | Prismacolor Pencils

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from Polkadoodles Craft. We have a new theme on the Digi Choosday Challenge. This week it is to make an Easel card. I had some ideas on all the different Easel cards you can make but I decided a scene was what I wanted to do so a more traditional easel card fitted it better. 

 


Card Size Aus A6 which is 10.5 x 14.9cm (4 1/8 x 5 7/8) 
Feature Panel Size 9.7 x 14.1cm (3 9/16 x 5 5/16) 
Matt 10 x 14.4cm (3 7/8 x 5 9/16) 
 
I teamed the Winnie Starfish/ Sandcastle- Building Sandcastles with the Beach Scene. I originally thought to include the Surfboard digi but I felt it didn't need it. I really enjoyed colouring the sand and water, it isn't something I do a lot. 
 
  
Product List Below 
 
Glossy Accents
Stardust Stickles
 
Prismacolor Pencils
Sand - Sienna Brown 945, Golden Rod 1034, Sand 940 and Cream 914
Ocean - Cobalt Turquoise 105, Aquamarine 905, Light Aquamarine 992, Light Green 920 and Grey Green Light 289
Leaves - Sepia 948, Dark Green 908, Kelly Green 1096 and Pale Sage 1089
Skin - Dark Brown 946, Sienna Brown 945, Peach 939, Light Peach 927, Eggshell 140 and White 938
Hair - Burnt Ochre 943, Pumpkin Orange 1032, Mineral Orange 1033, Golden Rod 1034 and Yellow Ochre 942
Blue - Indanthrone Blue 208, Denim Blue 1101, True Blue 903 and Non Photo Blue 919
Len of glass and Shovel( minus the brown and blue) - Cool Grey 70% 1065, Cool Grey 50% 1063, Cool Grey 30% 1061, Cool Grey 20% 1060, Sienna Brown 945 and Non Photo Blue 919
White -Cool Grey 50% 1063, Cool Grey 30% 1061 and Cool Grey 20% 1060
Red - Black Raspberry 1095, Crimson Lake 925 and Permanent Red 122
Yellow - Orange 918, Yellowed Orange 1002 and Canary Yellow 916
 
Stampin Up Real Red Cardstock  
 
To make my easel I took a top folding card and scored the front at 7.3 cm or 2 7/8" Then using another card front I mounted the red matt and my image. I applied glue to the back bottom half and added it to the bottom quadrant of the base card, making sure you don't glue past the score line.
 

 I applied a little bit of glossy accents and stardust stickles on random parts of the ocean and glossy accents to the sunglasses.
 
That is all from me today. Thank you for your time.

Polkadoodles Craft Whats The Buzz - Bee Buzzy Gnome Digi Stamp | Fun Fold | Prismacolour Pencils

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from Polkadoodles Craft called What's the Buzz- Bee Buzzy Gnome.

This fortnights' theme is Birthday Card with a Different Fold.


Card Size Aus A6 which is 10.5 x 14.9cm (4 1/8 x 5 7/8) 
Feature Panel Size 6.2 x 9.3cm (2 7/16 x 3 5/8) 
Small Matt 6.8 x 9.8cm ( 2 5/8 x 3 7/8) 
Larger Matt 9.7 x 14.1cm (3 13/16 x 5 9/16) You need 2 of these.
 
This card is super simple. Using a standard card base, cut diagonally from the top left down to the bottom right. You will also do this with one of the larger matt pieces. This will give you an edge once you apply the triangled piece to the flap of the card front. 
 
Take another card base that is folded and you will cut this at 7.3cm or 8 1/4" ( please remember this is based on A4 piece of card. American card bases are different from AUS and I think the UK. Not sure about Europe. AFTER you have applied the second large matt that is not cut into a Triangle (one is a triangle and the other standard Rectangle) you can glue the smaller card onto the "inside" of your base card. Just make sure that it move nicely as you open it. Then decorate it.
