She is beautiful and a dream to colour up

I coloured using Graph'It markers and Polychromos finishing of with a white marker

The paper used is from the 
Holly Jolly Paper pad 
The Setiment, Hearts, Snowflakes and Stocking are from the
download kit
just love how it all works together
Finished off with a sprinkling of glitter and some fun tiny snowballs

Winnie White Christmas

Woooohooooo Super excited to share my post 

Using the wonderful new release from Polkadoodles

Winnie White Christmas

There really is so much lushness

It took me so long to decide which to use first

but decided on a shadow box

I cut the box on my portrait

I really did have so much fun decorating it up 

I used lots of elements from the brand new exciting USB

that you can find here

Thank you for looking

Peggy The Whale

Oh what fun did Felicity and I have making this

and we have named it

Peg-gy the Whale

It's for the Polkadoodles weekly game on Facebook

If you want to win a prize make sure to join in here

To make our game we started of by painting a clothes peg , we painted it blue for the sea, and left it to dry . We then gathered our Polkadoodles stamps

We used

A few from the different collections that you can find here

The Whale and the Fish etc (coloured with Polychromo pencils)

But...... here is the fun part ~ The whale has just had her lunch but what has she eaten ..... its another one of the stamps  hmmmm could it be a crab? maybe a fish? Starfish? or maybe something completly different ~ study those stamps and take a guess,( you can guess as many times as you wish but make sure it's on the Facebook page here)

Once the peg is open the answer is revealed.

We finished of using a little netting from our tangerines and a little sparkle of glitter

Edit with the answer

EEEkkkk exciting news ~ Crafty Ribbons

So Super Excited to say.......

I am now part of the Crafty Ribbons DT

I have always loved Ali's lovely Ribbons and a few years back made various ribbon samples for shows etc ,so it was an honour to become part of the team.
The only problem I can see is what ribbons to choose for my upcoming projects, Oh My drool, drool there are so many to choose from, I have so many ideas I had to start my own notebook.

I have my Granddaughter staying (again) for a few weeks , we just love crafting together, so I let her choose what we should make. We made this on Tuesday after a visit on Monday to the safari park where she had spotted Reindeers so this was quite an apt make.
Using a couple of files from SIL store I cut out the bag and the gift card holder and Felicity glued them together. We added some googly eyes . Felicity made two little red bows and stuck them on , and then adhered the little golden bells.
I attached the ribbon bag handle.

 Once the holly was stuck on I gave it a shine of glossy accents.

And this is the lushness we used from Crafty Ribbons
Bows - 7mm Country check
Bag strap and Gift card holder strip - Christmas Owl Ribbon
Button - Basics 2 Go Buttons

Polkadoodles Crafting Challenge

Happy Friday Everyone!

Here today for 

Polkadoodles Challenge

*Anything Goes*

For my project this week I have mainly used the lovely collection 
Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles
I have made a Pocket page mini album which was cut on my portrait.
I loved using all the delish papers
this really was a labour of Love but so much fun

All the tags were coloured using Polychromo Pencils

Mounted onto cardstock

and then attached different coloured Organza Swiss dots ribbons ~ you can find these here, from Crafty Ribbons

The inside contains more pictures from the collection along with some quotes

(see more in the moving pictures below)

I finished off adding   a charm and some shells

For the seaweed on the front I used the fantastic Cherry blossom die

Thank you for looking

Starfish & Sandcastles by Felicity

I really wanted to share with you this game that Felicity made

She made it at one of her summer craft classes but as soon as she was home reconstructed it.

Felicity made the background colured with pencils

and used the Polkadoodles collection

Starfish  and Sandcastles

for the creatures ( I cut these out for her)

Felicity coloured these 

and added randomn numbers to the back of each one

As we wanted the game to last I laminated them (optional)

and then she popped a paper clip on each one so they become magnetic

Using her rod she had made at class

all thats needed here is wood, string and a small magnet

The game was complete

Simply pop them behind the background so no one can see them

dangle your rod and fish away

You could vary the game -i.e the highest number wins

letters on the back - spell something

My little Grandson visited on Sunday he loved playing 

Thank you for looking

P.s ignore the numbers on the front I have added those as I am using this for our Polkadoodles weekly game on facebook - why not pop over and join us you could win a prize xx
