Polkadoodles - Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime

Hi there!

Here is my design team card for Polkadoodles  Digi choosday 

I used Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime DESIGN SHEET 1 and fussy cut lots of different elements. I mounted the main image onto a white scalloped circle.

Polkadoodles Lilac Haze watercolour flowers

Hi there!

I am excited to share my second design team card for Polkadoodles Digi Choosday challenge:

I used Polkadoodles Lilac Haze watercolour flowers  download and printed it 3 times so that I could fussy cut the flowers to add layers. I added some yellow glitter glue to the centres and layered them onto purple card. The background paper comes with the download as well as 6 other pretty papers. The flower image that I used is pre coloured but there is also a black and white image if you wish to colour it yourself. The sentiment is Spring Flower Mothers Day Friends greetings sentiments which I fussy cut and layered. The 'Mum' sentiment is from Mother's Day messages sentiments - again fussy cut and layered. The beautiful tag which I just had to buy after seeing Nikky on Hobbymaker TV channel is called Ribbon tag heart dies which I mounted and fussy cut onto purple card. Finally I added a Pretty Flower Flourish die  with a brad for the centre and used my sewing machine to stitch around the edges of the card.
