Polkadoodles Pretty Shutter Window Die Card and Video

Hi everyone!

I've been experimenting with some cosy little room scenes to go with my Polkadoodles Pretty Shutter Window die. I wanted to create the feeling of peeking through a window into a warm, welcoming home, with little details that bring each scene to life.

I had a particular look in mind and enjoyed exploring different layouts and details until I was happy with the results. I think this die has so many possibilities, and I'm looking forward to using it in more of my cardmaking projects.

Here is a little video showing a close up of my card:

Polkadoodles Halloween Cake Toppers

Hi there, crafty friends!

It’s time for another Digi Chooday Challenge, and today’s theme is Halloween Party. 🎃👻

For my project, I decided to make some fun Halloween cake toppers.

I chose to use Fox Ghost, Bear Dracula,  Cute Ghost and Hedgehog Pumpkin, all of which are pre-coloured images, so they were really quick and easy to use. I also added some of the lovely sentiments from the Halloween Trick or Treat Greetings.

After printing and cutting out the images, I used various circle dies to cut them into neat circles. I then attached each one to a cocktail stick and finished them off with a little ribbon.

They would be perfect for adding a fun Halloween touch to cupcakes or a party table! 🧁🎃

I hope you like my Halloween cake toppers, and good luck to everyone who enters the challenge!

as you like it challenge favourite-fabric-embellishment and why? For me it is ribbon because I love how it adds a little texture, colour and a pretty finishing touch to a project. For my Halloween cupcake toppers, the ribbon helped bring the whole design together,

The Gruffies and Happy Hoppers Stepper Card and video!

Good afternoon crafty friends! Something a little different for today - I have a little video to share 📹

a close up

Here is a little video of my Scan N Cut machine cutting out my stepper card sped up slightly.

This machine is so clever that it actually scores and cuts out images! It is brilliant for decoupage images and gets into places that my scissors can't!!

Polkadoodles Santa Snowman gift

Hi crafty friends, it's time for my Digi Chooday design team card and today's theme is Christmas:

For my card, I used the Santa Snowman pre-coloured image and decorated it with Stickles to add a lovely touch of sparkle. I then used the gorgeous Merry Christmas Greetings Circle Wreath Die to frame the image.

I mounted this onto some light blue card which I had embossed using a snow embossing folder, adding a lovely snowy texture to the background.

To finish my card, I added some pretty gems, a Poinsettia die and some corner punches, which completed my festive design.
