Let’s Celebrate! + Polkadoodles DT

** 12/3/18 Honorary Mention at Pammie’s Inky Pinkies Challenges! **

Hello, my crafty peeps! Happy Friday and the end of November! Only a few weeks now until the jolly round man comes cruisin’ through on his sleigh! Another fun challenge is live over at Polkadoodles Craft Challenge and I’m happy to share my inspiration project Week 48 – Anything Goes Challenge… as a permanent Polkadoodles Design Team member! Woo-hoo! I’ve been asked if I’d like to join permanently and of course I said yes! I created a fun birthday card with the most adorable Pile of Surprises – Winnie Celebrations 3 image. OMG, she couldn’t be any cuter and the colors couldn’t be any brighter!

I cut the image with a dotted ovals die and layered it on a piece of gorgeous rose-colored Polkadoodles digital paper from the Winnie Winterland – Big Kahuna Digital Craft Download Bundle. I just can’t get over all the papers and elements included in this bundle! I fashioned a bow with some yummy Silky Crush Rose ribbon and gold thread and then layered the background panel on gold mirror cardstock. I added some gold shimmer to the candles flames and then cut the front sentiment into a double fish-tail banner and adhered it on foam tape for a little dimension.

I decorated the inside panel with some of the digital rose-colored paper and a leftover strip of the gold mirror cardstock, and then layered the panel on some pink cardstock. I cut the inside sentiment with a dotted rectangles die and adhered it to the panel. Both the front and inside sentiments are from Winnie Celebrations 3 Sentiments.

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We have 10 feline rescues. I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty lovins! ;)
