QUICK CUTE AND SIMPLE birthday card with no effort DT #polkadoodles

Happy Monday!

Hi all, I hope you have a great day! It's Monika with a super cute birthday card. For my project, I used the most adorable digi stamp Earlie Hedgehog Dandelion from Polkadoodles and I coloured her in using alcohol markers. To create the background, I used two digi papers from Winnie Wonderland Paper Heaven 5 (my favourite). I encourage you to use different parts of the digi papers, cut them into elements and embellish your card.
What's your favourite spring animal?

Unique Heart Shutter Card for Valentine's Day using LOVE ALWAYS collection DT #polkadoodles

Happy Monday!

Hi all you crafters! It's Monika here with another Valentine's card project for Polkadoodles. Today, I created a heart shaped shutter card and I used the most adorable digi stamps from Love Always collection. I coloured them in with alcohol markers and to make this Valentine's card special, I stayed with the blue colour, which is not traditional, however I think that's what makes that card even more special. For the background elements I used Just Lovely - Honeypie design papers. Have you ever created a shutter card? 

Happy crafting!

How To Make Art Deco Style Shaped Card with NO DIES #relativelythoughtful

Happy Saturday!
Hi all crafters! 

It's Monika with another Art Deco shaped card. I absolutely love the 'Art Deco 1920's style' collection, and this time I challenged myself and I decided to use darker colours. I have to admit that when you match them with gold, the combo is fabulous. So I encourage you to play with some darker pattern papers because you will be very pleased with the result.

Happy crafting!

Art Deco style birthday card with NO DIES Art Deco 1920's style #relativelythoughtful

Happy Thursday!
I hope you have a great day!

Hi all crafters! Today, I have a shaped birthday card I created with no cutting dies. When I look at the 'Art Deco 1920's' collection from Relatively thoughtful I just have to play with the patterns and symmetry. This time, I used some shapes to make this card even more special. When you work with Art Deco style, gold and black are essential, that's why I added them here. 

Do you like Art Deco style?

Happy Monday!
I hope you have a great day!

Today, I have a very special personalised card. A friend of mine PaperMona recently reached 5000 subscribers on her YouTube channel and I made a card to celebrate this achievement. I used a free gift from Creative Stamping magazine issue 118 'Wings & Things'. It is a stunning stamp set collection, perfect to immerse yourself into the world of colouring. The floral butterfly is just perfect and I had to use it for the focal element on my card.

Do you like colouring stamped images?

Diamond Stepper Card - The Great Gatsby collection #relativelythoughtful

Happy Thursday!

I hope you have a fabulous day!

Hi, all crafters, it's Monika with another inspiration using 'The Great Gatsby' collection.

I created a diamond stepper card using the design papers and elements from this gorgeous collection. As this set has Art Deco vibes, I just had to use geometric shapes to make sure that they are the main focal element of the design. Using symmetry and straight lines allows you to create unusual designs, and I encourage you to have a play with this fabulous collection.

Happy crafting!
