We have another delightful challenge for you over at Incy Wincy this week...Frame It! You can add a die-cut frame, draw a frame, decorate a frame...anything to do with a frame really :o)

There are two sponsors this week, the first is WOW! - one lucky person can win 6 WOW! Embossing Powders and the second sponsor is Polka Doodles where another lucky person can win £5.00 to spend in the Polka Doodles store!

The Design Team have come up with some fantastic inspiration for you. I chose Oddella Bow and here is my card...

Items needed...

Digital stamp: Oddella Bow - Polka Doodles

Card stock: white

Promarkers: Black, Bright Green, Firebrick*, Ice Grey 1, Ice Grey 2, Ice Grey 3, Ice Grey 4, Ice Grey 5, Lime Green, Sunset*

Fine liner: black

I decided to keep her in shades of grey and just add a splash of colour to her eyes, lips and bow. I doodled the border and added a simple little skull and crossbones in each corner.

Ralph With Hat - Polka Doodles/Incy Wincy

Afternoon peeps!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

A new challenge starts today over at Incy Wincy, the theme is 'something old, something new' (nothing to do with weddings, you need to use a new craft item and an old craft item). 

My 'old' - twine, buttons & markers; my 'new' - patterned paper & die-cut sentiment.

I'm so excited as this will be my first challenge as a DT member with Incy Wincy.

This weeks sponsors are Polka Doodles!

I had great fun coming up with this cute little card...his name is Ralph. I know Ralph is an owl, but with his little hat and scarf and it being for a Christmas card, I thought he would make a perfect little penguin. :o)

What you need... 

Digital image: Ralph with Hat digi stamp - Polka Doodles

Card stock: white

Patterned paper: Let it Snow (12"x12") Be Merry Collection - American Crafts

Die-cut sentiment: Cookies (Bits) Be Merry Collection - American Crafts

Promarkers: Berry Red, Ice Grey 1, Ice Grey 5, Pumpkin

Button: pale aqua

Baker's twine: red

Gems: clear

What you do...

Cover the top of a white 10.5cm x 15cm top fold blank with Let It Snow paper 10.5cm x 12cm.

Wrap red twine around the blank at the edge of the patterned paper, thread through an aqua button at the left side and tie in a bow.

Download, print and colour in Ralph.

Cut out Ralph and attach him to the right just above the twine.

Add a die-cut sentiment centrally to the top of the blank and decorate a few snowflakes with gems.

Isn't he adorable?
