Pergola Card - Polkadoodles Crafting

Happy Saturday to you all
I have had tons of fun in my craft room this week 
and today I am so happy to share my pergola card with you.
I cut this out on my portrait using the lovely file from Sandra that you can find in the store right here, This is the second Pergola card I've made in a few weeks, so easy but lots of fun.
Can you belive this lays almost flat for posting?
I used the fanastic Winnie in Wonderland to decorate

I also used the following scrummy dies
I have found myself right back into die cutting of late

To add detail at the end I used 
and
Pearl Red around the card 
 I love using these, so easy to use and totally affordable, I have all the lovely colours.

Winnie in Wonderland - Polkadoodles Crafting

Happy Monday from the South West where it's soooooo cold - Mr frost certaintly had his hat on today
Last week I took a break from Christmas Crafting and had another play with
 It's surprising how much I miss first time round on these collections I love to re-visit.

Sandra has also recently brought out a new card file Bow/Bend I just had to try it, You can find it right here. I adore the card shape and there is a little easel for it to stand - and lovely folds flat for posting!
I cut mine on my portrait , but there easy enough to cut by hand if you do not own a cutting machine

I loved the shape it was so much fun to work with 
Recently the lovely Nikky from Polkadoodles has brought out a brand new range of dies that I have also been playing with 
Check them all out here
I used some lovely White Hopsack card from Papermill Direct for my base
covered with lovely paper from Winnie Wonderland , adding in a few characters and decoupaged them for added dimension. I added lots of fun emblies from the kit 
I used the Ribbon Gift Frame Die to edge around the bottom (loved the effect)
I have also used 

Flowers 1 and Flowers 2 (adore these they really do make fantastic flowers )added a little sequin 
to each

 I added in a Super sprig  (so versatile I could not begin to explain the uses)

And finally I used the Cherry Blossom die - (totally adorable)

Let it Snow-Well I Never - Simply Cards & Papercraft

Yepidoodle this time last week was that time of the month , 
the time I start stalking my postie for my delivery of *Simply Cards & Papercraft Magazine*
I adore reading it from front to back, skipping through first off, stroking the freebies and then later a nice long read through
However this month things did not go to plan, I was skipping through and when I got to the readers page , I thought ohhh I made a card very similar to that, rubbed my eyes, looked again that was my card !! Star Letter Ohhhh Wowser I was absolutly chuffed to bits 
You can see my original post here
I then had to tell everyone that would listen

Now I love all the freebies that we get but this month's Let it Snow absolutly lush
What did we get ?
The most stunning embossing folder (6 x 4)
The most beautiful snowflake die
A stamp set containing 6 stamps
Now I described last months free gift Santa Claus is Coming to Town as pure magical, could I do it again and use the same description? You bet I could, these adorable little snowflakes, the most beautiful sentiments, If you have not seen the magazine this is a must have.
Soooooo after all the excitement, what did I make?
I decided on a Christmas tag, (I enjoyed making it so much I ended up making three)
I used Memento inks throughout for my stamping and Distress inks for the edges
Main Snowflake cut in coordinating card
Finished them all with some matching ribbons and little gems.
Inks - Toffee Crunch & Black Soot
Inks - Toffee Crunch & Tumble Glass


Inks - Toffee Crunch, Angel Pink & Spun Sugar

Scatty's Top Tip
Before I finish today's post please do not think Snowflakes are just for Christmas , just take a look at the negative from the die! How pretty is that , it would look fab as a mask simply used with some Brusho's or similar - I can see lots of ideas
