Pollycraft Monday Challenge - Spring has Sprung!

Good Morning Everyone! I hope you have had a lovely weekend and are ready for the week ahead! We have a brand new Challenge for you today on the Pollycraft Challenge blog. This week, the lovely Joey has chosen our theme and she has picked...Spring has Sprung! I found the perfect sentiment on a page of Echo Park papers so had to use the matching papers for my card. 

I used the adorable Cuthbert in the Garden on my card and coloured him in to match the backing papers adding a little glitter glue to the heart on his jumper. I kept the layout simple and added some gorgeous ribbon from the Ribbon Girl and various different flowers. I hope you will be able to join us for this week's Challenge for the chance to win 3 packs of die cuts from The Crimson Cloud.

Make sure you check out the Challenge blog for lots of inspiration from the DT!
Have a great Monday!

A new Pollycraft Challenge and a new release!

I promised you lots more Pollycraft cards and I have two to share with you today. The first one is for this week's Pollycraft Challenge.


For this week's Challenge we are following the lovely Lynsey's fabulous sketch.

I chose to use an image from the new release, Felicity and Friends.


I just love this little Cowgirl image, I need some boots like that!! I printed the image onto textured cardstock and coloured it with Promarkers before cutting it out with my Nesties. The bandana paper was a digital download and I used some more of my favourite gingham. I stitched around all the edges and added an Elzybells sentiment cut out with a Nellie Snellen label die. I added string through the ribbon slots.
To make the flower, I added double sided tape to the back of some webbing and die cut a flower shape with a Sizzix die. I added buttons threaded with string as the flower centres.

Please pop over to the blog for more cards from the DT. We have a fabulous sponsor this week with a fabulous prize.

Gotta Craft are offering 10 new My Mind's Eye So Sophie papers so make sure you join in for a chance of winning!

My second card is made using an image from the other set of images which are being released today.


The Cuthbert and Kiki images are adorable, I just love this little bear! I chose to make a card using Cuthbert holding a lovely juicy strawberry! I had these My Mind's Eye papers and this charm in my stash and they were just a perfect match!


I coloured the image with Promarkers, the ribbon is from my stash and I cut a little Sizzix tag which I stamped with a Hero Arts sentiment to tie on to the ribbon with the charm.
Apologies for the long post but I had lots to share!

I hope you have a lovely Monday!

A Friday Freebie cutie!

Friday is Freebie day on the Tales from Pollycraft blog and Paula has an adorable stamp to share this week.
Cuthbert is such a cutie! He is holding a lovely big bouquet of flower and I couldn't resist teaming him with lots of lovely blooms!

The layout of the card is quite simple as the paper is quite busy, it is from American Crafts and I love the colour combination of yellow and purple. The felt flower ribbon is from Quixotic Paperie and the sentiment is Elzybells.
Make sure you pop over to the Tales from Pollycraft blog to get your own Cuthbert and to see what the lovely DT girlies made, Cuthbert is only available today so make sure you don't miss out! Paula will be releasing lots more Cuthbert images next week, you can have a sneaky peek here if you can't wait :-)
