Winnie Lovely Boquet - Polkadoodles Craft Challenge Week 11

 Hello friends!  The Polkadoodles Anything Goes Craft Challenge has moved to Saturdays, and I am so excited to share my project for this week's challenge.  The Design Team was asked to create some Mother's Day Inspiration using a sketch.  

I had a ton of fun creating this fancy fold (I have no idea what kind of fold it is) card.  I have to be honest with you, though.  When I selected my digital stamp for this project, I accidentally purchased the pre-colored image, rather than the black and white.  At first, I panicked, but I decided to try something different and use the pre-colored image, rather than the black and white.  Oh, my goodness!  What a great way to speed up the creative process.  

I struggled a bit with this sketch, but when it finally came together, I was thrilled with the results! 

For my card, I used the pre-colored Winnie Lovely Boquet digital stamp.  I started with a card base of 5 1/2" x 11" and I scored the card at 2 3/4" and 8 1/4" and folded the flaps in to the center.  I layered several of the beautiful digital papers from the Eden Collection to the front card flaps.  I adhered a panel to the left side (ONLY) of the card base.  Make sure not to adhere to the right side or your card won't open (don't ask me how I know this!  😁).  I then decorated the front panel by adding the pre-colored digi, some flowers and a bow.  Lastly, I added my embossed sentiments, again careful not to adhere them down to the card base. 

While this card was not quick and easy to make, using the pre-colored digi saved a good bit of time, and was a fun change of pace! 

I hope that you will join us for this week's challenge!  We have some fun prizes up for grabs, and literally ANYTHING crafty that you are working on is perfect for an entry! 

Thanks for popping by!  

XOXO, Kim
