Polkadoodles - Anything but Square

The challenge at Polkadoodles at the moment is Anything but Square and the DT were asked to make a shaped card.   I was leaning towards using some of the papers from the Work and play kids on a cupcake card but decided to go with a circular card with a sports theme.   Work and Play 6 has a variety of images and sentiments to play with but I was taken with the soccer ball embellishment.



I traced the soccer ball and the sentiment and cut them both in vinyl.  The vinyl gives the soccer ball a shiny finish just like it would have in real life.   

The digital image is also in the kit but can be purchased seperately too.

My husband is a Chelsea FC fan and there is a rumour that Chelsea may play a friendly game in Australia at the end of May.  All going well I can get some tickets.. fingers crossed.



Be sure to check out the new store site and have a good look around, there is a coupon tab that you should check regularly and also a freebies section
.  I would love to see some creations on the challenge blog using these freebies.
Be sure to look closely and if you pay close attention someone who is on the ball will be rewarded if they have a keen eye for detail ;)

The latest addition to the Polkadoodle kit family is the  Twiggy and Toots collection.



I had a little play with it during the week and created a totally digital card, printed on gloss.   My youngest daughter was sitting looking at it and asking how I made it shine.  If she only knew it was simply printed with the help of beautiful artwork from Polkadoodles.  I will definitely be using the percolated(got to love auto correct )  precoloured images again.  This is all one layered but some of the other DT have used these images like decoupage and they are stunning.
