Gnome Hello

"Something to Say" is the theme for our new challenge at Creative Knockouts!

We have a fabulous sponsor so make sure to upload your creation for your chance to win a special prize from Polkadoodles!


I created this card using the Polkadoodles image Spring Flowers Gnome.  I colored the image with Copic markers then had the task of fussy cutting (groan).  The image comes with an SVG file but I wasn't at home at the time of making so didn't have use of my Cricut.  

The Hello was stamped in Versamark and heated with white emobssing powder.  The set is How to Say Hello by MFT (no longer available). I added foam squares to the gnome and bee before affixing to the card base.  I would like to add a few more bees and will probably do so once I'm back at home.

Make sure you check out the amazingly creative creations from or Design Team then it's your turn to start creating!

XOXO Polar Bear

Christmas [or not] Bingo Challenges has a new challenge ready to go for you!

CBC will feature a new Bingo card for each challenge and while this isn't your typical game of BINGO, you are required to use at least three items in ONE column.

We are a "just for fun" challenge where you will have the chance to proudly display our Winner or Top Pick Badge!

My choice is the Column G: Valentine, red, free, gems, die-cuts


To create this card I used Love Hearts embossing folder by Bringing Crafts-Too you and XOXO die cut to create the background.  The polar bear is from the Polar Bear Pals stamp set by MFT, colored with Copic markers.  The gems were placed using the Imaginisce iRock tool.

So glad you stopped by and I look forward to seeing your creation!
