Good morning everyone! I hope your day is off to a great start. If it's not, it CAN be - it's Choosday over at Polkadoodles! That means a new Digi Choosday challenge, and a new DISCOUNT CODE for the Polkadoodles shop! Head over to the blog to grab it before your shopping spree!
Today's challenge is, as always, Anything Goes! This week the DT has focused on the theme of "vintage". I enjoy making vintage cards, because the theme can be interpreted in so many ways! To me, it says soft, muted colors, flowers, ephemera, doilies & lace. So I've gone with many of those elements today, and I love how my project turned out!
Starring in today's vintage-themed card is Miss Helga Hippo - Flower Girl! I have used the black & white version, and hand-colored her with Copics. I added in lots of elements found in the Helga Hippo Big Kahuna Download bundle, including paper from Paper Heaven 4, Design Sheet Duo 13, along with a sentiment from the Helga Hippo Sentiment bundle. It's a Helga kinda day! I included the individual links, but seriously, just grab the big bundle. It's an amazing deal, "big" is truly an understatement. There is SO much packed in there: gorgeous coordinating papers, toppers, elements, sentiments, color images...plus all the black & white line art too, if you love to color! Oh, and of course, you get your Choosday discount today!
Isn't she lovely? I had such fun choosing some fun vintage spring colors, and bringing her to life! I've used flowers from Prima, and K&Co., some twine from FSJ, lots of foam tape for extra pop, and added some Diamond Stickles to the hem of her dress.
That's it for my project details! Don't forget to head over to the blog to grab today's discount code! Then shop your heart out. Choosday is the best day!
