Polkadoodles Gnomes are full of Heart- I'm Here Gnome Matter What

One of my favorite GNOMES from Polkadoodles is making his debut!  This is the "GNOME Matter What" clear polymer stamp and he's adorable!

From his mushroom mailbox to his floppy hat & bird, he's bound to give you a smile!  Colored in copics, I used some Fall colors for the image and added some "mountain" hills in his background-for that I used PD Cloudy Landscape Stencil PD8011.  You could use this for clouds, hills, snowy hills-lots of possibilities. 

The copics that I used are:

Browns: E11, E13, E31-33-34-35-37-30, E04

Shadows: W0-1-3-5, T3-5

Oranges: YR31, YR04-14-16-18, Y17

Greens: YG91-93-95, YG63, G43-46

Blues: B00-01, B52, B45

Pinks: RV10, R46, R81

On the inside, I used my go to Fall PD paper packs called "In Love with Autumn" and stamped the polymer envelope that comes with the stamp set across the paper--like it was floating in the breeze.
Thanks for looking at my design projects! 

You're GNOME-azing from POLKADOODLES- Adorable

I'm sure that you Crafty Folks LOVE Gnomes the same as I do!  Think it's just that Huge nose and full beards that just gives me a chuckle!  I'm thrilled to use my first Gnome from Polkadoodles called "Your Gnome-azing".  She's in her garden which is just where I like to be.  I used a combination of soft and deep colors on her, adding a "woven" look to her hat.  In addition, I used one of Polkadoodles many metal dies called Flower Flourish.  This die comes with solid as well as a filigree cut, so 6 flower sizes and shapes-very versatile.  I finished my flowers with buttons in the centers. After I aged the image with light brown ink, I matted it with blue cardstock and mounted it to one of the many paper packs found at PD!  This pack is called "Soft & Scrumptious" and IS Gorgeous.
There are so many crafting supplies at this great site, please check them out!  I think I have more GNOMES in my future.  They have a six new characters out right now and more to come.

Craft Your Passion ~Always anything Goes ~Sponsored by Julia Spiri

 During the next 2 weeks at Craft Your Passion, we will be having an Always Anything Goes challenge as usual!  And we are being sponsored by Stamps by Julia Spiri- and I couldn't be more thrilled!

SO thrilled I asked to use 2 of her images, cause I couldn't make up my mind!  First up is one called Little Gnome.  Would you just look at those gorgeous eyes!!!  I just picture her out in a forest with lots of greenery and creatures.  To make it even more fun, I turned the image into a BOBBLE Card!  It's hard to catch the action but I tried!  Just puts a smile on my face. I used 3 different fishtail banners on the side and stamped a sentiment at the bottom of the card about friendship.  On the inside, I repeated the yellow mini dot paper with a curved cardstock accent.
