Greetings to all my blogging friends and team members. Sorry I've been MIA. Wish I could say that I have been on a fabulous vacation. Instead, I have been recuperating from bunion surgery, making it hard to craft when you have to take it easy and keep your foot elevated. I am glad to report that I'm back to crafting just in time for release day at Doodle Pantry!
For today's DP release, I got to play with the adorable new set, Poodles of Fun. This set comes with both outline and colored images, sentiments and digi papers; and the best part is that this set is free with any purchase until Sept. 24. In addition, from August 31 through September 9, there is a special Doodle Pantry sale going on -- take 35% Off your entire cart contents, excluding gift certificates. Click here to get the necessary codes.
The samples above showcase the Poodles of Fun set which I merged with other Doodle Pantry sets.
- For the first card, I combined 2 colored poodles with a sentiment from Forget Me Nots Color Plus and a panel of digi paper from the new Holiday Joy Digi Paper Pack.
- The second card combines the purple poodle with a party hat and balloon from Birthday Accessories Color Plus and a panel of digi paper that is included with the Poodles of Fun set. The sentiment is from Balloon Ants Color Plus.
- The pink poodle in the top row is dressed up with a daisy hat and sentiment from Floral Hats Color Plus. The dotted digi paper is from Balloon Ants Color Plus.
- First card in the next row combines a party hat, gift box and sentiment from Birthday Accessories Color Plus. I paper pieced the gift box and party hat digitally and also altered the color of the hat to match. Digil paper used is also included with the Poodles of Fun set.
- Next, I merged a pink poodle on top of a row of flowers from Spring Song Birdies Color Plus. Sentiment is from Forget Me Nots Color Plus.
- The last card has a purple poodle dressed up for winter with the help of Winter Accessories Color Plus. Sentiment is also from Winter Accessories Color Plus. Digi paper is from the new Holiday Joy Digi Paper Pack.
As you can tell, I love to mix and match sets -- something that is easy, fun, and helps stretch your crafting dollars. Laurie's Doodle Pantry sets make 'mixing and matching' a snap to do. I highly recommend you give it a try!
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful holiday weekend!
