everybody loves a cupcake...

Morning girls

Welcome to the Polka Doodles blog hop.

Today all of us Polka Doodle girls are sharing another fab digi by the lovely Emma Canning.
We've not forgotten the challenge though.  The theme fits in with the image we've used for today

CUPCAKES

...so there's a chance to win some fab Polka Doodles crafty bits as usual plus some of the girls have a little candy on offer too.

The images for the hop have been drawn exclusively by Emma just for us - and for you!  If you like the look of the freebies, why not treat yourself to some more - each image is just £1.25!

As with last week, you MUST use the freebie image, available over on the challenge blog AND complete the hop, leaving a comment at each stop as you go.  

The winner will receive 3 download bundles, the second placed entry will win 2 download bundles, and the third placed entry will win one download bundle.

If you've come from Anjie then you're hoppin' in the right direction.  If not then you'll need to start over on the Polkadoodle Challenge Blog

Here's my take on the theme for this week:)

Hi girls 

This is my second post for the day so please scroll down for a look see at my Totally Papercrafts card too.

This one is for the new challenge over on Polka Doodles and this week we're looking for tags or cards with tags on them.

We're also showcasing some fab new digi's from the lovely Emma Canning also available from the Polka Doodles store.  Why not pop over and have a browse she has some gorgeous new Christmas ones.

.

I thought I go down the tag route this week and have used the lovely Stocking Surprise which I've coloured with copics.  Papers, sentiment and embellishments are from the new Christmas CD.

Excuse the rubbish pic girls.  I couldn't take this one outdoors because of the horrendous weather we've had and to be honest there just doesn't seem to be a decent angle from which to take a pic of a tag.  Not that I've found anyway so all suggestions will be gratefully received.

other ingredients:

snowflake die - Whimsy Stamps

snowflake charm - Inky Impressions

ric rac, ribbon, little snowballs and glitter from me stash

So, do pop over to the challenge blog girls and of course we'd love it if you played along.
