Meet Polka Dot Orchard IG Hop!

 Welcome to the "Meet Polka Dot Orchard" IG Hop. If you're new to Polka Dot Orchard, let the Creative Team introduce you with wonderful projects using digital sets available at the Polka Dot Orchard Shop.

My first card today is from a digital set called Thank Goodness for Octobers.

I printed the large background digital stamp on regular cardstock and colored in using several different colors of marker to create a monotone background. The sentiment is also from this set. I added a piece of diagonal stripe accent paper and backed it all with a piece of kraft. The added jewels are from Pinkfresh studio. The beauty of digital images, they can be resized to any size you need!

Second card is from the set called Finding a Purpose. 

I printed the digital image on regular cardstock and again on watercolor paper. The cardstock panel was cut to A2 card size and ink smooshed with some distress inks and oxides. I colored the watercolor pumpkins with my tombow ABT markers. After they were colored, I fussy cut them out, then carefully glued them onto the ink smooshed panel directly on top of the printed image. The sentiment which also came with the set was printed on some kraft paper and then cut with a die from Sizzix thinlits called stacked deckle. Folded the image over the top, secured it with glue, then added some brads and natural twine for added interest.
