Good morning and welcome to The Colour Crazy Challenge blog!

Our weekly challenge theme is always Anything Goes

Please note, we are a colouring challenge and therefore you must display some colouring on your project - I'm sorry but we don't accept pre-coloured images.

This week our sponsor is Moonflower who will be offering a $10 gift certificate to spend in their store!

Remember you need to claim your prize within 2 weeks as per the rules in the sidebar. Also please allow a few weeks for the sponsor to get back to you with any prizes. I'm sure you can appreciate that they are very busy.

Also don't forget we are also always looking for people to guest spot on our DT. So if you would like to be considered as a GDT, after your name on your entry add the letters GDT.

So let's get onto to what the team have made this week.  

Christine:  I chose to use the beautiful  Lilly Ice Skating image from Moonflower,   as usual coloured with my Copics. She’s a lovely image to colour! I used the Copics to create an icy lake for her to skate on with snowy banks and die cut pine trees, I added Wink of Stella to the ‘ice’ and some white Frantage to the sky. Lilly was fussy cut and placed on top. I placed the little scene in a glittery die cut frame, matted onto a large ‘all over’ snowflake diecut (unsure of the make). The glittery die cut skates and  stamped sentiment are attached with a snowflake brad.

Ruth:  I picked this cute image - Gigi Little Mermaid and coloured her up with Promarkers plus a little bit of glitter here and there.  The background frame has been cut by the Bubblicious frame from Polkadoodles and I found a random bit of card in my stash which matched the colours!

Hello.. Billie A here with my card. The image is called Lilly ice skating.  I colored the image with Copics.  I then used my cloud template and then drew in with Copics an iced pond that she is skating on. I added some Spectrum Noir sparkle pen to her skate blades and the ice. The sentiment is from Paper Trey Ink.  I finished by adding some sequins. I thought they looked like snow.

Jane - Hi all! I have also used the gorgeous Lilly Ice Skating and created a scene for her with a stencil, texture paste, glitter and ink. I coloured Lilly with Copics and all details are on my blog.

Hi Shell, here with my latest make. I just love this fabulous mermaid. I have coloured her with Promarkers & Faber-Castell pencils. On the backing paper I have added foil to give it a shine, but no matter which way I took my photos you can't see it. I added some die cut seaweed and flowers. Finishing it off with a sentiment....all detail are on my blog The Camels Hump x

Hi! Hanna here. I've also used this lovely mermaid by MoonFlower called Gigi Little Mermaid. I've coloured her with Distress Inks. I thought the image was perfect on a shaker card. The papers are some old ones from DCWV called Once Upon a Time. Very suitable for the image don't you think? :)

Hi! Lou here. I am Guest DT for August through to October and so this is my first card! I've also used the cute Gigi Little Mermaid by Moonflower. She is coloured with Copics. I was thinking of making a shaker card, but then I found this stepper card as I was going through my stash over the weekend. I also wanted to use my new stencils and some die cuts from La-La Land Crafts. All the details are on my blog, along with some close-ups of Gigi Little Mermaid. :)

Just fabulous as always ladies.

Please note, we are a colouring challenge and therefore you must display some colouring on your project - I'm sorry but we don't accept pre-coloured images.

This week we are very kindly sponsored by Kinda Cute

Our sponsor is very generously giving the winner of this challenge the prize of 3 single digis from their store.

Remember you need to claim your prize within 2 weeks as per the rules in the sidebar. Also please allow a few weeks for the sponsor to get back to you with any prizes. I'm sure you can appreciate that they are very busy.

Also don't forget we are also always looking for people to guest spot on our DT. So if you would like to be considered as a GDT, after your name on your entry add the letters GDT.

So let's get onto to what the team have made this week.

Ruth:  I've used both images provided (because I couldn't decide which one to use!) and first up is Boy Playing Video Game which I've coloured with a combination of Promarkers and watercolour pencils.  Papers are from a no longer available collection from Funky Hand and the sentiment is a magazine freebie.

And I've used Mermaid Monster, coloured with watercolour pencils and I've used Echo Park splash papers plus waxed coloured cord and buttons from my stash.

Billie A:  I am pleased to be using the fun image from Kinda Cute called Game Boy Playing.  He is kinda cute huh?. I started by putting a wooden plank floor under him with copics and a sharpie pen. I then added a green wall. Next I colored the image with copics. The sentiment is from Simon Says and I embossed it.  I used a Versa Mark pen to fill in the DUDE so it was darker. 

Hi! Hanna here. I'm using a digi today called Boy Playing Video Games. He is such a cutie! I have chosen the one with his tongue sticking out because my husband looks the same when he's playing video games. I couldn't resist couldn't I! ;) The card is also for him so it's a perfect match!  I coloured him with Distress Inks and added some Glossy Accents to the glasses. I've tried to use the same colours as in the patterned paper. 

Shell here with my latest make. I just love the cute images by Patricia at Kinda Cute. I use my Faber-Castell polychromo pencils to colour this cutie. I hope you like what I have done with it. You will find further details on my blog....The Camels Hump!

Jane - I have used the fabulous Boy Playing Video Games for my card and coloured him with Copics. The background was created with watercolour pens and pigment powders. All the colours are listed on my blog.

Just fabulous as always!

Welcome to Hanna who joins us for a 3 month Guest Designer spot!
Also, we say goodbye to Julia who is stepping down from the team - thank you for all your support and wonderful creations!

Hello.  This Kym here.  For my card I have used the seahorse and seaweed images from the "Emma the Mermaid and Friends Set".  I have coloured the images in with Promarkers.  I have used a Viva Declor blue pen to add some pearl drops to the seahorse.  I have fussy cut the seahorse and the seaweed.

For the background I have various Spectrum Aqua pens and scribbled on my glass mat, spritzed with water and whooshed the card around.  I kept repeating this until I'd got the effect I wanted.  I then got a darker blue pen, spritzed and then used a scrap of bubble wrap to make it resemble water bubbles in the water.  The Promarkers I have used are:

Seahorse - Canary, Yellow, Sunflower, Duck Egg Blue and Denim Blue

Seaweed - Duck Egg and Turquoise and Cool Grey 2.

Sue N  -  I used 5 x 7 cream card, used dark blue, light blue card to mount the image on to.  added blue shaped card in each corner, finished of with blue gems, school bag button coloured with blues, browns, skin colours promakers pens

Hello! Hanna here. I'm exited to share my first card with you as I'm going to be a guest designer for a couple of months. I coloured the image, Happy Flowers, by Fred She Said with Distress inks. I used some soft colours to colour the flowers like Victorian Velvet, Shabby Shutters and Milled Lavender - fits perfect with the patterned papers by Bildmålarna.

Hi Shell here with my latest creation, using one of our sponsors images Called 'Happy Flowers' 

I have used my trusty Promarkers & faber-Castell pencils to colour. I used an oval blank when running my embossing folder through my machine, it just gives some space on the background so it doesn't over power the image. You will find full details on my blog.... 

The Camels Hump!

Jane - I have used Nolan With Heart for my card today, cutting away the heart to make a shaker element!  I coloured the cute Nolan with Copics and the colours are listed on my blog.

Ruth:  I couldn't decide which image to use so I've gone with both!  First up is Nolan with a sign and he's been coloured with Promarkers and I handwrote my own sign

And my second uses Happy Flowers - I've decoupaged the biggest flower and added glitter and seed beads to the centres.

Just fabulous as always ladies.

So let's get onto to what the team have made this week.

Ruth:  I've used Lil Kidz Heart and Elephant Love and Stella 29 Again - all three images that Bugaboo supplied the DT!  More details are on my blog

Hello. This is Kym here. For my card I have used the Bugaboo Stamps image called "If Friends were Flowers". I have coloured the image in with Promarkers and added my Crafter's Companion clear sparkle pens to areas for some sparkle and shine.  The Promarkers I have used are:  Lilac, Lavender, Orchid, Ice Grey 1, Forest Green and Bright Green.

Hi again!! It's me - Vic,  with another challenge - they come around so quickly! I got a totally gorgeous image this time, from Bugaboo - called, "elephant love." It's a perfect image for valentines, which is just around the corner... although this time, I made a congratulations card and thought I could use it for an engagement card. The flowers are paper flowers - from Docrafts, I think. The darkest flower was punched. The sentiment came from Pink Petticoat (no longer trading). The heart paper is from a lawn fawn paper pack, while the roses paper came in a freebie paper pack, with a magazine, quite some time ago!  I inked the edges of everything on this card...sometimes using brown, sometimes pink. The border has been punched, and the butterflies, too.  I used the following alcohol pens: 

SPECTRUM NOIR: J7, J5, J3.

PROMARKERS: cool greys 1, 2 and 3. rose pink, blossom, lime green, vanilla, ruby.

Julia  Hi there .. for this card I have used Elephant Love I have used copic markers to colour:  Elephants: BV25, 23, 31, 11, 20, 0000, RV02, 10 000 Bow & Heart: RV09, 04, 02 Flowers: YR09, 14, 31 Grass & Leaves: YG99, 63, 25, 21 ... I completed the cards using some papers from my stash & the sentiment is from The Stampin Unicorn.



 For My next card I used Lil Kidz Heart and again Coloured with Copic Markers Face: E000, 00, 21, 11, 13, 04 Cheeks: R43 R21 Hair: 100 C10, 7, 5, 3 Heart: C10, R89, 59, 29, 27, 24, 11 ( I also overlayed the heart with the SN Sparkle pen clear overlay ) Outfit & Bow: 100 BG09, 07, 05, 02 Shoes: C5, 3, 1 Grass YG99, 95, 21 I teamed her up with some papers G.C.D - Paris Nights.

Penny here. I used Bugaboo Friendship Block to create this simple card.  Colored with Copic Markers RV02, R20, Y08, YG13, YG17, B45, B21,Uniball White Opaque Pen, Copic Spica pens for sparkle, and Fancy Pants paper, It colored up quickly and is a fun friendship image.

Hi it's Shell here with my second guest designer creation. I have used the fabulous 'Rose Bud Tag' by Bugaboo. I just love the versatility of this image, you can use it as a tag on a present/bag etc or you can use it as a topper on a card as I have below. I have used Faber-Castell Polychromo pencils to colour & distress inks for the shading, I also had a play with gilding flakes for the tag edge & sentiment. You can find further details over on my blog 'The Camels Hump'  

Just fabulous as always ladies.
