Good morning and welcome to The Colour Crazy Challenge blog!

Our weekly challenge theme is always Anything Goes

You can use any colouring medium you like, onto any project you like, and in any colours you like.
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 Knitty Kitty Designs

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.

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

Ruth:  This Knitted Kitty image really made me smile and as I'm on a mission to use up all my printed papers and scraps, I themed the colouring (with Promarkers) around it.  The papers have been in my stash for an absolute age and I used an X Cut die for the stars.  The sentiment has been printed on some vellum and I came across it by chance

Hello.. It's Billie A.. I am here with my card using the image called Knitted sweater kitty. I colored the image with copics and then took a white gel pen and created circles all over. I fussy cut the image out. I took a strip of scrap paper and heat embossed the My favorite things sentiment.. I added this to a piece of Basic Grey designer paper. I added the kitten with some foam dots.

Hello! Kathy here sharing a card that features Knitty Kitty's snuggly warm image named, appropriately, "KnittedKitty."  I paper-pieced the wool sweater with a free clipart Nordic wool sweater pattern that I found on the web. [You can find details on my blog of the steps I developed to create this realistic item.] The circle sentiment is from one of Imagine That Digistamps Freebie sets named "Jenn and Friends." [You can find it HERE.]

Hello, Carole here to share my Knitted Kitty card. I had a go at colouring a knitted jumper for the kitty. I read Annabel's brilliant instructions and followed along with her step by step, photo tutorial which can be found here. What can I say ... I found it extremely tricky and you'll notice that I dropped a few stitches and had trouble keeping my tension even! However, I am quite pleased with the overall effect. More details on how I made this card can be found on my blog post here.

Hi Silke here.For my card I used the Digi "Ballon Kitty" from  the sponsor Knitty Kitty Digis. On a pale purple paper a stencil was put on and many dots were dabbed on and afterwards the paper was attached on the card. The motif was colored with copics, punched out, colored at the edge and then positioned on the card.  A white ribbon was then placed around the card and a bow bound. The sentiment was embossed and affixed under the motif. Some balloons and some sequins complete the card.

Hi Margaret here.  For my card I have coloured Knitty Kitty Designs digi stamp No 56 Holly Poocherson with chalks and Prismacolor pencils.  Layered onto papers from We are 3 Holly Berries paper collection  Added We are 3 Precoloured Holly Leaf and berry twice

Hi! Lou here. I have used the Knitty Kitty Digi Did someone say cream cake? for my card, but the kitties remind me of our two cats that appear out of nowhere when we come home, so I made a Welcome home card. I have used Copics for the colouring of the cute kitties with help of colours and techniques from the wonderful Alyce at Kit and Clowder in her All About Animals Class. I am trying to use more of my stash at the moment, so there are more details on my blogpost here about the other parts of my card. 

Hi! Hanna here. I've used a digi called Did Someone Say Cream Cake? by Knitty Kitty Digis. Such a cute image which is perfect for a tall card.  I've coloured the cuties with Distress Inks and used cardstock by Bazzill in black, white and red.

Just fabulous as always!

Week 26 - Anything Goes Colouring Challenge - Sponsored by SheepSki Designs

Good morning and welcome to The Colour Crazy Challenge blog!

You can use any colouring medium you like, onto any project you like, and in any colours you like.
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 SheepSki Designs

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.

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

Ruth:  I've used Tulip Border and coloured it with Promarkers and cut it out using a Sizzix die.  The papers were magazine freebies from years ago which I found in my stash along with the organza green ribbon and half pearls.

It is Monica. I have created this card with Sheepski Designs Perfect Pointe image. I colored her with my Prismacolor colored pencils and cut her out on my Silhouette machine. The background is a digital paper and the sentiment added in Silhouette Studio. I love combining the digital elements with my hand colored focal images.

Hello.. This is Billie A.. I have a card to share using the SheepSki image Tulip border.  I colored the image with copics. I used my cloud template and Ranger ink. I cut the image out using My favorite things stitch die. I added the image to a scrap of Quick quote designer paper.  I then used Stamp simply sentiment.    

Hello, Julie O here.  I loved the SheepSki Designs image that I colored up today!  This is Perfect Pointe, colored with Copic markers.  I found the ballet themed papers at Pixel Scrapper.  They are digital.   The card base and music themed elements were cut out on my Silhouette Cameo. 

Hiya.  Dawn here.  I didn't know which of the two images we were given to use at first - then I had a light bulb moment - use them both.  So I used Perfect Pointe and Tulip Border and merged the two together.  The background is done in Craft Artist as is the sentiment then the image is added and cropped on to the background.  Coloured with my polychromo pencils and backed onto a piece of Distress Oxide background card.

It's Helen here with my card for this week using my favourite digi stamp from SheepSki Designs, the beautiful 'Tulip Border'.  I coloured the image with Promarkers and die cut the image into a rectangle.  I've kept the card layout very simple to focus on the image.

Hi, Dawn here with my Ballerina! My card is with SheepSki Designs Perfect Pointe and I coloured her with copic markers then fussy cut her out! (Thank goodness for my light and magnifying glass, lol!) The background is musical notes embossing folder which I then sponged over. 

Hi, Margo here with the gorgeous Tulip Border from Sheepski Designs.  I've have coloured the flowers with my Copic Markers and used Vintage Photo to distress the edges.  The papers are from Studio Light aswel as the little paper diecuts. I decided to make a vintage-looking label this week.

Just fabulous as always!

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

Hello.. It's Billie A. here with my card using the image Pose of an elongated triangle. I colored the image with copics. I went over the stars on her work out pants with Nuvo sparkle pen. I stamped the sentiment with Stampin up ink and added the Simon Says scallop border. I used My favorite things stitch die to cut the image out and layered on My minds eye designer paper. I finished with a piece of twine colored with copic pen and curled the edge.

This is Elizabeth with a darling mermaid from Little Blue Button called Miss Lilly Mermaid. She is colored with Copics and a little glitter added to her hair. I stayed true to the mermaid idea with the wave background paper and the fun fish stickers. I die cut a circle and added blue gems to imitate a porthole on a ship.

Hello Crafters! Marjeta here. I am happy to show you my new card. I used gorgeous Little Blue Button image called Pose of an elongated triangle. I coloured image with Promarkers and background with Distress Ink from Tim Holtz. I added a piece of corrugated cardboard, Baker's twine and buttons. Butterfly and sun are heat embossed.

Hi - Vic here again. This time, I used the image called "Pose of an elongated triangle" from Little Blue Button Stamps. I coloured her with my alcohol markers and added a simple embossed background and a square of spotty paper. I didn't feel she needed too much fuss and popped her on a little yoga mat. I hand-wrote the sentiment. I am going to give this to a work colleague who loves yoga.

Janet here and my inspiration also using Little Blue Button image Pose of an Elongated Triangle. I've coloured her using Polychromo pencils. The background is using up some bits out my left overs box, it's not very often I think to use some of them up. The flower die cut is also something I found in with my bits. for decoration I've added some ribbon and gems.

Hello AuntySue here with a image I won at our sponsors Little Blue Button Stamps page. This is Charlie - Teacher. With all the schools finishing I thought why not make a Thank You card with it. You can find the image in their shop HERE.  Coloured with promarkers and backing is Stencil work.

Pop over to my blog for a closer look.

Just fabulous as always ladies.

I matted the image on a piece of scrap. I heat embossed the sentiment. I am not sure who it's by. It's an old acrylic set. I thought it went well with the fun image. 

Hello! Kathy here sharing a card that features Oddball Art's cute image, " Lazy Louise and Bathtime Bubble Friends."  You can find it HERE. I colored the image with Spectrum Noir markers and Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen.

Leaving the die in place, I blended ink to the stamp background. I matted the image onto pink card. The background, also matted onto pink card, is made from patterned glitter card by Deco Time. I added some sheer pink ribbon and some mulberry flowers that I dyed with Distress Ink. More details are on my blog here.

Week 23 - Anything Goes Colouring Challenge - Sponsored by Createful Heart

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

Ruth:  I've used Worn Out Truck kindly provided by the sponsor and coloured it with Promarkers.  The papers I found in my stash and I hid the paper join with the two little flags.

Hello, Billie A. here with my card using the image called Meadow flowers. I colored the image with copics. I used Paper Pretties sentiment and mounted it to an softer orange card stock. 

Helloooooo, it's Jackie here. I used the image WORN OUT TRUCK, from our fabulous sponsor Createful Heart. I coloured with markers and pencils.  Please enter your hand coloured creations HERE.We love to see your work! You can see more information on my blog HERE.

Hello.  This is Kym here.  For my card I have used the image called "Meadow Flowers".  I coloured my image in with Promarkers and these are the colours I have used:

Flowers/butterflies - Lemon, Yellow, Tulip Yellow, Coral, Sunkissed Pink and Antique Pink

Greenery - Gold, Apple, Leaf Green, Forest Green and Bright Green

Fence - Sandstone, Pastel Beige and Khaki.

Hello! Kathy here sharing a card that features the image "Worn Out Truck."  You can find it HERE. I created a textured rusty look by first coloring the image with Tombow watercolor markers, mostly green with some rusty brown patches. I dipped a brush in water and painted over the card, adding extra water on the brown areas. While wet, I sprinkled regular table salt on over the card, making sure to cover it well. I allowed the card to dry then brushed the remaining salt from the card.  Created an interesting look. Note, to keep the card from buckling while it was drying, I placed it in an old phone book [remember those?] and added a few books on top of that. The phone book captured any wayward salt so it wasn't too messy. 

 

Hello everyone, Sarah here also using Meadow Flowers on my card. I colour cute people images mainly so was a bit daunted by this image but I had the best time colouring it using my favourite pink and green Promarkers!! 

Good Morning / Afternoon Coloring enthusiasts..   AJ here. Today I am showcasing Worn Out Truck,   a Createful Heart Digital Stamp Digital Stamp.  Please visit my blog post @ Worn Out Truck  more details .. 

Hi, this is Jolanda. I used the "Meadow Flowers" to make a card with. I coloured the image with Copic markers and mounted on beige cardstock and then on a light blue double card. "Gefeliciteerd" is a sticker meaning "Congratulations".

Hi Carol here using Meadow flowers coloured with promarkers and I just mads a CAS card using a scrap of paper from stash.
