Week 50 - Anything Goes Colouring Challenge - Sponsored by Pattie's Creations

Welcome to the Colour Crazy Challenge!

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 we are sponsored by Pattie's Creations

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.

It is with sadness I announce that this will be the last Colour Crazy Challenge - the Design Team would like to thank all our sponsors over the years and all our participants - without you it would not have been the Colour Crazy Challenge

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

Josje Hello today I can show you another Christmas card with this nice digi from Pattie's creations the sponsor . I colored the digi holiday topiary with my caran d 'ache pablo pencils

Pam here ~ I selected the Holiday Topiary also as I think the Holly and Berries are just perfect for the Christmas season. After sizing the digital image to just over 3" tall I printed it and did the coloring with my Copic markers. I used Gina Marie Designs Oval Lace die for the decorative edge. The rust swirl patterned background matting picks up the shades in the pot perfectly. The two layers are mounted on a Kraft A2 base to complete my project.

Hello! Lou here! I decided to use both images that we had available from Pattie's Creations: Holiday Topiary and Candy Canes with Bow. When I was resizing the topiary image in Pages, I added the candy canes on to the pot and then printed on X-Press It Blending card. They were both fun to colour in Copics. The background idea was inspired by the wonderful Alyce at Kit and Clowder and her awesome Monthly Classes and Bonus Classes. I have adhered the completed image on to a white card from Envelope Solutions. Further details can be found on my blog post: here.

Ruth: I've used the Holiday Topiary and used Promarkers to colour plus little half pearls for the berries. Paper is from my stash and I've added an over the top red bow - it's Christmas after all!

Just fabulous as always!

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

Hiya it's Louise here and my card this week sponsored by Mirtillamente, and the image I am using is Santa Ops! I have coloured the image using promarkers, and some stickles glitter glue. The background paper and greetings were from some free Christmas papers I have had a while from a magazine. Added a couple of Brads.

Pam ~ Welcome to a new week of challenges here on Colour Crazy. I'm suing 'Santa Ops' from our sponsor Mirtillamente Craft Shop today. I've printed the image after sizing for a A2 card front and then colored with Copic markers. I added the Horizontal 'roof' line and made a full moon and falling snow using Copics, Distressed Oxides and a white gel pen. After die cutting, I added the sentiment 'Never stop believing in Santa', then mounted on navy blue dotted swiss and secured both to the A2 card base to complete my design.

Happy FriYay! So glad its nearly the weekend. I'm using Sweet Rudolf today for my inspiration from Mirtillamente. The image has been coloured with Copics before fussy cutting. The Kraft paper is from Hobby craft and behind the image paper cut with a die from First Edition. The wooden sentiment is also from Hobby Craft. Have a lovely crafty weekend :)

Hi Crafty Friends! Donna here with the fun and wild Sweet Rudolph, which was genrously supplied by our sponsor Mirtillamente. I've colored him using alcohol markers and kept the design minimal so Rudolph would take center stage. Have a Sweet Christmas Everyone!

Just fabulous as always!

Week 48 - Anything Goes Colouring Challenge - Sponsored by Hetty Claire

This week we are sponsored by Hetty Clare!

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

Hi Dawn here with my Hetty Clare image, Pony Xmas Hat, so cute! I coloured him with copic markers and popped up the fur of his hat and the pom pom. I created the background using Smooch Spritz and Perfect Pearls Mist on whisper white cardstock, sooo fun! Once it was dry I used Stampin Up softly falling embossing folder and stickles on the snowflakes. There is a snowflake behind the sentiment and lastly I added the pearls. Love how it turned out!

Hello all, it's Sarah here with my card for this week's challenge. Our lovely sponsor this time is HettyClare and the DT were very kindly given a digi to use, so this is my make with the super cute Pony Xmas Hat. I could almost imagine the pony being annoyed someone was trying to dress him up like Rudolph the Reindeer and ran with that idea! I used my Copics to colour the image, a stencil for the background and went simple with the style. Please visit my blog if you would like more details.

Pam here, wishing you a Merry Christmas as I join in today my Design Team card using Hetty Clare's Cat Christmas image. I added the Christmas Wishes sentiment to the side of the cat image and then colored her with my Copic markers. I covered the A2 card base with red cardstock, then added the vertical strip of Christmas kitty paper. After die cutting the completed image with the pretty stitched edge, I secured it to the right edge of the card front. This gave a little more balance and allowed more of the patterned paper to be visible.

Ruth: I've used both images as I couldn't pick just one! Using Promarkers and bits and bobs from my stash

Just fabulous as always!

This week we are just for fun as we don't have a sponsor

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

Hi! Marjeta here. Today I used hand stamped image from Penny Black. I colored snowmen with Promarkers and a touch of Prismacolor pencils. The background was created with Distress ink. I embossed snowflakes (Docrafts) with white Ranger embossing powder and added some Frantage. The sentiment is from Crafters Companion. Finally, I add some glitter to the snowman's cap.

Hello... It's Billie A. with my card using Newtons nook image. I colored with copics and used washi tape across the My favorite things die for grounding. I added the images and sentiment. I added this to a piece of scrap plaid. I went over parts of the presents and cupcake with Spectrum Noir sparkle brush.

Hi this is Elizabeth at Warm Harted with a cute bird for Christmas from 2 Cute Ink called Winter Cardinal. I first did some die cutting for the card then colored the image with Copic Markers. I added a bit of glitter to the bird and snowflakes. I made the bow from satin ribbon and added some holly and other gems.

Hi Dawn here with an All Dressed Up stamp Summer Fairy, she is so adorable! I coloured her with copic markers and added liquid pearls. The main background I did myself with Artistically Inked, it was sooo cool! Lastly adding pearls.

Hi - Vic here! Thought I would pop in with my card for this challenge - there is no sponsor this time, so we could choose any image from any sponsir. 'm here with a bit of an exclusive... This will be the first time you see this little gem of an image, as it's very very new...and coming very, very soon, over at Pattie's Creations! Keep an eye out for this very versatile digi image, on Pattie's page.... you will want to snap this up! I printed the image out, reversing some of them, to make a card for my sister and her family. I loved colouring all the mugs as I thought the people would like them. I added a digital name onto each mug before printing. I hand coloured them all with my promarkers. All it needed then, was a few diecut snowflakes, a stamped sentiment and some cute paper to sit the mugs on.

Just fabulous as always!

Week 46 - Anything Goes Colouring Challenge - Sponsored by Dr Digi

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 sponsored by the wonderful Dr Digi!

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

I can show a card again. Josje This nice digi, Mavis and marco's movie night is from dr Digi's sponsor. I colored the digi with pencil, cut it out and stuck it up, it has become a smart line card the glass I have stuck out of the card.

Pam ~ For my project card today, I've selected 'Ambrose Dunderton', from our sponsor, Dr. Digi House of Stamps. He's colored using Copic markers and die cut with a simple x-stitched rectangle shape. I've stamped the sentiment from my stash that is appropriate for this masculine 'mature' image and matted it in dark green. The A2 card base is covered in a number patterned paper which is perfect for the Birthday card theme. After adding the layers I tied a green string around the fold and added a 'music' charm at the knotted bow.

Hi Dawn here with one of my favourite characters from Dr Digi, Flossie Bumblethorpe on Santa's Knee. I coloured them with copic markers and fussy cut Santa's head, all of Flossie, her hands and Santa's hand. I have a really large magnifying glass, lol! I embossed the pink background with tiny dots and the main background with frosty morning. I used crystal effects on Flossie's eye glasses and it made the ink bleed, I was very ticked! Finally adding stickles, ribbon, rhinestones and the word die. IRL it looks so dimensional, I love how it turned out!

Ruth: I really like using the Cake Numbers set (each number can be bought individually too!) and I made this card for one of my team - who doesn't like cake?! Coloured with Promarkers and a little glitter glue on the candle flames, I've kept it all nice and simple to show off the wonderful numbers!

Just fabulous as always!

Week 45 - Anything Goes Colouring Challenge - Sponsored by Conie Fong

Welcome to the Colour Crazy Challenge!

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 we are sponsored by Conie Fong Art

The sponsor is generously providing a special code during the two weeks of this challenge that can be used to get 25% off in the store! Please use COLOURCRAZY25NOV

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

Pam: I'm here to share with you my project card using our Sponsor, Conie Fong Art, image Candy Cane Penguin. I wanted to make a 'ouple' card so I duplicated the image and reversed it to make a pair for my card. You'll notice the 'girl' is slightly smaller as I wanted them to be a couple, not twins. I've used Copic markers for coloring and added the falling snow and snowy hills. This is a fun image to color and makes a great Christmas card.

Hello Friends! Donna here with a card featuring the Candy Cane Penguin digital image and sentiment graciously provided by our sponsor Conie Fong. This little cutie was a fun and easy color using alcohol markers. Christmas truly is the most wonderful time of year!

Happy Friyay! andrea here with some inspiration from Conie Fong using her Candy Cane Penguin (what a cutie!). I've coloured him with Copics and then fussy cut him. The design paper is from Hobby Craft cut with dies and I've used a wood chip embellishment from my stash. Have a wonderful crafy weekend :)

Hi Dawn here with my Conie Fong card, I chose to use Christmas Tree Gnome, he's such a sweetheart! I coloured him with copic markers and used a sakura glitter gel pen on the star and ornaments. I couldn't find a background paper I liked so I created my own. I stamped a dotted background on whisper white paper using versa mark and embossed with detail gold. I sponged gable green (light green) on most of the front and then edged with handsome hunter (darker green), finally adding the glitter epoxy dots to match the gnomes hat. The dots are very subtle in the photo but IRL look really good!

Ruth: I've used both images as I couldn't pick just one! I've kept them very clean and simple, using dies to cut out the images and then to layer onto cards. Coloured with Promarkers plus a little glitter glue here and there. Great images for making lots of cards quickly!
