So let's see what the team have made for you this week...

Scatty I loved colouring up my image this week , How cute and a perfect start to my Christmas cards. The image is from our lovely sponsors The Stamping Boutique and is called Happy, happy snowman , you can find him in the store right here . I loved the palettes this week they really inspired me to use lots of gold and silver and admittingly using my Graph'it shake markers really properly for the first time together. I adored using them , but had to take a sideways photo so you could see them in all their glory...

The colours I used are

Skin 4125/4123/4145/4150/3120

Snowman 9503/9502/9501/8500

Browns 3250/3255/3245/3210

Graph'it Shake Silver & Gold

Cara - I used this lovely wintery image called CandyLand Winter Ice Princess and you can find her here.  I used all of my Blue Grey's to achieve the silvery colour pallete.  I added my Gold Shake marker to her Tiara and the stars and then the Silver Shake marker to everything else! I have also taken a sideways photograph as glitter is definitely camera shy!...

Colours used:

Skin: 3105, 4155, 4150, 4135

Hair: 370, 3250, 4345

So let's see what the team have made for you this week...

Nikky...I love Oddball Art images. I have to be honest and admit that I forgot what the colour palette was meant to be this week but I had a massive booboo when I coloured these images. I decided to do a funky background but forgot to mask my images off and sprayed Mix'It solution over the entire piece - eeek! It was like a scene from Chucky with all that bleeding everywhere! I was distraught I can tell you! But when I looked it was worse around the outer edges really so I decided to cut the images and then decoupage them rather than start from scratch. 

So in the end I coloured a background onto a card front using 7250 and then sprayed with Mix'It to create snow. I then went a bit berserk with my Graph'It Shake White swoonable pen to create a flurry of snow. 

I need to point you in the direction of the top and bottom edges of my card - see all the glittery stuff? This is SO cool!

Colours used: Skin: 4105, 4125, 4150, 3105 - cheeks, 4145, 4135

Hair (left) Grey greens and Blue Greys 

Teal Blue background: 7240 and 7250, White Graph'It Shake

Red and Greens clothing: 5245, 5280, 8260, 8280

Head over to my blog to find out more about how I made this and that cool glitter effect...

Anjie -   I have used Christmas colours for my make.

The cute image from Oddball Art and is called Sherry Rescues a Puppy. I coloured the image and then coloured a background which was a total fail so I fussy cut the images out to add to a new background! More info on my blog.

The Graph'It Markers I have used are:

Skin: 4105, 4125, 4150, 3120

Reds: 5210, 5222, 5240, 5270

Blues: 7122, 7125, 7130

Dog: 9100, 9101, 9102

Wall: 3210, 3230, 9401, 9402, 9403

Claire C, I've used the Christmas colour palette to colour up this adorable image from Oddball Art

. She's called Ellie the Elf and you can find her here

I'm soooooooo enjoying making backgrounds with my Graph'Its, this was made by just scribbling my markers onto the background not worrying too much about blending and then dripping on Mix'It Fluid using the end of the spray tube from the bottle. The White Graph'It Shake pen is perfect for adding snow and the Silver Shake pen gives a little frosty sparkle

Colours used: 

Skin: 3210,3105,4150, 4125,4105 plus 4135

Hair: 9905

Reds: 3160, 5280, 5240,5220,5210

Aqua: 7280,7250,7240,7220,7210, 

Cool greys, blue greys, Silver Shake, White Shake, Mix'it Fluid

Scatty Jan  Happy Friday :-) I am not normally here on Team A , but I really could not resist colouring up the very sweet Chester , you can find him in the store right here, This one is Cracker Chester but there are a few Chesters to check out. I used the colour palette for my inspiration , loving the reds and golds..... I thought he looked as if he really was up to mischief so placed him swinging from the bauble .

Wow! Fab colouring this week!! Some great ways to use those oranges and browns!

-------------------------------------------------------

So let's get onto the last lot of winners....

We had a little booboo and got a bit mixed up with weeks over the past month so it's taken a couple of weeks and a few headaches to work this out LOL...In the end as we'd got out of synch and clearly some of you were confused too, we've decided to add the missing weeks and winners together into one big pot to make it really fair.

So we have combined Week 38, 39 and 40 as there were only 6 entries over all 3 weeks and because of this we havent chosen a Design Team Top 3 - thankyou to everyone who did enter and again apologies if we confused you - we confused ourselves too!....

Scatty Jan How cute is my is the little image Ellie the Elf  I really enjoyed colouring her up . I think I will use her on a few Christmas cards this year. I coloured the background sky using 7110 and then used my blender and white marker for the snow. I then attempted some little bushes and added some little polystyrene snowballs to finish. For the sentiment I just used the empty biro method picking the lightest Red/Green.....

Colours I used....

Skin 4135/4125/4150/3120

Green 9505/8220/8280

Red 5245/3180/5210/5220

Bushes 1270/1230/8150

Kevin I have messed up a bit here re the colour schemes, but I think I have kind of managed a chilly autumn day using this sweet image called  Sherry rescues a Puppy.... I had fun creating the cloudy background.....
