This week we are very kindly sponsored by Polkadoodles

Our sponsor is very generously giving the winner of this challenge the prize of 2 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.  We welcome Carole Ann to the team as a Guest Designer!  Her wonderful creations are below!

Ruth:  I've used the Fox clear stamp from the Foxy Fun kit plus some of the papers.  I've coloured the image with Promarkers and just added some waxed cord from my stash!

Billie A - GD. Today I am using the fun image called Pirate little dude from Polkadoodles.. I started by sketching out the background using copics and my cloud template. I have an old stamp that if you turn one way it's sand and turn the other way it's water. I used Ranger inks in the sand/water. I added a little water edge foam using my white gel pen.  The sentiment and die are from Simon Says. Cute little pirate dude.. 

Sharon:  I have used Cool Dude from the Little Dudes range, alongside the matching papers and one of the sentiments that come with the image. I have coloured my guy in using a few water colour pencils, to match the backing papers and put it all together to make a really cheery card for a boy or teenager.

Hello.  This is Kym here.  For my seaside themed birthday card I have used the Polkadoodles image "Meribelle Friends" as I couldn't resist this little mermaid and her dolphin friends.  I have coloured the image in with Promarkers.  The Promarkers that I have used are: 

Face/skin - Saffron, Spice and Oatmeal 
Hair/mermaid body - Lemon, Yellow, Canary, Leaf Green and Apple
Flowers - Purple, Amethyst, Bright Green and Forest Green
Background - Swirls of blending tool around the image to make a patchy effect followed by Duck Egg.

Hi, There!  This is CaroleAnn.  For my first addition as Guest Designer, I was not satisfied with one image, I just had to have another.  So up first is Meribelle from Polkadoodles.  She is just too sweet to pass up.  I have made this into an easel card and used Copic Markers to color her up.  

Easel Card Open

The second image is Ruby.  She is just adorable and I am in love with her outfit and her shoes!!!!  She is all colored up in Copic Markers and I used a frame die called Rustic Nesting and shaded with distress inks. 

Just fabulous as always ladies.

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

Ruth:  I've used a no longer available cute Jellypark image for a teacher thank you card which I've coloured with Promarkers and then added to the card blank with foam pads.  I've scored a border around the edge of the card and added a little ruler and apple charm along with bakers twine from my stash.

Hello, Billie A here. I am a Guest designer for July. I have chosen to use My favorite things images for my card. Perfect for summer cards.  I created the background with Kuretake Gansi paints and cellophane. I colored the images with Mission gold paint and added some pearls for the bubbles.

Hello, Mary here. The image I am using is Butterflies of Hope by Hannah Lynn I used papers of orange matted onto blue and some butterfly paper from my stash. I stamped the sentiment and added blue sequins. I added a die cut a butterfly in black and orange. I have used Spectrum Noir pens Skin TN2, TN4, FS2, FS8, FS9, CR6 Hair TB3, TB5, TB7 Butterfly OR3, OR2, OR1 CT3

Janet - I quite like this image I've used it a few times now. It's a Kenny K image called bow. I've coloured her with alcohol pens. I've put her on to some colour matched floral papers. The sentiment is die cut.

Marjeta - My daughter surprised me with gorgeous Tim Holz stamps. I used one of my favorite image and colored with Promarkers: Lemon, Gold, Lipstic red and Arctic blue. For background I used DP from my stash and added a few snippets. For final touch I put feathers on birds tail.

Melle Clef : I made this lovely card with a freebie from Leann's World 101 progressive challenge. The girl looks so confident I will give this card to a friend who just had a great success. I colored her with watercolor markers.

Hiya! I'm back already - Vic.   This week, I have chosen to use this super-cute little image from Little Miss Muffet...it's called "Elisa's kitty."  Its a wonderful image to colour. I used all the promarker grey alcohol pens I have - numbers 1 - 5....and did lots of blending! I particularly love the little scarf round his neck. Such a lovely little addition. The stamped sentiment was from a set of stamps I found recently in a charity shop, for 25p! I do love a bargain! The scalloped circle die is from The Works... a fab little set of dies for only £3. Another bargain! Faux stitching and inking, finished the edges of the backing card...

Just fabulous as always ladies.

Week 27 - Anything Goes Colouring Challenge - Sponsored by Kinda Cute

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 we are very kindly sponsored by Kinda Cute

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!
