So let's get onto to what the team have made this week.  Good luck to Monica who sadly is stepping down and this is her last challenge with us; thank you for your lovely creations!

This is our last challenge of 2019 and will last for 3 weeks, closing on 10 January 2020!

Ruth:  I've used the Gnome-Men Snow Ho Ho clear acrylic stamp and coloured it with Promarkers.  The sentiment comes with the set and that has been stamped onto an off cut of card.  Everything else is from my stash.


Hello, this is Monica and this is my final DT project here. This time I worked with the cute Musical Winter Winnie digi and created my card design in Silhouette Studio, but colored the image with Prismacolor colored pencils and a few spots of gel pen. You can find more details on my blog on how I added the gradient and the background paper.



Hi there, Dawn here with my project for this fortnight's challenge.  I have used the gorgeous Glass Half Full image from our fabulous sponsor Polkadoodles.  I decided to make a wall hanging to go in my craft room and this image just fitted my idea perfectly.  All the elements on here are from Polkadoodles and the full image is put together in Craft Artist.  The image itself is coloured with my Polychromo pencils and Prismacolour pencils.  You can find more details on my blog, just click on my name to take you there.


Hello  Billie A. with my card using the image Mailing a letter from Polkadoodles. I colored the image with Copics. I used My favorite things stitch die, envelope die and sentiment. I used Stampin up ink and finished with Spectrum Noir sparkle brush.


Helloooooo, it's Jackie here. I used the image Winnie White Christmas from our fabulous sponsor   Polkadoodles.  I coloured with markers and pencils. I matted and layered onto a patterned card blank. A bow and pearl complete the card.  You can see more details HERE.


Hi it's Margo here, I have used Glass Half Full from our sponsor Polkadoodles this week,to create a birthday card. I have coloured her with my copic markers and kept the rest of the card very simple.


And I have made a second card for this week using Mr & Mrs Claus from Polkadoodles.
This lovely couple has also been coloured with my copic markers, I have used some older papers from my stash and completed the card with some diecuts.


Hi Dawn here with my card Delivering Gifts by Sledge - Winnie White Christmas. This is my last Christmas card for this year and I just love how it turned out! I used copic markers to colour it and added snow drifts in the background and clouds to finish the scene. The word die finishes it off nicely!



Hello! Kathy here sharing a card that features a wonderful  image  from Polkadoodles  named “Delivering Gifts by Sledge.” I colored the image with Spectrum Noir markers and a Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen. I used an upcycled calendar page for the background, covered with a layer of vellum behind the colored image. The “snowdrifts” were easily created with torn cardstock and the fluff on her cap and boots were added with Polar White Flower Soft. The sentiment is from a Beccy’s Place digi set named “Here Comes Christmas.”

 

Hello - it's Helen here with my card for our final challenge of the year!  I've used a very cute image from Polkadoodles called 'Snow Friends' which is available here.  I coloured the image with Promarkers and kept the card layout very simple as it's just such a gorgeous digi stamp!


Just fabulous as always!

Week 49 - Anything Goes Colouring Challenge - Sponsored by Bugaboo

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 Bugaboo

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 Winter Penguin Ski and coloured him with Promarkers.  I've constructed a background using Polkadoodles Scenic Landscape dies, bakers twine and bell are from my stash.


Hello.. Billie A. here with my card using Christmas rocking horse from Bugaboo stamps  I colored the image with copics. I added the Pretty Pink Posh sentiment with Stampin up ink. I went around the edge of the card with Ranger blue ink.



Helloooooo, it's Jackie here. I used the image  Winter Penguin Ski from our fabulous sponsor Bugaboo. I coloured with markers and pencils. A beautiful border die, leaf  flower stamps and dies finish the card.  You can see more details HERE.



This is Elizabeth From Warm Harted with a Bugaboo Image called Ruby Christmas Drink.  This image was colored with Copics and the background paper was done with alcohol inks. Die cuts were used and the frame accented with red pearls.



Hello! Marjeta here with my last card this year. I used Bugaboo image called Ruby Christmas Drink, wich I colored with Promarkers. I added few die cuts and bow. Hope you like it and you will visit gorgeous Bugaboo stamp collection. In the last days of this year, I want you to have fun and do what you enjoy most.



Hi - Vic here! I wanted to share the card I made this week,  with the Bugaboo image: Winter Penguin Ski. He is such a little cutie.  I popped him on a backing of snowy paper and a little hill I cut out (and glittered along the top of). I coloured, using my alcohol markers - promarkers and spectrum noirs. The sentiment is a vellum sentiment - I bought a whole pack of them in The Works for £1 recently - a real bargain! Someone sent me the snowflakes a few years ago - I can't remember if they were punched or diecut.  I finished this card with a double (dry) embossed square and some doodling around the edges. 


Hello! Kathy here sharing a card that features a wonderful  image  from Bugaboo  named “Christmas Rocking Horse.” I colored the image with Spectrum Noir markers and a Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen. To make a Christmas ornament, I sandwiched the Rocking Horse between circles of vellum and acetate, attaching both with a bit of snail adhesive.  A small circle punches from silver paper and a bit of aluminum foil (yep… plain ol’ aluminum foil scored with a toothpick) became the hanger. Patterned paper, a bit of ribbon and silver photo corners finish this fun card.



Merry Christmas Janet here. I've used the Bugaboo image Ruby Christmas Drink. I've coloured here using Polychromo pencils. The background is embossed. The rest is a simple die cut greeting and a bow. A real fun image.


Hello AuntySue here with a little Blue card. The image I have used is called Christmas Rocking Horse and you can find in the store HERE.  I have coloured the image with Promarkers and all the DP is from a very old pad. I am keeping to my no buy Christmas 2019 papers. Dies are a mixture of Tonic & Mariianne all other embellishments are from my stash. You're welcome to pop over and take a closer look.


Just fabulous as always!

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

Ruth:  I've used Rudolph Cute Reindeer image, coloured with Promarkers.  I've used some kraft card to layer the image on and for the card base and I found a really old printed digi paper in my stash that worked well with the colour theme.


Hello.. Billie A. here with my card using two images from OddBall stamps.. Whimsical tree and Rudolph reindeer.. The tree comes in a pair I could only use one to fit the card. I found this DCWV designer paper for the background. I colored the images with copics. I used Simon Says die to cut the reindeer out. I fussy cut the tree. I added my cloud template and Ranger ink. The sentiment is from Simon Says, stamped with Stampin Up ink.  I added a SS star to the top of the tree.



Hi Silke here. For my card I used the image Rudolph Cute Reindeer from the sponsor Oddball Stamps. First I glued a Washi-Tape on a design paper, before I put the paper on the card. Rudolph was colored with Copics, punched out circularly and attached to a round punching element made of gold cardstock. A bow was attached over the imange. The sentiment was added and the card was decorated with rhinestones.


Helloooooo, it's Jackie here. I used the image Rudolph Cute Reindeer from our fabulous sponsor All Dressed Up. I merged two images to make this view. I coloured with markers and pencils. Pretty Dp's and die cuts finish the card. You can see more here.


Hello! Kathy here sharing a card that features a sweet image  from Oddball Art Co. named “Rudolph.” I colored the image with Spectrum Noir markers and a Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen. The vintage sheet music on the background is a freebie that I found HERE. His shiny nose is truly shiny... since I used a red rhinestone! 




Hello Margaret here sharing the card I made.  I have used papers from We are 3 Enchanted paper set
Ribbons and button from Digital Scrapbooking Studio and Scrap Graphics
Oddball Art stamp Rudolph Cute Reindeer which I have coloured with Prismacolor pencils an glitter gel pens.  I look forward to seeing everyone's entries.


I have used Whimsical Dancing Trees Set and Rudolph Cute Reindeer by Oddball Art for my 3D box card. I coloured the images with Distress Ink and added some white dots with my Signo Uni-ball pen and some Glossy Accents. The cardstock is called Diamond from Bazzill and it has canvas texture and a touch of shimmer. The patterned papers are from the Under the stars Collection by 13 @rts. The die means Merry Christmas in Swedish and is by Rox Stamps.


Lou:  I have combined Whimsical Dancing Trees Set and two Rudolph Cute Reindeer by Oddball Art and printed on to X-Press It Blending card. Then I have coloured with Copics pens. I adhered the coloured image on to a white card and stamped the sentiment using Nautical Blue Memento ink.

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

Ruth:  I got to play with some of their fab images!  I used Holly Poocherson and coloured with Promarkers.  I've used Polkadoodles Ho Ho Ho papers and layered the image onto some silver card from my stash.  I found some red satin ribbon in my stash that matched the backing paper so made a bow and attached a snowflake charm.


Hello, Monica here and this is my project using Deep Sea Diver. I colored the image with my Prismacolor colored pencils and cut it out with a circle die. Using a digital paper for my background, I adhered the focal image to the background and stamped the sentiment with Versamark ink and embossed it with white embossing powder.


Hello.  Dawn here with my project using Foxicorn.  He is just so darn cute isn't he?  He is coloured with my Copics and I have added sparkle to him all over with my Spectrum Noir sparkle pen.  The papers are from a Lili of the Valley paper pad called Enchantment.  The sentiment is a simple computer generated one to match the card.



Hello.. It's Billie A. here with my card using this fun image called Dachshund thru the snow.. I am a dog lover so was happy to be able to work with this fun image. I colored him with copics and added the Sugar Pea sentiment and the Merry Christmas is from Simon says.. I added some sequins and Nuvo drops to the centers. I went over parts with a Spectrum Noir sparkle brush. The designer paper is from a large 12x12 that I dont have the front name cover to.


Hi there,  Margo here and this week I made a card with the cute digi Tree Kitty by our fabulous sponsor Knitty Kitty Designs.  I have coloured the cute kitty with my Copic markers and decided to make a little shaker window next to her. The paper is from my stash and I put some sequins matching the paper colours.



Hi again - Vic here! I just HAD to join in with the challenge this week, when I heard Knitty Kitty Designs was our sponsor! I knew immediately the image I NEEDED to have. We got 2 fur babies recently...and I was totally inspired by this image - to make a Christmas card for my Mum n Dad and also one for my Husband.I know these cards will be right up their street and have been made with such love. I used "Christmas cat flap" I coloured with my alcohol pens and a little glossy accents / nuvo glitter here n there.  I fussy cut a little bunting from a docrafts sheet, which I have had for a few years.  I added a little grey pavement along the bottom, so I could add a new stamped sentiment I got recently. A couple of punched holly leaves finished this card.


The card I made for my Husband was done much in the same way, but this time I tried to make the door a little more like our own front door .. and added a few little hand-drawn lines here and there. 
I also added a stamped sentiment and our own front door numbers on each card.


Hello! Kathy here. I had such a hard time picking  digi this week from Knitty Kitty Digis that I picked two! My first features a humorous image and sentiment from a set named Cone of Shame The second features a cute image named Deep Sea with a computer-generated sentimentBoth of the cards were colored with Spectrum Noir markers and a Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen.  The cone of shame card incorporates one of my favorite specialty papers- vellum!


Helloooooo, it's Jackie here. I used the image Tree Kitty from our fabulous sponsor  Knitty Kitty Digis. I coloured with markers and pencils.I placed the image onto a printed card blank then added Clarity strips of paper and a die cut frame. A word, leaves and button finish the project. You can see more details here



Hi Dawn here with my Dachshund card. I coloured him with copics and tried to get a layered look to the fur and then added stickles to the hat. I love my new cloud stencil and have been putting clouds on everything! I sponged the burgundy to make it darker and of course got red ink on my fingers which I transferred to my image which is why there are three small snowflakes on it, lol, I LOVE embellishments!

Hello - it's Helen here with my card for this week.  I couldn't resist this digi called 'Dachshund Thru the Snow' - a great digi and a great name too!  I've coloured him with Promarkers and used a blue colour scheme for my card.


Just fabulous as always!
