Week 28 - Anything Goes Colouring Challenge - Sponsored by Knitty Kitty Digis

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.

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!

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 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!
