Week 8 - Anything Goes Colouring Challenge - Sponsored by Oddball Stamps

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 Oddball Stamps

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.  We are on the look-out for participants to join us for three month Guest Designer positions - if this interests you, please add GD after your name on your entry.  Good luck!

Ruth:  I've used Big Eye Girl with Heart, coloured with Promarkers.  Papers are from my stash and I've had them for quite some time!  They are from the no longer trading Funky Hand - Shabby Saturday; the flowers came from the download too and I've added a black fineliner outline around them and the edges of the card.

Hello.. It's Billie A. here with my card using the fun image Girl with heart. I colored her with Copics and went over parts of her with Spectrum Noir sparkle brush. I used My favorite things stitch die. I added her to some MFT designer paper and strips from Teresa Collins. I used Stampin up die and punch for the hearts and stamped an old Rubber baby buggy bumper sentiment. I added s piece of twine that I colored with a copic. 

Helloooooo, it's Jackie here. I used the image Big eyed girl with heart from our fabulous sponsor Oddball Stamps. I coloured with markers. I used a punched piece from a pad onto Craft Sensations Dp. A sentiment and flowers complete.  You can see more details HERE.

Hi, Dawn here.  I have used the fabulous Big Eyed Girl Heidi - Pink Swear Secret from the wonderful Oddball Stamps.  She is coloured with Copic Markers and I have simply added a ribbon and bow to complete the card. 

Hi, Julie O here. I've been gone a few months for health reasons, but it's great to be back!  I had the great fun of coloring up Big Eyed Girl with Heart - Sunni.  I used Copic markers on her, then cut her out with a stitched die from my collection.  That fun double sided heart die in the background is from Crafter's Companion.  A trio of silver hearts finished off the card.

Hi Dawn Frost here with Big Eyed Girl Heidi Pinky Swear from Oddball Art, so cute! I coloured her with copic markers and had a sentiment that was so her, lol! I dry embossed the background paper to 

add a bit more of interest and then added pearls. I used a grey ink for the clouds so they wouldn't detract from Heidi!

Hi it's Margo here with my card to inspire you this week. Our fabulous sponsor is Oddball Art and I have coloured Heidi Pinky Swear Secret with my copic markers. I have used some SU papers to turn her into a real girly card.

Just fabulous as always!

Week 7 - Anything Goes Colouring Challenge - Sponsored by Twinkle Lane 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 Twinkle Lane 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 Vintage Camera and coloured it with Promarkers.  Recycled various shades of kraft card for the layering and added a combination of Lawn Fawn and Clearly Besotted acrylic stamps for the sentiment

Hello.. Billie A here with my card using vintage camera..  I colored the image with copics. I then went over the film and lens with Spectrum Noir sparkle brush. I used Taylored Expressions postage die. I stamped the Tech. Tues. smile. I added this to Teresa Collins designer paper. You can see more over at my blog just by clicking on my name. 

Helloooooo, it's Jackie here. I used the image vintage camera from our fabulous sponsor Twinkle Lane Designs.  I coloured with Markers. I was guided with the colours from the Dp's I purchased only last week, hence the unusual colours! The Dp's are Craft Sensations. Sentiment die finishes.  You can see more details HERE.

Hiya - Vic here! I also loved working with the Vintage camera image from Twinkle Designs! I  used some vintage-looking / sepia type papers for the background and embossed a strip of stars, as a border. I inked all the edges of the papers - to age them. The "Smile!" sentiment came with the image and I freehand cut around it, so it resembled a FLASH! The "happy birthday" is a sentiment die that I bought (very cheaply) in The Works. I cut it in half and used it as two separate pieces. Some little punched, gold stars finished this card...

Hello! Marjeta here with my new card. I used the image vintage camera from Twinkle Lane Designs, who sponsoring our challenge. I colored with Promarkers and Prismacolor pencils. Film stripes are drawn by hand. For a final touch, I used a white gel pen.

Hi this is Elizabeth with an adorable image from Twinkle Lane Designs. This image is called

New Puppy.  I colored him with copic markers and blending was the key for this image. I had a little resin dog bone that I added for an embellishment too. 

Hello Janet here, I've used a Twinke Lane Designs image called Marigolds. I've coloured the image with Polychromo pencils. Not the usual colours for Marigolds but it was the colour that I fancied for this project. There are lots of distressed layers and a die cut sentiment.

Hello it's Helen here with a very cute image from Twinkle Lane Designs called 'New Puppy'.  I coloured the image with Promarkers and used some paw print backing paper layered with red and black paper to make my card.

Hi AuntySue here with my card using 'New Puppy' from Twinkle Lane Designs.

Coloured with promarkers added some digital paper I had one file. While doing a clear out I found a Clay bone and Paw Print the perfect embellishment. Sentiment cal with the image cut with a Spellbinders die.

Just fabulous as always!

Happy New Year!

We're looking to expand our Design Team and have a few positions available. We are a friendly and helpful team, challenges go live every Friday at 8am GMT and last for two weeks. We have four teams who post once every 4 weeks (although you can join in more often if you want!) and we have lots of wonderful and generous sponsors who allow us to use their images. We are looking for individuals who colour their own images, who have their own blog and a facebook profile. If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, drop me an email! Closing date is 14 February.

Week 6 - 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 one of the images kindly provided by the sponsor for the DT to use - Gus Birthday Recount and I've coloured him with Promarkers; the sentiment came with the image.  Papers are from my stash and I found them whilst having a sort and I know I've had them for ages as they are from Funky Hand!

Hello... Billie A. here with my card using Gus birthday recount..  I colored the image with copics. I went over the glasses and balloon with Spectrum Noir sparkle brush. I added to a piece of orange card stock. I stamped the Rubber bugger baby bumper sentiment and added it sideways to the card and added the Paper pretties sentiment.

Hi! Hanna here with a Harry Potter card for you today. I have used Harry Potter Collage, Magical Tidbit Bookshelf and Magical Tidbit Owl by Bugaboo Stamps for my card. I have coloured the images with Distress Inks. I have used a lot of Glossy Accents and Stickles in Star Dust and Gold on my card. The patterned papers are from the Under the stars collection by 13 @arts. I have die cut stars in gold foam with a die by Marianne Design. I wrote the sentiment on the inside of the card on my computer using the fonts Papyrus and Magical School Two.

Hello Margaret here I have used paper from We are 3 Best of Autumn paper set

Bugaboo sentiment and digi stamp from Stella Tidbits Hard Drive.  I coloured the digi stamp with Prismacolor pencils and markers.  I look forward to seeing your work for the challenge.

Hi, Silke here. For my card I used the cute image elephant love from Bugaboo. First, a design paper with golden hearts was applied to the card. A rectangle of pink design paper was attached afterwards. Now the image was colored with Copics, punched out and placed on the card. A heart and the text were punched out and added. Finally the card was decorated with small golden hearts.

Hi Lou here! For my card I have used the cute elephant image called Elephant Love from Bugaboo Stamps. I coloured with Copics and added Wink of Stella for some sparkle - especially the lady elephant's toe nails! The image is adhered to a white card from Envelope Solutions and then some hearts and a couple of sentiments from Good Thinking: Love Notes from Power Poppy were stamped with Love Letter Memento ink. Finally I have added a little wooden butterfly from my stash in the bottom corner with some clear sparkling Stickles. Further details are on my blog with a close up of the image so that you can see the sparkle!

Hello! Kathy here sharing a card that features a fun image and sentiment from a Bugaboo set named “Stella Tidbits-Hard Drive.” I cut the sentiment into two pieces so I could use it on the front and back. The image is colored with Spectrum Noir markers and a Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen then adhered to a card decorated with assorted office themed stickers and papers from my scrapbook stash. The Smead label is upcycled from a box of file folders and the Rolodex card is "authentic." I'm old enough to remember when we used such things because we didn't have computers, or cell phones... or even cable TV! I actually can identify with the confusion that Stella feels on this digi. So funny!) 

Just fabulous as always!
