wk 48....TWO COLOURS - Graph'It Colouring Crazy challenge

Welcome back to another Graph'It Colouring challenge!

Our challenge this week is
TWO COLOURS
Now this can be ANY two colours and to make it a bit easier you can use other tones too, but the primary colours in your project should be a double combo, ie pink and white, blue and white etc....

We were a little mean to the team and we have made them use only 
BLUE AND GREEN 
to dispel the myth that 'Blue and Green should never be seen'....I have no idea where that comes from but it's so wrong because it's a fabulous combination and works really well!

Remember you don't HAVE to use Graph'It markers to enter our challenges, just follow our simple rules in the sidebar and you could be our Random Prize winner to receive a set of markers! 

Let's see what the team have made! ....

wk 44 - Graph'It Colouring Crazy Challenge - Water/Ice & Blue/Purple

Welcome back to another Colour Crazy Challenge here at Graph'It!
WOW, do we have some amazing makes for you this week!!...
Before we get to the challenge, first of all we have to give you a sneaky peek of something new which is about to hit the shelves here in the UK

Nikky has been keeping this a secret for about a year now but she has been creating some special colours for Graph'It which are now available in this special 'Character Crafting' set which is launching right now and about to hit the shelves and into your GI bags!
Nikky wanted to have some extra pastel shades which would fit within the current range - as crafters we tend to colour in more pastel tones than the Manga and Comic Artists who love their Graph'It markers so she has been working with Graph'It for the last year to bring you these special colours which she mixed herself....
The new colours into the range are Melonball, Bubblegum, Glass, Citrus, Pastel Green and Jade....6 fabulous colours which can all be found in this special Character set (but don't worry, the other colours in this set are ones you will use a lot so don't worry about duplicates, it's still worth buying the set as it'll give you those extra skin and hair colours anyway!).
Aren't these great? And they fill some gaps in the current colour chart which we've been waiting for ages! Melonball now completes the peachy tones, Bubblegum provides a great pastel to blend into 5140 and 5160 giving some really nice rose options, Glass is the perfect pastel blue and the 3 greens now mean we can get much softer foliage and landscape tones, not to mention lovely soft greens for clothing options! 

Right, let's get to the Challenge!
This week we challenged the team to show us
Water/Ice or Blue/Purple Tones
This one made some of them very scared but it doesnt have to be - it can be blue/purple tones for Winter/Xmas, rain, Glass, water, snow - there are lots of possibilities! 
So we just want to see your makes which cover any of these options or something else you might have up your sleeves! 
You have until 14th November to enter this challenge and the winner will receive some Graph'It goodies to play with - just please follow our simple rules to enter. You DO NOT NEED TO USE GRAPH'IT to enter - we accept entries from any alochol medium and you can also use pencils and distress inks to enter too! 

We will announce the winner of the last challenge next week, but let's see what the team have made!.....

wk 43... Extra FX Inspiration - Graph'It Colouring Crazy Challenge

Welcome back to another super Graph'It colouring treat!

Our challenge for you again this week is

Extra FX
and this is our 2nd week of this challenge so you can ENTER HERE

This challenge basically translates as some extra little colouring effects we want you to show us! This can be spotty effects, textures, backgrounds, fancy schmancy - the result is up to you! 

You have until Oct 31st at noon GMT to enter and you can use any brand of alcohol marker to enter - our random winner will receive a pack of Graph'Its and the DT will choose their Top 3!

You can see the winners of our last challenge at the bottom of this post but let's see what the team have made this week!

Nikky...I love making backgrounds and little scenes for my characters when I colour, it can really lift a project and because it's something you do yourself it makes your character or image totally unique which is just fab! 
I decided to actually go really easy peasy but show you a cool background which can really change your images quite dramatically and this is my new fave at the mo...just add colours onto the Mix'It palette and pick up the colour with a blender brush and apply, working from a smallish dot and then extending the colour outwards as you work in a circle...you might find it looks a little bleachy and mottled but once you've blended the edges of the circles to make them really soft, go back and add more colour into the centre and it will look perfect! Depending on what colours you use and how daring you want to be is up to you, have a play and experiment! I used this Octavia image which you can get here.


Skin, 4125, 4150, 3120
Hair 5115, 5135, 5140, 5180
Dress: 5135
Background: 5115, 7130, 7110, 4145, 4147, 5125, 7210, 6130  & Silver glitter pen.

I really enjoyed this challenge I had such fun making my background, The image I have used is from Polkadoodles Festive Hollybobs Cd Rom I printed the image twice so that I could cut one out to use as a mask, I created my background by roughly colouring the the whole area with 9101,9102 & 9500, I then masked my image and sprayed some Mix it fluid, I then used the blender pen to remove some colour and give a snowing effect, I also added some Silver glitter pen spots, after it dried off I coloured the image and then added a little frantage to bring the snow effect over my image. I hope you like it.
Skin, 4150..4155..4170..4180

Mr Foxy: 3190,3180,3170,3130,2180,2170

skin: 4125, 4150, 4170, 3125/ 4145, 4135, cheeks

wk 42...Extra FX - Graph'It colouring challenge with tutorials

Welcome back to your Friday Graph'It colouring treat!

Our challenge for you this week is

Extra FX

Which basically translates as some extra little colouring effects we want you to show us! This can be spotty effects, textures, backgrounds, fancy schmancy - the result is up to you! 

You have until Oct 31st at noon GMT to enter and you can use any brand of alcohol marker to enter - our random winner will receive a pack of Graph'Its and the DT will choose their Top 3!

Now last week we had a tutorial from Nikky and although this doesnt follow the theme for this week let's see the next video.....

Nikky...Hi again! I've had a bad week with hurting my back and having waited all week for it to wear off it did so this morning only I awoke to a really nasty cold, bad throat and no voice! Why am I telling you this?...in the hope you'll forgive me for losing/deleting the other 2 videos in the series we started last week!
I filmed all 4 together at the same time and on this week's version for hair the first video gets cut off when my battery died right near the end (I'm forever the professional haha!)...so there was 2 videos for this section and then a 3rd for the clothing but I *cough cough* appear to have deleted them both! I'm not in any state to re-film this for you this week so can only apologise but I still wanted to share this with you and I promise I will do a PROPER series in the next couple of weeks again!
So here is round 2 of this image...

To make it extra hard for the DT for this challenge they all had to add some kind of background effects, so let's see what they've made!....


Yvonne - Hi there everyone. Well I made my first Halloween card earlier on in the week and I made a lovely Halloween sky with Distress Inks, after I was finished I thought to myself, I bet I could do that with Graph'Its, so here is my effort at my own background using these fabulous markers. The Spooky House, Dracula and the Mummy are all available as instant downloads from Polkadoodles. 


Markers used are as follows:
Sky:  2105, 2110, 2120, 2140, 2160, 2150, 2180
Grass:  8280, 8270, 9504
Dracula:  4125, 4155, 4170, 6140, 6175, 6185, 9505, 9507, 9508, 9509, 9905 & 9099
Mummy:  9500, 9502 and lots of Blender
 House Windows:  1150, 1250
Pumpkins:  2110, 2150, 2180



Penni - I decided to create a different type of background, more abstract / fantasy


Graph'It Markers used 
Background - 8240, 7220, 1170 with Mix'It Fluid 
Skin - 4170, 4125, 4120
Hair - 9404 and 0000
Dress - 1180, 1110, 1250
Ballet Slippers - 4135, 5140

Here's a close-up

There is a Photo Tutorial on my blog showing how I created this background effect. 


Anjie - When I saw this challenge I must admit I panicked a little bit, well quite a lot actually! While I'm ok at colouring images, creating backgrounds I can't do! Anyway I had a go and this is what I came up with.

To create the background, after colouring the sky I used the blender to take out some of the colour in the shape of clouds.
The colours I used are:
Skin: 4125, 4150, 4135, 4145, 3120, 3210
Hair: 3210, 3245, 3250, 3255
Clothes: 8130, 8140, 8150, 8160
Sky: 7105
Grass: 8110, 8120, 8130, 8240, 8270
More info on the rest of the card is on my blog


Claire Boelema - I've been poorly this week and as such didn't have time to spend colouring up images and creating fancy backgrounds. So I made a really quick background using Graph'It markers, acetate and Mix It Fluid. Full details can be found on my blog.


Graph'It Markers Used
1180, 2150, 5160 and 7290
Mix It Fluid


Claire C I've used my Graph'It markers to colour the leaves on the background of my card as well as the main image. I'm really loving this technique as the markers create a gorgeous effect on Maimeri Iridescent medium




colours used: 
Hair: 3145, 3120, 1230,1210
Skin: 4180,4155, 4115, 4125 (plus 4135)

Claire C I've made a canvas using one of Nikky's gorgeous new images 'Octavia thinking' coloured of course with my Graph'It markers. I printed her on to printable canvas and then stuck this to my canvas  once I'd coloured her. I also used my Graph'Its to add some interest to the background. I created a stencilled background using PanPastels and  stencilled leaves with Maimeri Iridescent Medium and the polkadots around the edges of the canvas and coloured them with my Graph'its, they look lovely and shimmery in real life. You can find all the details on my blog.....

This week rather than make a card for you I've made a tutorial video - now this is split down into 4 series of videos which I will release weekly for you to help you practice practice practice! In these videos I share the colour choices and lots of hints and tips so whether you're just starting with Graph'It or been using them for a while hopefully you will find something useful along the way. 
So let's get to it! Week One is Skin!....
