We are here to give you the encouragement to help you move along and to give you feedback and advice about your project to help you improve – pop over to the Make it Crafty private FB group and post your project there where we can actively interact with you. Just make sure to let us know ‘what’ you would like advice on or you may not receive the help you are after. 

EASY CHALLENGE – PINK & BROWN

This month we want you to colour your EASY projects with a combination of Pink & Brown.

Altered tree

Hi everyone.. Just stopping by to share with you what I'm doing at the moment...

Over at the Make It Colourful challenge we have been turning some of the digi images in to something different.... you must follow the lines o the original image but alter them with colour....

I have used the Big Tree  from Make It Crafty... and gave him a face....

Here's the original Image
 

 I changed the opacity of the image before I printed it off and then used polychromos pencils for colouring....this did take a while to colour working out where to put the features using the original lines...

Hope you likey..

I will be back again really soon with more 'stuff'

Hugs for now

A day for Daisies....

Hi everyone..I just wanted to share some colouring I have been doing...I found these images a while ago from A Day For Daisies... it's took me a while to actually print them off and colour them...

This one is part of the timeless beauties and is called Braid in my Hair

I love these girls....

Hope you like them I have some more to colour and I will see you again really soon....

Tiddly Watercolouring.....

Yoo Hoo..... How are you..?  I'm just wamted to share the watercolouring I have been working onn for the last few days...not quite got the hang of it yet.... but that gives me a good excuse to play about and try again..

I have used a couple of images from Tiddly Inks..

This is a10'' x 7'' watercolour using Light of my Life  and the wooden frame...

I have used a mix of Aqua tone Crayons, Graphitint pencils and watercolour pencils... I never have all the right colours in just one medium...lol... I'm fairly happy with how it turned outbut still need to practise with the blending and controlling the amount of water...

Hope you like it, I have got a few more things to have a go at....

Make It Colourful.... New Challenge

Hi guys.... wow it's ages since I have posted anything on here.... I have been busy colouring but not with things I can share yet...but today I can share with you the new

Make It Colourful challenge
We would like you to either :-

Easy Challenge – Different Skin Combinations

This month we want you to try experimenting with different skin colours. Throw away those go to colours and try something new! You might even try colouring a dragon…  Teehee
Make sure you tell us what colours you have used on your blog page

or

Hard Challenge – Alter An Image Through Colouring Only

Now it’s time to put your colouring skills to the test. We want you to try it even if you think you’re no good. This is what helps you expand your skills and takes you to places you didn’t think was possible.
We want you to try your hand at colouring something with extra features what we like to call ‘creative colouring’.
You colour draw a face on a character, or even flowers buds… Lol. You could add scars, horns, hats and more. Add some new feature that isn’t in the original line drawing but you can only do it with your colouring medium. No altering of the lines

I have used Baby Dragon

I gave him some scales.... 

I have used polychromos pencils on canvas,  I like the idea of the texture but I think I can have another go and do him much better...

Shrunken Alice

I also had a go 'Zombifying' Alice

this is a mix of copics and prisma pencils...



Don't forget to check out the weekly specials over on the Make It Crafty blog

I hope you can join in the challenge... it's not scary at all you can do it if you try....

Thank you so much for stopping by and visiting me
Take care I will be back shortly
