Good morning folks, its challenge time over at Graph'It Colouring Challenge and we've got a nice easy challenge for you, just choose one of the colours from the colour palettes over on the challenge blog and you can be in with a chance of winning a fab prize!!
I've used the Christmas colour palette to colour up this adorable image from Oddball Art
. She's called Ellie the Elf and you can find her here. One lucky winner will receive 3 digis to play with and another will win a set of Graph'It Markers from Cult Pens (who have a fabulous offer on Graph'Its at the minute so pop on over and have a peek!!)
I usually do my background before I colour the main image in case of disaster lol but this time I forgot and coloured Ellie first so I went ahead to create the background without any major mishaps.

I'm soooooooo enjoying making backgrounds with my Graph'Its, this was made by just scribbling my markers onto the background not worrying too much about blending and then dripping on Mix'It Fluid using the end of the spray tube from the bottle. The White Graph'It Shake pen is perfect for adding snow and the Silver Shake pen gives a little frosty sparkle
I've just added a sentiment stamp from Chocolate Baroque, stamped in Memento Rhubarb Stalk ink and matted the image on white and then red card.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
Addicted to stamps and more: make your mark
A Snowflake Promise: anything goes
Crafting by Designs: get ready for Christmas
Crafting with an attitude: anything goes
Paper Minutes: Snow
Southern Girls: Stripes
Star Stampz: add a sentiment
Thanks so much for visiting today
