This Saturday I am participating in
Make It Colourful Challenge a very first time. We have different themes every time and the whole point is that your project needs to incorporate your colouring! It doesn't matter what medium you are using (Copics, pencils, watercolours etc) as long as you follow the theme and link to a new card.
The theme is
Vintage Photo - Monochrome, Black/White, Sepia this time.
Here's to my snarky side!
I am using the
40's Apron Ad from A Day From Daisies and the background is
The Kitchen Wall from Make it Crafty. The background paper is created with a retired set from Kim Hughes called Little Gal.
The flower was created from a torn strip of muslin. I also ran a running stitch around the card to give it a bit of definition.
Copics used:
N9/7/5/3/1/0, 0
Challenges:
Alphabet Challenge - “L" is for "Ladies"; include a lady on your project
Daring Cardmakers - make a card for yourself
Stamp Insanity - use your favourite colour and go monochrome (neutral grey is a range I use on almost ALL my copic coloured images!)
Crafts and Me (2 weeks) - monochrome
Craft Your Passion - Button up
Crazy Challenge (2 entries) - Buttons
Thanks for looking and happy crafting!
Hugs

I LOVE this Annika! The sentiment is hysterical and perfect! A little different card from your normal, but very good! Monochromatic can be tricky, but you did if beautifully! Love the ribbon and the flower too!
This is awesome. I've been playing with colouring in black and white and it's not a patch on this. My sepia atempt will go up next week. Anyway, have a fab weekend. xxx
