Hi Everyone,
The weekend has rolled around again and we know what that means? COLOURING time!! hehehe
What a fantastic turnout for our Shadows and Depth challenge. It’s amazing how just some added shading can really make an image ‘pop’!
Don’t forget to stop back Tuesday to see who the winner will be PLUS of course we will have our Tuesday Tip!
I have a little sad news to start us off today.
One of our gorgeous teamies Sandy has decided to step down. She is as crazy busy as I am and something had to give way. Sandy started back on the team when I first begun Make it Crafty Learning challenges last year and has been a wonderful asset to this team and a wonderful friend to me. (Of course we will still be friends!!) We have all grown to love you Sandy and you will be missed but you haven’t gone far! Wishing you all the best in your craft endeavours!! Big Squeezes! xxooo

The Challenge!
This week we want you to practice SMOOOOTH colouring and create gradients.
So when you colour dark to light try and keep a very smooth transition between each shade of colour.
You might even like to try gradients between different colours.
How about a personal challenge of creating a real rainbow??
Just blend the colours Red to Orange to Yellow to Green to Blue to Indigo to Violet
I tell ya what, if you attempt to create a ‘real’ rainbow in your creation I just might throw in some more prizes!!
IMPORTANT !!
This is a COLOURING challenge not just a colour challenge.
Entries not following the rules will not be eligible to win prizes. If you are at all confused about whether your entry will qualify, please contact us first.
