Saturated Canary Challenge #51

OOOo late again sorry!

We have a good one for you over at Saturated Canary Challenges this fortnight....the fab Ruby gave us the challenge to use a "Colouring Technique", so No lines, fancy backgrounds......you get the idea?

Now the details....

You must use either a:

Saturated Canary Digi,

Saturated Canary rubber stamp,

or Simply Sassy rubber stamp

Now I have to admit I kinda freaked a bit when I saw the No lines as I have only tried it maybe once or twice...and I know I could have gone for a fancy background but I like to challenge myself! lol I chose Mousey Mo (little secret...chose this one has she only has one eye showing and that seems to be the bit that I struggle with...shhhhh don't tell) I was cross-eyed by the time I had finished....you certainly have to concentrate!

I took sooooo long to colour her that I decided to let her be the main focus of the card and kept the rest pretty simple....

We have had drama here this past week.......Jude was sitting on a fence at the local playground chatting to her pals and fell off....resulting in a broken wrist!! For those who follow my blog...the SAME one she broke and dislocated last year.....I was so scared that she had dislocated the elbow again cos that would have meant a trip to Inverness to get it pinned....eeek! But thankfully it is a small break and she will get the stookie......scots word for cast ;0).......off on the 16th!

Hugs

Saturated Canary Challenge #50

OOPs I still had this post in Drafts not scheduled! Apologies!

We have hit Challenge number 50!!! And this fortnight it is Rebekah's turn to choose a theme...

"Winged Things"

so anything with wings!!

Now the details....

You must use either a:

Saturated Canary Digi,

Saturated Canary rubber stamp,

or Simply Sassy rubber stamp

I have used Catching Butterflies....now I made this card a while back for this challenge and when I made it she was in the shop, but unfortunately she has been retired.

She has been coloured with my Copics....the papers are all from my scrap box with a little bit of doodling and those yummy butterflies are clear acetate ones which I coloured with my pens...
