myasperations 7-30-21

It’s Friday and time for the Colour Crazy Challenge which is “Anything Goes” but adds a requirement; the creation needs to include coloring in “any colouring medium you like, onto any project you like, and in any colours you like.” I’ve never outgrown my love for coloring… which is why making cards is stress therapy for me!! 
This week's sponsor is Sheepski Designs and my DT card features a yummy digi image named Birthday Cocktail. I colored the colorful drink with Spectrum Noir Classique Markers and a Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen. A variation of a Z-fold card plus photo corners, and circle sentiment from my scrapbook stash finish the festive card!  
I’m entering this card into several challenges including Outlawz Tuesday Color Challenge- TicTacToe (Top Row- white photo corners on the inside resemble the white hearts, card features a beverage, and includes a rainbow of colors.)      
Supplies: 
·   Digi- Sheepski Designs (Birthday Cocktail)
·   Colored with Spectrum Noir Classique markers and Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen
·   Instructions for Z-fold card can be found HERE.
·   Inside Sentiment from my scrapbook stash.
·   Yellow photo corners available from several web sources (WXJ13 13 Sheets 13 Colors Photo Mounting Corners)
·   All other items from my stash.

Crafty Hazelnut’s Patterned Paper Challenge- July                        

I was thrilled when Kris Breach, artist/owner of Imagine That Digistamps started offering monthly challenges again! I served on Kris’ DT before she took some time off and I always enjoyed working with her… and creating with her wonderful artwork.  She now offers Progressive Challenge each month. The July digi set named We Three Mice is a perfect fit for all the wonderful Christmas in July challenges occurring right now. It contains four line digis, one colored digi and five sentiments for just $3.25. If you enter a card into this month’s challenge using any digis and sentiments from the set, you’ll get next month's digi set for free! But hurry, the challenge ends on the 31st. Check here for details! 
For my card I used a Z-fold base, galaxy paper and torn cardstock. I colored the images with markers and gel pens. A few crown stickers and assorted rhinestones add bling and luster to the royal trio and the Christmas star!
I’m entering this card into several challenges including Incy Wincy Designs (there is the sparkle of the Christmas star, Kings crowns and gems, plus the sparkling night sky resembles glitter!)
