PCJ Colour it Up challenge with some changes on the way!!!


Oh I am so late with this post!! I have been busy doing bookwork for my sister all week, there was a teachers strike at school yesterday so kids were home and today I had to work.. I really need to learn to pre schedule my posts as I have been super organised with getting my cards made just not posting them!!!
 Anyway, yesterday saw the start of a new challenge at Paper Crafting Journey and the challenge is to Colour it Up! Yep nice and easy.. we want to see your wonderful colouring skills this time around!!
We are being sponsored by Inked Treasures and the lucky winner will win 4 digis of their choice!!!
I finally coloured up a Saturated Canary image Ellies' Party for my card!!


I made a side easel card and for a change didn't follow a sketch - yep I used my own creative brain this time!!I coloured Ellie's party in with Tria markers and used kindy glitz on her hat and glitter pen on parts of Ellie's clothing!!All the SB paper and sentiments are from the happy Days paper pad from Simple Stories!! To finish off the card I added the ribbon (that was tied around a packet of tea towels :) ) and buttons then added kindyglitz here and there!!
Now before I go I did mention some changes were on the way!! Well the lovely Lisa - Blog owner and DT co-ordinator of PCJ has decided to step down as the joy of running the blog is no longer with her so .... Wendy put up her hand to keep the challenge blog going and has taken over ownership!! Lisa is staying on as a DT member so that is wonderful. We have also had a few DT members leave us - Suzie, Jessie, Hilde and Laura. I am going to miss them as three of the girls have been a part of PCJ for as long as I have and we have become a little family!!  I wish all you girls well  and will see you in blog land I'm sure!!
So as of next challenge our challenge blog will be back on blogger and in the coming months there will be a few more changes!! So stick with us cos there's lots more fun to be had!!!
I am entering this card into the following challenges:
* Saturated Canary - Anything Goes

* Pretty Little Ribbon Shop - Lots of Layers
