My Time to Create Challenge...MTCC02


I LOVE Lauren's My Time to Color Challenge this weekend (MTCC02)! The colors are soooo fresh :O) I just bought this stamp from My Favorite Things...it's my first one from their company. I loved coloring it! There are so many possible color combinations. I used markers and an aqua painter on watercolor paper.

The layout is actually from one of her sketch challenges a short while ago that I didn't try out (mytimess27). I thought it was perfect for this image! Speaking of Lauren's past sketch challenges...I compiled all of them in one album (from the first one she labeled for the online galleries). I also started albums for the new challenges...you can check them out using the links in my left sidebar.

I share this to encourage you to explore your creativity not only from today's color challenge, but maybe also from some of the past challenges! There is no time limit...you can participate anytime :O)

Check out the Design Team's sneak peeks:
Be sure to swing by their blogs to see their creations! I can't wait to see what they've come up with.

Hope you can play along! Be sure to link your creation on Lauren's blog under the Mr. Linky application so that we can admire your work :O)
Have a SAFE, relaxing, Memorial Day weekend.

Kristin this is beautiful. Your coloring is fabulous and the image is adorable. I love that you used a previous sketch, too. I love to go back to my notebook of sketches for inspiration. Way to rock this challenge! Thanks again for all your hard work in the forum too - it's a wonderful tool for us. Hope all the girls will start to use it. Hugs n smiles.

If you refer to the "Best Wishes" I stamp it with JustRight stamps. The patterned paper is from Imaginisce.
By the way, thank you for your comment!!

This is adorable, your watercolouring is fantastic. I really like the shading of the yellow on the wall. And what a great idea to use a past sketch.
