Welcome to the first Kenny K's Krafty Girlz Challenge!!




Hello, I am thrilled you have stopped by and I want to welcome you to the first ever Kenny K's Krafty Girlz Challenge! Be sure to bookmark Kenny K's Krafty Girlz Challenge Blog and visit frequently. Every Sunday we will announce a new challenge complete with fabulous prizes. You'll find all the details on the challenge blog. Have you visited the Kenny K download site yet? Get over there now and give it a serious look around. You'll find all the super cool Kenny K digis for sale, and also lots of card inspiration from the uber-talented Design Team. These gals ROCK!

This week we are challenging you to create a card using pastels. Pastels are wonderful for depicting "fun in the sun" scenes, beautiful floral delights, and enjoying sherbet on a warm day. Because of that last item, I opted to color up Troublemaker thinking she would look fabulous adorned in pastels. She was a blast to color as are all of the Kenny K images. I tried something a little different with her hoodie. I actually colored it up in olives, but then took my colorless blender and removed a lot of the color except for the shaded areas. I then replaced the color I removed with a lighter yellow. I rather like the way it turned out. You can scroll to the bottom of this post for a list of the Copics used in this project.

Well, that's it for me. Head over to the challenge blog to see what my talented krafty cohorts have been up to and get more information about this week's challenge and prizes!

hair - E35, E31, Y11
skin - E02, E00, E000, E02

    Cheryl, I love your card. Your coloring is fabulous and the orange on the shoes is perfect. I struggle with shoe colors, never have been a shoe person. And congrats on your new furbaby, Titus is adorable.
