August Classic Design Challenge : Fred She Said Designs & Sheepski Designs

 Good morning and welcome back to another fun monthly Classic Challenge! This month we have a fun surprise, because we're featuring TWO digital artists, and as always, our theme is : Anything Goes.

This month, we're featuring samples from both Fred She Said Digital Designs and Sheepski Digital Designs.

I chose to feature Emma in the Strawberry Patch from Fred She Said Designs, and Beach Hut Holiday from Sheepski Designs. Both are equally well drawn, and so fun and easy to color in. Sometimes you just want an image that's easy to color in that makes a big impact, and these two do it for me.

First one up is Emma in the Strawberry Patch, from Fred She Said.

I decidedly chose to keep her simple and followed the same coloring format too, by coloring her with less drama, trying to keep it soft and fresh. The first attempt I made at coloring it in resulted in too much color and drama, and felt it detracted from the cute and over all innocence the image is portraying. So everything was kept light after that.

Next is Beach Hut Holiday by Sheepski.

Isn't this a great image of a beach and boat houses all in a row? I grew up in Northern Minnesota, so I've always loved a lake front beach, and this scene is the best! I can just see myself enjoying a good book, with a tall iced tea, and a popsicle, after I wade in the water looking for neat rocks.

I kept this card clean and simple just to keep the focus on the image. The sentiment is from an old MFT travel stamp set, and the stitched diecut rectangle cutting out the main scene is the only adornment I gave it. 

I am also entering my card in the following challenges :

1. Anything Goes - Word Art Wednesday
