BUT....uptown gal Quinn wears her UGGS is not only fashionable but does not appear to be afraid to stand in snow with them. She is braver than I am that's for sure!
I think this is my FAV uptown girl. Now I love them ALL, but this one really speaks to me and I think it is because of what she is wearing....I would dress like that. heck I do dress like that! Since my UGGS are dark brown, I had to colour hers dark brown too, and her coat had to match...because Quinn would not have it any other way. Now for the other colours....hmmmm.....what to wear with brown? In my opinion anything goes....for me, brown is like black, anything goes. So that is when I went to my paper stash and decided on green to go with this basic grey ambrosia paper. Good choice I thought...after all, I would wear that. In the end she turned out exactly as I had envisioned her. Classy, sassy, and sophisticated! I LOVE those uptown girls!

Oh My, beautiful card! The colours are just perfect Linda, love the brown and greens- I need this stamp! Your shading is superb!!!
This is absolutely gorgeous! Love the way you coloured her and I love that dp.
I definitely prefer sketch challenges. I do love what you've done with this uptown girl. I've got to get me some.
hi Linda! this is just PERFECT ofcourse! I would like to see a challenge that calls for using one image in 3 different ways, or 3 diff cards. I think it would be great inspiration :) Happy Fall! jane w.
Love it! I love the shading and the colours! This stamp could be used for a Happy Birthday card as well which gives it double duty.
As for challenges. I like the sketches because when I make my own cards I just wing it and make them up as I go along so having to use a sketch is out of my comfort zone. It gives me a challenge for sure.

three words...can you guess what they are?
Beautiful winter card and fabulous colouring xoxo
Love your colours Linda, absolutley gorgus my friend !!
Absolutely stunning.....I love your color....I know I said that ever time...but your just so talented....
Answer.....I personally love color challenges......two or three colors....it's always a challenge putting colors together....
Like always your cards are beautiful.
I like color challenges.
Oh this is stunning - the colours and shading are perfection
Sketch challenges are my favorite so I wouldn't change a thing. Fabulous coloring as always Linda, soooo wish I lived closer and could take some classes!
your coloring is gorgeous!
I too enjoy the sketch challenges, helps me think outside the box.
What a great card! I love the colour scheme and the shading is perfection, as always.
I love the challenges, even if I don't always get a chance to play along. I'd like to see one where the challenge is to use a stamp in an unexpected way.
WOWzer - I chose Quinn too! You've done a stellar job!!!
The colors you chose are rediculous, that's redic in a good way ofcourse. I LOVE HER!! You really are an ispiration there Lindabella. As for a cheallenge? hmmm, maybe some odd colors that you normally would not put together but you do just to see if you think they would work??? It might turn out interesting?
Thanks as always for your posts!.
Your card rocks - as always!! You know I love your style - but really must comment more often!!
I love the idea of having more sketches, but also would love the challenge of "using the same stamp for 3 or four different challenges in a row", but make them for different occasions (for example, I have used Eunice and Irving for an anniversary card, for a Valentines Day card, and then for Christmas). It would be fun to see everyone stretch their imaginations, and also to get so many more ideas to use with all of the different stamps!!
Just LOVE those Uptown Girls... Your coloring is always INSPIRING! As for challenges... I like to see something with embellishments such as ribbon or bling or eyelets, brads etc.. I also like when you have to use a certain amount of different pattern papers or just a single layer card.
Its me again! a fun challenge would be NO GREEN or RED for a Christmas card!
Linda, you're incredible, I'm a big fan! Awesome colouring!
hugs, Alina
Beautiful artwork!! Absolutely beautiful! Those markers are putty in your hands!
I like sketch or Bingo or technique challenges.
Your cards are beautiful!
I love a good colour challenge - unusual combinations of three or more colours are always challenging.
Great card Linda.....Love this image. I love doing challenges...just find time is often of essence...Need to retire and do this full time.. that is what I would LOVE. Anyway colour challenges and layout challenges are always tops for me. Saves me time because most of the background work is already done for you.
Love, love, love how you colored her! The uptown girls are my favorite new collection and you've given this image such life! I'm super impressed.
As for the challenges suggestions, here's what I would like to see: make a card where any of the Bella character is a redhead! I like to give my girls red hair and always say that if I don't, who will? How cool would it be to see a page full of redheads during a challenge week! :D
Honestly I am in awe of your colouring!!! You rock and so does this card!
