30 Day Coloring Challenge Day 30!!!

Yippee!!!  This is the final day of the 30 Day Coloring Challenge and I made it through!!  It was both easier and harder than I thought it would be.  I still have a lot to learn about coloring with my Spectrum Noir markers, but I've learned that I learn best through using them.  How about that?!  There are definitely some color combos that I need to work on blending.  The lighter shades are easier than the dark ones.  I know paper matters greatly. So do inks. And, of course, I need new and more stamps to color - LOL!!

I discovered this darling free digital image of peeps for Easter  (here). I have wanted a stamp of peeps for ages, and somehow never got around to ordering one.  I added the bow tie.  It's from a Waffle Flower set called Congrats.

I am so glad that I stepped out of my comfort zone to take part in Kathy's 30 Day Coloring Challenge.  I had my ups and downs, but overall I truly enjoyed it.  I do feel that my skills are improving.  I'm determined to keep getting better.

30 Day Coloring Challenge Day 29

So today is day 29 of the 30 Day Coloring Challenge.  I colored some images from a Recollections stamp set that is years old.  I used another robot in this set once, I think.  Other than that, the set has just been on a shelf, unused.  I have been seeing the galaxy background on blogs which brought these images to mind.  I'd like to give that a try and use my space images.

These small images were cute and fun.  I definitely want to do something with them.  One more day to go, folks!!

30 Day Coloring Challenge Day 28

This darling little bunny in a tea cup is a free digi from Craftin' Desert Divias that I picked up a couple of days ago.  I'm not sure if it's still free, but you can check the site.  It's called Bunny Latte.  Isn't it the cutest thing?  I have entered it in Day 28 at the 30 Day Coloring Challenge - yippee!

I used my Spectrum Noir markers, then cut it out after dusting around the image with yellow chalk.  I just laid it atop the snippet of paper in order to take the picture. I believe the paper is digital paper that I used on another project some years back.

30 Day Coloring Challenge Day 27

These little flowers are my Day 27 project for the 30 Day Coloring Challenge.  They are part of a Sizzix/Graphic 45 set that includes a tea pot, tea cup and a spoon with matching dies for all.  The set was a gift from my son a few years ago.  I've used the teapot stamp before, but never the flowers.

I will use the dies to cut out these flowers and make a card.  I'll be sure to show you when I do.  I hope you're able to do some crafting and/or coloring today.  Make it a great one!

30 Day Coloring Challenge Day 26

Welcome to my Day 26 post for the 30 Day Coloring Challenge. I had a very busy day, so I am very grateful to have gotten a chance to color a bit tonight.  For a while, I thought I might not make it!

I colored two small images from a Recollections set.  There are matching dies for the flamingo and pineapple.  I just finished coloring them a little while ago, and I'll be darned if I can find the set now to tell you the name.  What's up with that?!

I can see myself working with these images more.  It's a cute set and will make some fun cards.  I hope you have a good week.

30 Day Coloring Challenge Day 25 - Amazing!!  I colored some Easter images for today.  The stamps are retired Close to My Heart.  They're small, but perfect for the season.

I must go now.  Our grandnieces are spending the night with us, and I'm dancing tomorrow.  Enjoy your weekend!

30 Day Coloring Challenge Day 24

Welcome to my Day 24 project for the 30 Day Coloring Challenge.  Wow, it will be all over in just under a week.  Amazing!  I chose a digital rose from a free site.  I'm sorry, but again, I don't know exactly where I got it, but I do know it was free.  I apologize to the artist.

This image has a lot of shading already, making it easy to color.  I cut it out with a Sizzix die so it is ready to pop on a card base.  Love it!!
