Hello!
Kathy Racoosin is hostessing her 10th 30 Day Coloring Challenge all this month. And I've been able to participate every day, in one form or another. Thank you, summer break from work and school! I have been sharing my efforts on my Instagram account, but wanted to share with you a few of the coloring projects I've worked on. I'll do my best to share more during the second half of the challenge. It's a lot of fun and if you only have 5 minutes to color, go for it. It's just for fun and to give you some "me" time to relax.
Anyway, in no particular order, here are a few projects. I've been practicing my Copic coloring by following videos of different artists and CASEing the cards they share.
Here I cased Mayra's cards. She is so talented! I know I've sung her praises here before.
On this card, I cased Eloise Blue and used Sunny Studio Stamps. These kiddos make me smile.
Here is was playing with some shimmery watercolors I bought at Hobby Lobby. The mermaid theme works so well for this time of the year. This is a panel from Carolee's Creations Art Play Paintables, that I found here at Scrapbook dot com. Too bad this shot doesn't fully show just how shimmery this Master's Touch Metallic Semi Color Cake Paint Set is. You can find this watercolor product in Hobby Lobby stores and it is very affordable. The purple pink color looks iridescent to me. So fun!
And finally, here are some adorable Viking Kids I found at CC Designs. They come in stamps or digital. I bought the digital format. I was inspired by a wonderful video by Laura Volpes. She colored her images with different markers, but I played and practiced with my Copics. I really enjoy watching Laura's videos. She does a great job showing what she is creating, but I also enjoy her accent. I don't own the powders she used to make the backgrounds, but they look pretty fun!
That's it for me today. I hope you have a wonderful weekend and I really appreciate your stopping by.
Hugs,

I'm so enjoying your peeks of these, but had to see the finished projects, Jeanne! I am telling you, girlfriend, your Copic skills are outstanding! I love the mermaid tail, and your HL inks, and all those little kids... but still especially VIKE the Viking Kids - hope to have a moment to watch that video!
Incredible!
