Day 16. No Line Coloring Quick Video

Helllloooo friends! It’s me again and I hope you aren’t getting tired of my posts. Today for Day 16. it’s got to be quickish post.

I finished my coloring from yesterday using WPlus9 beautiful “Kind Soul” stamp. I stamped the image with a soft pastel ink and seriously any pastel will work.

Honestly it’s the work of a sharp pencil. Right now this is what I am using to get that pencil tip sharp and using a light hand is key.

Lots and lots of pretty pencil shavings. I found a great sale on the colored pencils and they are a bit pricy but, they made a great Christmas gift to  myself.

Saturday I have a long video showing more colored pencil work with lots of explanations. Today’s video is just quick to show the process. Have an awesome day and see you tomorrow. Hugs, Kathy

P.S. Click here for DAY 1. TO UPLOAD YOUR COLORING on my blog or here on Instagram or here on Facebook (it’s a closed group). Please remember to use the hashtag #thedailymarker30day and for kids & young adults #thedailymarker30daykids

P.S.S. If you have any questions about the coloring challenge you can refer to this post and see my  video here.

    The coloring is amazing, as always. I learn so much from you. I would also like to get information on the sentiment stamp which would fit the kinds of cards I send to people going through difficult times.

      https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Wplus9-KIND-SOUL-Clear-Stamps-CLWP9KS-CLWP9KS?currency=USD The sentiment I used for this card came with the floral stamp. Kindness word stamps are done by many companies. Here two examples. Don’t forget you can cut sentiments and add or delete words. My dear friend Jennifer McGuire does it all the time.

        Thanks for the info, Kathy. I specifically liked that particular sentiment’s design but appreciate the other recommendations which I’ll check out. Having taken in-store classes from both you and Jen a few years ago, I learned that you are generous, amazing women in addition to being talented ones. I’ve watched you both grow in creativity and execution and am grateful for your willingness to share with others.

    OMG Kathy I feel I have missed so much, we had an awesome weekend with all the kids and grandkids, I had a surgical procedure on my back done on monday and here it is Wednesday and I am just getting a chance to catch up. Oh my how time flies. Love your pencil work. I always want results quickly and don’t take time with my pencils. Need to work on that.
