Day 19. Coloring Cards

Hello Friends, How was your Saturday ? Boy oh boy the days are flying by. Today it’s Day 19!
When you need something quick and want to color something pretty and easy … I find myself reaching for Simon Says Stamp watercoloring cards. When it was finished and dry I trimmed, mounted it & added a twine bow that I colored.
I took out my watercolors and heat set this so I could add triangles, lines and of course white dots.
My card and video for yesterday finally did go live and all systems a go. Thanks for your sweet and encouraging comments. Click here to see my window card with mixed media and the video.
Have a great day! 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 premise of “The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge” is to color something everyday even if it’s for five minutes. (However feel free to  jump in or out as time permits). Any coloring medium is welcomed.

    This is so colorful and cheery, it can’t help but make you smile!!! Since I color in adult coloring books on a daily basis, I enjoy your 30 day challenges. I find it so relaxing, and I’m surprised at how my shading has improved with practice.

    Thank you so much for your inspiration. 🙂
