30-Day Coloring Challenge Part 2: Day 6 & 7

challenge_graphic-June-650Hello Everyone! So here I am on day 8 while others are doing day 10. I decided on Friday that I would change the rules a bit to accomodate my crazy June schedule. I will not be posting my coloring challenge posts on the weekends. I will only do it on the week days. Since weekends are for my family, this will work out better. I refuse to feel bad for changing the rules a bit. So my end date will be beyond June 30th.

I did color Monday but it was for my ATC swap and I can’t reveal all here so you will have to trust me.

Yesterday I did color up these cute elephants. I plan to use them on a magnetic bookmarkers.  I used my Copics to color them.  It’s good practice for me working with grays to create shading.

day7

I will be back later with something I color today and that will be day 8.

Happy coloring!

30-Day Coloring Challenge Part 2: Day 5

challenge_graphic-June-650Hello Everyone! Day 5 here and I am going strong.  This is no easy thing this time of year but I am giving it my all.  Today, I was once again inspired by Kathy and pulled out my newest coloring book I had bought a few weeks back from Barnes and Noble on the bargain table.  It has all sorts of Mandalas to color and I have been fascinated with them for years and thought I would give it a go. The paper quality isn’t the best for my copics so I used my Ranger distress and StampinUp markers.

day5aThey do seem a bit daunting at first but once you start coloring it’s not so bad. It’s just picking the initial colors that took a few minutes. Of course it helped that I have a limited number of distress and stampinUp markers. Nothing like my Copic collection that I love so much.

day5bI chose this one to color first because it had butterflies in it.

day5cI don’t think you have to finish these in one sitting and although I would like to, I have other work and I had to post this so I stopped here. I will be sure to share the final piece.

Happy coloring and have a blessed weekend!!

Belinda
