Hello Friends, How have you been? I hope that you haven’t been experiencing the wacky and not so good weather happening around the globe.
This month Jenn Shurkus is celebrating her 10th anniversary of blogging and she asked me & many others to help her celebrate her “Blogiversary” every Tuesday of this month…such fun!
Jenn’s blog “Creative Chick” has lots of inspiration and lots of ways to celebrate on her blog. In celebration I have two stamps sets of my own from The Ton to give away. More on that below.
This was the tag above that Jenn used and I used her tag as my jumping board. My tags were hand cut by me with this kraft cardstock.
As I mentioned I used two stamp sets from The Ton. They sent me their flower stamps because they know how much I love flowers and I have TWO extra STAMPS to giveaway…WOO HOO
A big thanks to The Ton! All you need to do is leave me a quick hello in the comment area and I will pick two winners (each to win one stamp set) Winners will be announced August 5th.
After I was almost finished watercoloring I thought to turn on the video so I have one and a half flowers to share with you. Maybe you will pick up a tip?
To watch the video in HD click here. Speaking of videos thanks for the overwhelming amount of love for my “unedited videos” you guys really know how to cheer someone up. Going forward the”thumbs down” people are NOT going to bother me any more so a big THANKS TO YOU ALL for helping me change my attitude!! 🙂
A little masking and some bright watercolor paper makes the Zig clean color markers really stand out. The sentiment is from Paper Smooches “Bold Buzz Words“.
Some white dots with a gel pen, white ink and a white colored pencil are the tiny extras on my tags.
Just in case you want the colors of the Zig that I used today. Thanks so much for your votes in my last post and it’s looking like OCTOBER will be the next coloring challenge. Don’t worry you don’t have to wait that long but, I will give more details in my next post so I don’t confuse everyone 🙂 Have a great day and thanks for your visit. Hugs, Kathy
P.S. You can help Jenn celebrate and by participating & you will chance to win some fabulous prizes! (see the sponsors above) Go to Jenn’s blog to read how to participate etc. You will have until Aug 4th to participate and all winners will be announced august 7th on Jenn’s blog for her giveaways.

Sheri K says
Great tags Kathy! And thanks for the tip to enter parade mag’s coloring contest, I submitted 2 of the free pages they offered, colored. I do have a question I asked earlier–concerning water color paints and markers. Many have talked about the “wonders” of kuretake water colors and zig color brush markers. I have a set of distress markers, copics (not all-good representation), I have Grumbacher translucent and opaque pan water colors, I’ve started to collect a few gelatos. I do enjoy coloring and stamping, but of course I don’t do this for a living and budget is always a concern. How do the Kuretake Gansaie tambi paints compare with Grumbacher? Are they better or so much different that you would highly recommend them? Same with the zig markers–I understand the brush makes it different, but color wise are they better or more useful than the Distress markers? Thanks so much for you input–I’m researching art products that I may want to put on my “wish list” for upcoming gift ideas. My daughter moves in about a week, so distracting myself. Also, thanks for the photo’s of ND on your travels, we’re planning a road trip to my “home land” (MN) in a few weeks, of course stopping to visit the newest Iowa residents! Thanks for your help!
Kathy Racoosin says
I have never used the Grumbacher paints so I can’t comment. I do love the Kuretake Gansaie Tambi paints for their vibrancy and blendability. The Zigs are more vibrant colors than Distressed markers. Zigs are clean color without a distressed look.
Patty says
The video was wonderful. I just bought the zig markers and enjoy your tutorials.
Lydia says
My gosh Kathy … your colouring always takes my breath away! It looks like I need some more Zig pens lol x
The Crafty Den says

You can wake up to me everyday in October.Join me for the 3rd 30 Day Coloring Challenge starting October 1st. Mark your calendar and get your supplies ready. Thank you for your kind words. 🙂 Hope you’re feeling better.
Joey H. says
Yes, I am feeling better but I can say that MS will be a part of my life until there is a cure. Creating always helps me escape. Instead of being born with a silver spoon in my mouth, I was born with a paintbrush in my hand. Its the joy in my life. Thanks again, Kathy!

Okay, now to comment on those tags that you made. I love the coloring! I also love flowers and all the colors you used. I also love how they remind me of the bookmarks I make and sell. They are so much fun to do, it’s just to bad that people read e-books more then regular books so they aren’t buying a lot of bookmarks. I wish I had started making them sooner! Thanks again for something new for me to do with my stamps! As always, I pass these on to friends. I belong to 2 card making groups on-line and a craft and chat board. They love these!

Hello Kathy,
Love your tags. The colors are just beautiful. The black stitching outline
goes so well.
Looking forward to October!
Do you think it’s a good idea to stamp a lot of images in advance
with different inks?

Tracey Magner says
Hi Kathy, Beautiful Tags, Love the flowers, like you I could color flowers all day. I know I am probably too late for the giveaway,I was really sick and just now getting on my computer, quite shocked with over 400 emails ( mostly junk ones ) thankfully. Don’t want to rush anyone’s summer but so looking forward to October and our 3rd challenge.
Marykay says
My word. Tons of comments wantin g to win a stamp set from The Ton. Yes punt intended.
That’s something I don’t have a lot of is flower stamps. I seem to have mostly collected people and ephemera type stamps.
I definitely need some flower stamps.
I too cannot wait U til October for the next coloring challenge. They are fun. Well it was fun as the last one was my 1st one. Im setting date in my calendar so I don’t miss. Also I’m sure you will remind us. Thanks again
Kathleen says
Just beautiful work on these color combinations on these flowers ! Thank you for teChing us how to color better with watercolor markers.

Marykay says
Wow now that is some pretty flowers as well as pretty coloring. I bet whoever won that stamp set was happy happy happy. I would have been. How you get so lucky to have someone send you coloring fun like that.? That would be awesome. Flowers are my fav to color too. I don’t have any real ‘flower’ stamps. I have a few whimsical flower stamps but none that resemble real flowers yet like those. Very pretty. Thanks again for sharing.
Vicki L. says
These tags are gorgeous!! What brilliant colors. Winning either stamp set would be a blessing. Thanks for sharing.
