Hello friends! Welcome to Day 2 and “The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge” Blog Hop. Excited! Giddy! Inspired …that’s what I am feeling and I am so happy that you all are here today! My favorite stamp companies & my favorite Online Class “OnLine Card Classes” (also known as OCC) partners are joining us for the hop too. Mixing stamp companies on a card is one of my most favorite things to do … that was the inspiration behind the hop and all these beautiful company’s hopping together brings me so much joy.
If you are new to the coloring challenge read on if not …. skip to the photos 🙂
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. 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
If you have any questions about the coloring challenge you can refer to this post and see my video here. If you want to get my posts in your mailbox you can sign up here.
To watch the video using Copics and colored pencil accents click here.
When you get to the Simon Says Stamp blog you will find photos of my card but, I wanted to share the video here. Mixing different brands brings me so much joy and for this project I used Simon Says Stamps “Cups & Succulents” and Stamping Bella’s “Thinking of You” . The scale is of these two stamp sets are perfect together and I love them both so much. I had so much fun making this card and adding lots of patterns and detail. The background stamp is awesome and I can’t wait to give it center stage. It’s aptly named “Topography” from Neat & Tangled.
My second video … was created for The Stamping Bella blog (one of my regular features there) and you will find the photos to this watercolored card but, again …. I wanted to share the video here for you. Concord & 9th spectacular butterflies had the perfect symmetry for Stamping Bella’s “AlmostElla” Danielle Donaldson collection. The bold colors from Tombow’s watercolor markers are easy to use and vibrant.
GIVEAWAYS: You will find lots of generous giveaways along the hop. The full list of ALL winners from the individual blogs will be announced here on Sunday March 12th.
My giveaway is over $100.00 the prize package includes 5 stamp sets, 2 die cuts, ink, sequins, matte medium and this beautiful illustrated bag and kangaroo pouch. TO QUALIFY all you need to do is say “Hello” in the comment area on my blog. Super easy.
Here is the full hop list and if you encounter a broken link please come back here to get to the next blog.

Loved your videos today, fabulous coloring!! So excited for this new challenge! I enjoy every day seeing what everyone is creating! ❤
Just joined! Hello! Enjoyed watching you color today!
Yay! Welcome Tracey! 🙂
Hello Kathy!
THANK YOU for doing this challenge!!! I look forward to this every time you host it, and I really needed it this month. I’m having to adjust my creative time a bit due to health and have been a little discouraged that I can’t get as much done or done as quickly as I used to. The last two days, I colored an image and it turned out so well I wanted to cry. It took me probably 20 times longer to finish than it would have even 2 months ago, but that was ok. I could color bits at a time and just enjoy it. So thank you from the bottom of my heart!
You’re so welcome Kim! I hope you feel better soon! 🙂
HELLO LADIES!!! I’m so glad I found this site through Jennifer Mc AWESOME!!!
Thank you for the opportunity!!!!
HAPPY CRAFTING
Yay, happy you’re here! Enjoy coloring!

I have had a very hard time getting in a creative mood lately. I have always followed your 30 Day challenges but never participated. I am going to participate in your challenge and hopefully i can get inspired. I entered on Facebook today. Thanks so much for your inspiration, everything you do is absolutely beautiful
Welcome Janet. Glad you’re playing along with us now! Happy you are making time for you!
Well hello! Let the coloring games begin! Thanks for the push to do some coloring every day! So much fun and inspiring to see everyone’s stuff.
Hello!
HI, Kathy!
Usually I’m not one to comment much (that’s a good one, I hear my hubby say!) but this is a huuuuuuuuge THANK YOU for getting my creative juices flowing. The Daily Marker 30 days is really something I enjoy and get things back into perspective. It also helps me to release inner pressure and get away from the urge for perfection. You are so awesome in organizing the challenge. Thanks again and hugs
I am so happy you are making time for you! Thank you for the super compliment!
HELLO!
‘Hello, Bonjour, and Aloha’…thanks for the generous giveaway.

Hi, Kathy, I love your coloring. Thanks so much for doing this challenge and blog hop. It is always so inspiring.
Hello Kathy, I took a page from Jennifer McGuire and have been coloring the big zen stamp from Honey Bee. The flowers can be colored with a variety of colors so no two look the same. Thanks for sharing your inspiration. And thank you for the chance to win.
Love your cups and succulents card! Love how you add extra lines and dots to everything, makes it so much more interesting 🙂
Hello, hello, hello! Both of these cards are lovely! I especially love the second one! It combines 2 of my favorite things, water coloring and butterflies! I will be posting my coloring for the day shortly on IG!
So glad that I am going to be able to participate for this month’s coloring challenge! I am hoping to post some of Jenna’s coloring projects also!
See you tomorrow for another fun post!

Hello. 🙂 Lovely cards!
Kathy I love how you colored the little girl, you really made come alive.
Hello. Took a while to drag down to the bottom to leave this “hello”. Plan to do some coloring again. Have a new coloring book I picked up at the dollar store.
Hello!
Hello! The coloring challenge is an awesome idea. Glad I found out about it. I like to color to de-stress and it helps to focus my hands that shake naturally.
Welcome Stacy. Happy you found me and the challenge!
Hello. Awesome videos. Thanks for all the tips. You Rock
Hello! You have inspired me to color using all the methods you showed on your video. Can’t wait for my color crafting weekend to begin! Thank you 🙂
Great job!
Hello! Coloring is fun.
Hello, late in the card game but love making them. Thanks for your videos and techniques

Always a beautiful job. I do have a question, what type of inks do you stamp with for copics and also for watercoloring? I always have a problem with ink bleeding while I’m coloring.
Hi Bobbie. For Copics I use Memento tuxedo black ink:
https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product?id=40191
For watercoloring I use Ranger Archival or Simon Says Stamp dye ink:
https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Ranger-Archival-Ink-Pad-JET-BLACK-AIP31468-33967?currency=USD
https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product?id=131704
Hope the links are helpful! These will definitely prevent bleeding!
Fantastic cards! I have just started coloring. Practice! Practice! Hopefully one day I will be good at it! Thanks for the inspiration!
always so inspired by you and your videos thanks so much
Hello
Hello! Love!
Hello! Thank you so much for all the wonderful coloring inspiration as well as the techniques. I always learn so much from your videos. Thank you for taking the time to share!
Hello
Hello.
I am so excited for this “30 Day Coloring Challenge.” Thank you for all your work.
HELLO!
I actually found you first on you tube while ago and had to see your site. Boy am I glad I did. I love your video for your blog Hop. I’m terrible with alcohol Markers and I appreciated the lesson. I’ll be back for more!
Welcome to the site Mandy!
Hello!
I’m excited for another 30day challenge!
Hello there! Wonderful coloring and challenge! Beautiful cards. Thanks, Denise
Amazing cards. I am not good at coloring so thought this is the best way to learn. Day 1 coloring project is uploaded on Instagram. Looking forward to join more and more day. I have not prepared like many I see on IG but I will see how it goes.
That’s the spirit! HAPPY you’re joining us! Welcome!
Hi Kathy. I’m so glad you are doing this again and I hope to participate often. I love both your cards. So much fun!
Hello!!!
This is just awesome! Thank you so much for sharing your talent.
Hi Kathy, so happy that you are doing the challenge again!!! 😀
Hello!
I decided 2017 was the year I would master coloring on my cards. I’ve always shied away from it, so I was so happy to find your blog and the 30 Day Coloring Challenge. I’m gonna become one with my Spectrum Noir markers!
That’s the spirit Amy!
ahh hello! ♥
Lovely work! I’m enjoying the challenge already!!!
Hello… I’ve seen the # so many times and wondered what it was all about. I don’t really colour every day having two young children, but I like to colour when I can and love looking at other’s creations
THE # MEANS ‘hashtag.’ It is just a way to post something on Instagram and have it come up all grouped together. So if you color and post a picture use #thedailymarker30day – then we can see everyone who is participating.
Lol, sorry. I meant specifically your hash tag!
Hello! It’s always a pleasure to watch your videos. It motivates me to create every time I have the chance. Great job!
I absolutely love your challenges they are so much fun n its so cool seeing everyone participate in them!
Hello, Kathy! Thanks for organizing such a fun challenge and blog hope today. So much inspiration and happy artists sharing today. You are a real blessing to our creative community!
Hello! Thanks for the challenge.
Love hopping and love your coloring. I wish I had the talent. I try but just can’t seem to make it look right. I will keep trying thanks to your inspiration.
Thats the spirit! 🙂 Keep trying, you’ll surprise yourself!
Hello! So inspired! Never participated before!
Yay!!! Welcome Mollie!
Hello! I am going to do my best to color along. This is a great challenge, and I think it will make everyones coloring a little better! Thank You!
Hello – I just found your website and 30 day coloring challenge. I am excited to participate. Coloring for just a little bit daily is something I have been doing and find that it relaxes me at night before bed.
Yay, welcome Wanda! I agree, it is very relaxing and therapeutic.
Hello. Bonjour. Thank you for inspiring us to color.
I just watched all your videos for the new color challenge, to catch up. The projects are absolutely amazing.
Yayyy!
Hello!
Hello!
This card is gorgeous as always! ❤
Hello! Love the challenge
Hello
You got me started on colouring. I thank you from the bottom of my heart dearest Kathy. I really do use it as therapy for my anxiety and PTSD. It calms me down and de stresses me. I take my colouring with me when I go out and know I’ll be waiting somewhere. You could be bottled up and labeled ” Lifesaver “. Thank you for your encouragement. Big Hugs!
I am so happy I could introduce you to something to make you happy. Coloring makes me happy and is very relaxing and therapeutic. Thank you for sharing your sweet comment. 🙂
Thank you for the inspiration, Kathy and also for the awesome giveaway! Always a treat to learn new colouring techniques from you!
Hello Kathy. Love the card and the coloring you never cease to inspire me!
Hello:)

Yay! Welcome! Happy you are participating this time! Do not compare, I know it is easier said than done, but that is NOT what this challenge is about. We have many with numerous skill levels. It’s about making time for you!

Thank you so much. Now on to the hop
Hello-Beautiful designs!!
Hello Kathy! I love how you truly enjoy what you’re doing. Thanks for all the inspiration.
I am so happy to see a mash up!! Usually stampers tend to stick to one company and I have such a hard time doing this. Thank you for the inspiration!!
Hi! This will be the most relaxing part of my day for this month. So very thankful you provide ideas and different ways to look at stamps.
🙂 🙂 🙂
Hello! Happy day2! Enjoy your coloring everyone!

Oh that bag from illustrated faith is on my Wishlist!! thanks for doing a blog hop with giveaways. I’m so glad you do the 31 challenges more often so we can see your amazing colouring skills more regularly. I bet it’s a lot of work and pressure for you though
It is a lot of work, thank you for recognizing that. It is sooooo beneficial though. The frienships, inspiration and making time for ourselves to color! Thanks for participating!
Hello! I love your beautiful cards!
Thanks for another great video and 30 day coloring challenge! Excited to follow along.
Hi Kathy! This is my first year participating in the 30 day colouring challenge :D. I’m going to pace myself as I’m usually fairly sporadic in my crafting schedule. Do you think it’ll be 31 days this month? 😀
Welcome Stacy! Happy you’re here!!! 🙂
Hello! I always enjoy all the beautiful coloring that comes with your challenges. Thanks for such a generous giveaway!
Hi Kathy! Can I just say wowzers!?! Your coloring of this girl is just phenomenal! LOVE it!
Hello Kathy, I look forward to your 30 Day Challenges. To bad February only had 28 days!
Hello
I am so pleased to be witnessing another 30 day challenge. It is so educational and it gets my juices flowing again. I have learned so much today and I can’t wait to use my colored pencils with my colics. That is my project for tomorrow, even if I don’t finish a card. I am just going to color and experiment. Can’t wait.
Happy I inspired and motivated you to play!
Hello!
Hello!
Kathy I thought it was so funny that subscribers wanted you to slow things down on your videos. I love your detailed videos & why &how you color things a certain way, and I am a horrible colorer, but I’m just the opposite. Even though I am a terrible colorer I totally get the gist of what you’re saying to try in your videos and just want to move on to the absolutely beautiful finished product you created!! YOU ROCK!!
Thank you Patty!
Hello!!! Looking forward to a great month.
Hello!!!! Love the Coloring Challenge. It is so helpful to me. Keep up the great work.

Hello, and thank you for your dedication to encouraging all of us to color!
Hello! This is my first time participating in the 30 day challenge and I am so glad I am finally doing it. I had a bad day today and was dragging my heels on colouring tonight.

Hello! Love all your inspiration Kathy.

You are so inspiring!! Thanks for all the coloring inspiration!!!
Hello Kathy! Oh how I wish we were neighbors and I could sit right next to like a little sponge and just absorb and learn all of your coloring talent. Thank you for creating this challenge.
LOL. Thank you for the sweet comment! It made me smile. 🙂
Hello–thanks so much for the challenges!
I have been inspired by you to color with my kids during your coloring challenge. It was a great day yesterday and good stress- bonding time with my kids. Thank you and hello!
Jenn F
I hope you meant good stress-free bonding with the kids! It’s wonderful to have people, esp. kids, to color with. Thanks for participating!
Hello Kathy!
Hello! I am new to your challenge and excited to get started
Yay, WELCOME Lisa!!!
What a fun blog hop and creative ideas! Thank you for your creativity and generosity!
So happy to be participating this time….love the way you inspire people! Thank you, Kathy!
Welcome Michelle. I am glad you’re participating this time too!
Kathy, thank you once again for organizing this wonderful event. This is my fourth (i think) time joining in on the fun, and every time I participate, I learn more about myself as a colorist. So thank you for bringing so many of the crafting community together for thirty days. It has become such an amazing way to learn about new crafters, products, and online communities. And on a side note, thank you for doing this in March. We have a wonderful thing happening to our family at the end of March and the challenge will be a wonderful way to distract us as we tick off the days on the calendar.
Welcome back EK. Happy March was a good month for you!
I love this challenge the most! It inspires so many , and that inspires me. I always get so many cards made during these challenges. This one is just in time for Easter card making. plan on seeing plenty from me.
Yay! 🙂
Stamping up images right now to do some coloring! Thanks for the challenge!
So happy to participate again. Thank you for doing this.
Hello! I just love watching you color with copics!
Hello. So enjoyable to watch your videos I’m learning a lot
Hey Ya’ll. I love your messy water coloring technique on the butterfly. I have a tendency to be messy also. Thank you for sharing. – Carol G.
Thank you and all your wonderful ambassadors for all you do!
You’re welcome Shirley. Thank YOU for playing along!
Thank you Kathy for bringing us The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge! It always motivates me to colour more!
Thanks for the chance to win a prize too – looks awesome!
🙂
Hello, Kathy! I learned about you from Jennifer McGuire, so I’m new. When my daughters were little, I always colored with them. When they come home for the holidays, we all still color. They are now in their 30s!
Welcome Cindy Lou! Happy you are here!
Hello. That’s a beautiful giveaway package. Thanks.
Hello. Thanks for all you do with the challenge! Love it and learn some great techniques every time.
Well Hello there 🙂 thank you for awesome coloring and awesome giveaways!!! Hugs!
Hello! Thanks for organizing this hop. Amazing coloring creations!!
Hello!
#hello!!!
loved your videos. they inspired me a lot and gave me lot of ideas!!!
thank you!!
Hello. This is my first time on your blog. I love blog hops and have enjoyed being inspired by everyone. I have just begun with Copic markers and enjoy watching coloring techniques. Thanks.
WELCOME Cindy! Thank you for visiting and I am so happy you enjoyed the blog hop! 🙂
Hello, Kathy!
This is my first color challenge and I’m very excited! I’m relatively new to stamping, but have been coloring a long time!
YAY! Welcome Valerie!
“Hello, hello. I like your smile. Hello, hello, can we talk a while?” From a song by the Cowsills and pretty appropriate since you said we had to say hello. I am glad I get e-mail’s from Stamping Bella too because I didn’t get an e-mail from you today. If I didn’t go on Stamping Bella’s site I wouldn’t have know about the hop and that would have made me so sad! At first I thought maybe I missed your e-mail today so I did a search and the last e-mail I got from you was Wed. Did something happen or was it AOL? I hope I am still part of the coloring challenge.
Loved what you did on Stamping Bella and I loved the other card you did here. I loved how you used two stamps together from 2 different sets. Why don’t I ever think to do that? I’m going to now.
Thank you for doing such a cool hop and for giving us cool prizes. I can’t wait to see what everyone did. Oh yeah, guess who is getting a die cutter? A person on-line who makes tags and has a group has one she can’t use anymore because it has a hand crank and her hands have arthritis. She is giving it to me! For free! She will even pay to ship it! I am so excited!She is so nice to do this for me!
Okay, I am done now. On to my next part of the hop. Maybe your e-mail is in my spam folder. That happens sometimes even though you are in my address book. I’ll check there too.
Hi Gail, I am not sure what happened with the email. It should have been sent out around 10am EST. YAYYY that you’re getting a die cutter – free, even better! Thanks as always, for your kind comment. 🙂
Hello! I’m so excited for this color challenge!
Hello, Kathy!
Hello. I decided to just color and figure out later what to do with it all. What fun!
Hello
Hi Kathy! Thanks for another 30 day! I love watching you color because your technique is so unique and color combos open up my world! I love your mix and match stamping style!
Hi Kathy, Love, love your challenges! You are such an inspiration to this community! Peace, love & hugs! Jennifer
Hello!
Hello. . . what a hop! Thank you!

Hello Kathy, love watching your videos and i agree the sharper the color pencils the better is the coloring. Love your embassadors!
Thank you Mary. My ambassadors are great!!!

Most of them are companies I love as well, and a few are new to me, so that’s fun also!

Hello, Kathy! Thank you for the coloring challenge! After months away because of illness, this challenge is perfect timing for me to get back into the swing of coloring and card making.
Yay Sharon. I am soooo happy to see you back coloring. I always love your cards! Hugs!
Hello dear Kathy,
I cannot thank you enough for your kindness and inspiration! I’m so glad to have found this challenge and to be able to “meet” so many talented and kind people. Last November was a rough month for me and my family, but the coloring challenge really, really helped me to keep going. Now unfortunately, the past two weeks haven’t been going too well again, and I’m just so glad that there’s another coloring challenge <3 I might not be able to share a photo every single day, but I'll definitely try to do some coloring every day, because it really helps me calm down and relax.
Now I'm really curious to see what all those amazing people in the hop have created 🙂
Best wishes from Germany,
Andrea
Wishing you health and I am happy the coloring challenge is helping you!
Love the vivid colors you used.
Hello
Hello Kathy!!
Just love watching you during your challenges, and this time I hope to actually participate more than I have in the past! Thanks for these awesome videos!!

Hello 🙂 thanks for all the coloring tutorials and inspiration
Hello from Australia! I love your blog!! and your creativity !!
Hello. You inspire me!
Thanks for sharing all your wonderful talent with us and hosting this challenge!
I haven’t colored since grade school, and I don’t think I was very good at it. But you have inspired me to try. I have some colored pencils and some stamps so here goes.
Yay Kathy, try, try, try! It is relaxing and so much fun!
hello! i’m not big into posting things much anymore but i have been trying to color more!
Hello!
Hello! Thank you for the encouragement to color each day. I started your last challenge but did not finish. My goal is to make it all the way through AND share the cards that I make with family and friends.
Thanks for the terrific hop and the Challenge and your daily doses inspiration and fun.
Saying Hello from
Carla from Utah
I love coloring and have tried many techniques, mastering none! I recently invested in some Tombow markers and was delighted to see your video on using them. I can’t wait to play with them. Thanks for all your inspiration.
Hello and wow, Kathy! The combination of the bella and butterfly is just incredible! Thank you for sharing your talent and your tips! I am making it a point to try to color every day and finding it relaxing! My only problem is time will get away from me… LOL
wow, Kathy! The combination of the bella and butterfly is just incredible! Thank you for sharing your talent and your tips! I am making it a point to try to color every day and finding it relaxing! My only problem is time will get away from me… LOL
Kathy, I could watch you all day. I am going to try to get going this month. I know I’ll never be as good as you, but hey, it’s supposed to be fun, right? Thank you for sharing your expertise.
Right!!!! Fun and making time for you is the point!!!
hello!
Hello!
So happy to have discovered you.
Now, I can’t wait till tomorrow.
Hello! Love how you combined the two stamps. Great coloring!
I am LOVING this challenge! I have wanted to play along in the past but life has always gotten in the way. I’m excited to set aside a bit of time each day to color!
Hello Kathy! Hi! Bon jour! Hola! Whatup?
Howdy! Bon Soir!( that is hello at night in Paris! )
Love this challenge and love to color, gotta go now.
I have a video to watch where a beautiful butterfly
Is being colored… did I say hello?
Hello. Loved the video. The challenge sounds like fun.
That was awesome watching you color the Stamping Bella gal. I could watch you color all day!! I’m very new to colored pencils but I want to try them with copics now. I can’t believe the details you add with them. Thanks for encouraging us to color each day. It’s nice to slow down from the hustle and bustle even if only for 5 minutes.
I am thinking that this is what I need to do. My life has been so crazy lately and am feeling that I need some me time. I feel like I get that when I’m making cards. So maybe I will take a little time each day to stamp, colour, make a card. Thanks for the inspiration to do this!!
That is the point – make some time for YOU!
Hello!
Hi Kathy, thought of you last night as I sat down to colour with my pencils. This has grown into such a huge event and enjoyed by so many. You must be so proud and pleased!!!!
Well Hello Kathy ! Your coloring is absolutely stunning. I can sit all day and just daydream.
Love your colourings and also this challenge, so much fun to see what everybody is making and to meet people with the same hobby!
Wow – your projects are always soooo amazing, Kathy! Thanks so much for the tutorial!
Looks like fun! Better get hopping 🙂
Love your videos! Beautiful as always! And what a nice prize pack! Thanks for the chance to win!
Great coloring I know the rest of the hop will be as good too
Oh, I missed coloring along the first two days but there is a lot of time left.thanks for all your inspiration.
Two amazing cards! I really must try to find some time to do some colouring!
Hi Kathy! I just wanted to say thank you so much for all the time and work you put into creating and maintaining this challenge! My one little word this year is “create” and this challenge is coming at a great time for me to practice coloring techniques and improve my coloring skills. So, thank you! It’s only the 3rd day and I am already inspired and having a great time!
Thank YOU Steph! I am so happy you’re having fun!

Hello, Kathy.
Missed your previous 30-day Coloring Challenge but told myself “not this one.” It’s great to watch your videos.
Welcome! I am so glad you’ve decided to participate!
Hello!!so excited to do this challenge! I admire all of you very talented colorists! With my daily practice one day I can be almost as good!!
Hello!
I enjoyed the videos. Trying to learn how to color well enough to make my own cards and always looking for pointers.
HELLO!!!!
Hello Kathy!
I’m joined #thedailymarker30day at Instagram.
I have a blog, but, I feel easier to post on instagram better than on a blog. Is it okay?
Yes Dian, that is where I prefer you to post (On Instagram). Just be sure to add the hashtag (#thedailymarker30day) so everyone can see your creations. Happy you decided to play along. WELCOME!
Hello. I decided to try this but I’m already behind. I hope to have time tomorrow. Your creations are beautiful. I love that bright butterfly!
WELCOME Cynthia! This challenge is about no stress so don’t worry about being behind. Just move forward, not back! Happy you’re joining us!
Hello Kathy! Thank you for hosting this wonderful challenge, it’s truly inspiring in many ways.
Hello Kathy,
Finally worked up the courage to join in and post on the 30 day challenge. It really is awesome that you are responsible for making us all feel welcome and comfortable for joining in and taking part.
WELCOME Giovanna! I am so happy you’ve decided to join in on the fun!! 🙂
Whoot, it’s coloring challenge time again! Thanks for doing this the inspiration is awesome!!!
Hello Kathy. Thanks so much for sponsoring this challenge again. I participated for the first time last November and feel like my coloring skills progressed a lot due to it. Thanks for the giveaway and videos too!
Hello!
Hi, Hi, Hi!!!!
Love the creativeness of this skinny girl with butterfly wings.
Hello Kathy! Having fun with the coloring challenge!
Hello!
So I am a bit tragic… just scrolled through pretty much all the comments to see if mine had worked and wondered too if I had a reply. (I realise you can’t reply to all so I wasn’t worried if you hadn’t). I couldn’t find my comment!! It may be there and i just missed it! LOL… i had said hello from Australia and how clever you were to put the two stamps together to form a unique image! Plus other stuff that I can’t remember. It was back when I think there was only about 150 comments and now there is 850! Sorry if you get two from me, but I did want to say thanks for your inspiration and for all the work you put into your challenge.
Awe thank you Christine. You’re sweet to be sure to comment again. Sorry if I missed you before! Happy you’re playing along with us! 🙂
I’ve been waiting for you to start this up again! I love watching you color. It relaxes even me! And it makes me giggle when I see you spending time shading and working and reworking areas – even when you know it is going to be covered up by another image. It’s hard to stop sometimes & I feel better knowing I’m not the only one with these issues. I’ve been watching you & your white gel pen for quite a while & finally got the courage to do some white dotting myself. It’s so hard to start, since I sometimes spend so much time coloring a panel that I’m afraid I’ll ruin it. Once I’ve started, now I can’t stop! There are white dots and dashes and swirls everywhere! Thanks as always for the inspiration…
Awe, thanks so much for the sweet and kind comment. It makes me smile that I inspire you! I am totally addicted to my white gel pen! LOL
Hello Kathy,
I am joining in your challenge along with the other Design Team members at Strawberry Jude Stamps.
Hi Tricia! Awesome- so happy you and your DT are joining in on the fun! WELCOME!
Hello.
Nice things!
Kathy, thanks so much for doing this challenge. I’m a newbie and have a super difficult time blending colors so that is my goal for the month – I want to learn how to blend!
Yay Erika! WELCOME! So happy you’re here!
Love your coloring Kathy and how you adding details using the pencils !
Ohh my goodness 851 comments before I got to here. Love how you have coloured the half figure, I have this stsmp and havent used it yet. So inspired I love how you put her at the desk with all those plants, the detail for her eyes. So beautiful then the butterfly. Keep us going strong.
Thank you for another month of fun colouring Kathy!! I love all your inspiration and creative ideas. Makes me want to try new techniques. But most of all I met so many sweet crafty friends during the past challenges. And now we all colour together!
Hello! 🙂
I love watching your coloring passion! I have been organizing supplies. I completed my Peerless Watercolor swatch sheet last night 🙂 Actually I made 4! One for me, another for my 11 year old daughter Clara. The 3rd goes to daughter Anna, who turned 8 last month. Our friend Kate has been busy as our high school musical (Cinderella) pianist and vocal coach. What better gift, after the final performance on Sunday, than the 4th Peerless sheet! Thanks for being a coloring inspiration.
Yay to swatching! 🙂
Your coloring is amazing

HELLO!
Hello Kathy! My 13 y/o son has the flu (mild, but still the flu) so he has been coloring. I thought I’d upload something on the FB group when he’s finished a picture. As for me, I received my watercolor paper yesterday and cut one sheet in quarters. Hopefully I’ll get further along today! Thanks for doing these 30 day challenges, they are inspiring!
I hope your son feels better soon Melissa. No stress about just cutting the paper- one of the challenge rules is no stressing! 🙂 🙂 🙂

Thank you Debbie! Happy coloring!
Hi, Kathy,
I love how you add pencil to your markers. I’m wondering which colors of Prismacolor pencils you used to define the skin tones on the card you did with the woman and the succulents? Thanks very much!
Honestly Susie, I don’t remember. You can use a variety of warm, flesh tones and they should work. Use what you have!!! Sorry, hope this was helpful! 🙂 Happy you’re here and playing along!
Hello Kathy! You do such beautiful coloring. Thanks so much for sharing with us and for participating in this great hop and giveaway!
Hello and thank you for inspiring me/us! I really enjoy quirky by the way lol!
You are so wonderful to host this challenge! Thank you for all the hard work! Love both your videos!
Hello! Learning lots here. Thanks!
Hello, Kathy! I just finished the blog hop and all I can say is WOW! I am super impressed and extra inspired! I really like that many of the stops along the hop mixed in products from different companies – just like you did! This is so refreshing to me and just made me happy! I do this myself – I love to mix and match from a variety of companies! I really enjoyed both of your videos! It’s such a joy to watch you colour and create – and the result is always fabulous! I’m 3 for 3 and will be colouring again today, but I’m not pressuring myself, just trying to take a few minutes to colour each day. Thank you for inspiring!
I am so happy that you enjoyed the hop! 🙂
Hello Kathy! You’re so kind , thank you so much !!! And a HUGE thank you for this challenge, it’s simply unbelievable! It brings so many new friends, new experience, crafty mojo. Thank you for that!
Wow, that took some time scrolling to the comment box! What a wonderful group of artist you have here!!
I’m loving the new Bella stamps. Got lots of ideas!!
Hi Kathy ~ I already commented on your awesome card for today, but I had to come back and thank you for including Power Poppy to this hop! They are new to me and I am so excited to have found them. I ordered some digitals that are on sale, and I think I’m hooked! You are a wonderful asset to this community and do so much for so many of us trying to master the art of creating something beautiful to share through coloring!
Keep up the amazing inspiration! Sincerely!
Yayyyy! I love Power Poppy. Marcella, the owner and artist is super talented!
Hi Kathy! Love this card – you are an amazingly creative person! I love the quirky/real deal of your voiceovers too!

Thank you so much for hosting the Challenge – I can only imagine all the work that goes into it! You are such an inspiration to me, and others – I’m sure. Thanks again for EVERYTHING!!!
Thank you joyce, your comment made me smile! 🙂

I love the idea of this challenge. It is creativity inducing.
Hello! I was going to do the 30 days last time and didn’t do it even once. This time I’m going to do it but my creations are not post-worthy. Nonetheless I will get the benefit of coloring which I have loved to do since I was a youngster.
Don’t think like that Laura! Sure, they definitnely are post-worthy! We have all levels of talent and the community is super encouraging and kind. Don’t be afraid. Regardless, WELCOME!! I am happy you decided to play along.
Hello! What an awesome prize and hop collection of sponsors! I love your Coloring Challenges!!
That cup card is awesome! I think she looks a little like TSwift 😉

Hello !!!
have an awesome week!
What a sweet card Kathy. Super cuteness Bella image.. and I love this succulents surranding her. Cute! Wish I was more comfortable with my copics. I’ve been doing a lot of water coloring lately. It’s more forgiving and easier for me, who doesn’t know how to color.
Hello!
Hello! Your Thinking of You card made me swoon. The coloring is fabulous.
I like to mix and match also, thanks for the awesome give away.
“Hello”
Hi Kathy. I was at a card class tonight and told them about your 30 Day Challenge. One woman excitedly showed us some of the pics she has put on instagram. YOU ROCK.
Thanks for the challenge Kathy!! I have been wanting to do more colouring with my copics, so this is perfect!! Also thanks for introducing me to some fabulous companies I have never come across!!
I love being inspired by your work and all the members of the hop! I have collected some coloring books that I’d like to use copics on!
What a great challenge! I love to color, but don’t always have the time. This challenge will remind me to take time to relax and have fun. Thanks for your inspiration and the great give-away!
