Helloooo Friends! How are you today? If you are new to my blog a warm welcome to you & thank you for your visit. Today is the 15th day of “The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge” . I have assembled a two day hop for you plus there will be giveaways along the way. Yay!
Why a hop you might ask? There are so many awesome stamp companies that I wanted to thank for their support during some or all of the coloring challenges. Today and tomorrows blog hop is a small way to say thank YOU to all these companies. If I forgot your company please email me!
If you are wondering what The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge is or if you have questions you can refer to this post. The premise of “The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge” is to color something everyday even if it’s for five minutes. Any medium is welcome & any skill level.
If you have been on the fence and watching the coloring challenge from the side lines the middle mark is a great time to take the leap, jump in and get your feet wet! Test the waters! Don’t feel like you are jumping into the middle of the challenge I hope you will think of it as a new beginning.
If you decided to jump into the challenge don’t be hard on yourself and dive in with your eyes shut and enjoy the benefits that coloring will give you. If you want to get my posts in your mailbox you can sign up here or subscribe to my videos here.
This beautiful “Water Lily” is from Ink On 3 and it was so fun to color.
All of the companies featured today have their own unique style and if one of these companies is new to you I hope you take the time to explore their blogs and stores to see the variety that they offer.
One of the many things I talk about is to take some supplies along with you when traveling. You might notice that my photos looks slightly different and that’s because I have been on the road and photographing these projects at the airport.
I posted this photo on Instagram stories before I left. These were the only markers that I packed in my carry on. (I have never had any problems with TSA and my some of my markers have been all over the world … knock on wood. Twice the TSA officer asked if my markers were make up …. um … NO!)
When I “color pluck” my markers I look for ones that I don’t normally use because it forces me to color out of the box. “Coloring Plucking” is randomly selecting colors lol however, I always pack, RV10, E50, 0 and a few grey markers.
Using the pink and orange together was bright and I like that combination but, I needed a little more intense color so I plucked a bright purple. You can compare the flower on the right and left to see which one you prefer. (the right one that I added the bright purple to)
One of the things I love most about stamping is mixing up the stamps to create my own look. This is the masking paper that I always use to mask off my images. For this coloring project I inked up this masculine stamp called, “World’s Greatest” with “Spring Bouquet” from Avery Elle.
Loving that bright purple …. I added the same purple on the orange flowers for more depth.
White dots and lines were added with a gel pen. Outlining the image with a sharpie fine tip marker is something I have been doing since 2007.
This part of the coloring I did at home and finished this the rest up on the road.
Your Next Stamp has this adorable “Funny Farm Crew” & I thought this sweet little goat would look cool in a flower bed of daisies. Jane’s Doodles daisies were just the right scale for the look I was going for.
Adding twine that I color with a marker gives my cards a little bit of dimension and pop.
The background was colored first and then I used a rag with some of this for texture.
I was able to add some white gel pen accents to this and outline the image since my airplane is so delayed. That proves always travel with a few supplies! I got home late last night and had a smidge of time to rephotograph some of these for my post.
I searched for this stamp from Mommy Lhey and could not find it. Sorry about that but, hopefully this might give you an idea how fun it can be to mix up your stamps. The veggies are on sale from Newton’s Nook. I was trying to use something from every company but, if only there was more time.
Ink On 3 has a beautiful fade out ink for “no line” coloring. Everything else today was stamped with Memento tuxedo black on 110 lb neenah. I only use the heavier paper because I love the feel and it holds the ink better with less blurred lines.
I wish I had time to finish this hopefully later.
EVERY HOP NEEDS A GREAT GIVEAWAY. My giveaway for today is Tim Holtz travel stamp platform ,the zipper sleeve plus a tote bag AND a goodie bag from me. A big thank you to Tim Holtz!

Tim! Amazing coloring today.
Britta says
Tim! Such great cards you show today! I always struggle with crafting when on the road – never know what to take with me and often no proper seating and table. So I rather take my crocheting, which can even be done on a plane with little wiggle-room for my elbows… :o)

Amy Reagan says
Tim! Question…Im attending the road trip at Hero Arts and colorless blending solution is recommended. Does it need to be copic brand to use with the markers or can i use my ranger brand that i use with alcohol inks? I don’t want to mess anything up and need to buy the copic brand if I need to. Thanks in advance for answering!

Tim! He happend to be one of my favorite designers and crafter.
I love your gorgeous colouring, always bright and happy. The question which Water Lily I prefer isn’t difficult, the right one with the purple, it stand outs so much more than the left one. When you see the two together it looks like the left one isn’t finished yet.
Thanks for the great Blog Hop and your Giveaway for the hop. I am off to hop now, see you tomorrow!
Lisa Tilson says
Tim.

Tim!
There are some new companies to me on the hop – so fun to discover!
Sheri K says
I love Tim–and all of his inks, products and tools! Great coloring–I’m currently working on a very detailed Anna Griffin coloring card–at the precipice of deciding how much to black outline and white gel pen add and whether to fill in all of the blank background pieces with a color and white color! Lots of thought but decided since once you add it’s difficult to take away, it’s best to step away for a few hours and then decide how much to add. Thanks for a great hop Kathy!
Gabriella B says
Tim
Sue McRae says
Tim! The water lily card is just gorgeous!
Andrea Hastilow says
You’ve said we can jump in half way, may I extend that to jump back in ? I had started with you and was going ok till I ended back up in hospital and surprisingly wasn’t allowed to take my art room with me, so I had to stop. May I jump back in now, maybe if I’d had a tiny TIM with me I could have carried on from my bed at the hospital. Teach me to be better prepared next year. Great fun images you’ve shown today, love the mix and match effect x

bev p says
I love your helpful tips about color–especially about not being afraid to mix it up–I have multiple colored pencil sets, but the one I kept out while packing up has no true red. I now embrace the opportunity to mix colors when I don’t have “just the right” shade. It’s a learning process, but becoming so much fun. And, I just have to say ‘Tim’! Thank you.
Mardi Joy Weber says
Tim! Such a sweetie. So are you Kathy! That purple makes a big difference. I’m going to get bolder and try color plucking!
Heaney says
Tim ! Let it be mine.

Ink on 3 is new to me. Love your bravery with color. These flowers are so lovely. Today’s project for me is to make a b’day card for my son-in-law Tim… Great timing huh! He is a motorcycle guy so that will be my theme for his card. Probably will use some shiny papers….

I have missed a couple of days due to family commitments, but I can honestly say my time coloring calms me and makes me forget the worrisome things life can present.
Kerry myers says

Dang Kathy…..you and TIM are killing me! I have a severe concussion and I’m “supposed” to be on “Brain Rest” (no computer, no tv, no reading, no artwork, blah, blah blah) for another 10 days!
But because you and TIM are being so generous, I’m gonna “pace” myself & see how far I get with the blog hop.
Qbuterfly1 says
Tim! Kathy, your copic coloring is off the chain! Awesome work! Thanks for sharing your God given talent with us.
Margot says
Tim! Gee I really want that travel platform! I have the big one.
I am always so fascinated with how you get such rich deep vibrant color…even when you are plucking. I know about the nooks and crannies but that is different. Somehow your red isnt my red….I was glued the day with non copic markers and now you are traveling and still doing it……

Natasha says
Tim!
I am floored by the rich flowers you’ve coloured here! So pretty!
Gail Plaskiewicz says
Kathy, I can’t find my comment so I am thinking I didn’t! My bad! LOL I love you’re coloring but then I always did. I never think to put 2 different stamp sets together and I know with all the stamp sets I have I could so easily do that. Another way to use my stamp sets and give them twice the work. I love how colorful you’re cards are and did I forget to mention Tim, Timmothy or Timmy? Thanks for the chance to win something and for showing us you’re colorful cards!
shartl says
I can’t believe how adding that little bit of white pen detail makes these flowers pop!
