Hello Friends, Today any different than yesterday? I hope that’s a yes and that you all continue to stay healthy!
I am taking a poll on Instagram to see if you would be interested in continuing the coloring challenge. If you would like to vote … just say “YES” or “NO” in the comment area. Coloring is keeping some of us sane so I thought I would ask.
Feels so good to sit, color and finish. This stamp was sooo fun to color and making the grass blue was even more enjoyable. What I struggle with is finding the perfect pencil sharpener. Miss Ink Stamps is releasing this whimsical series on Saturday and on their blog they are doing a giveaway! Woo Hoo!
The release is sort of an “ultimate Alice” set!! Whenever I am doing some no line coloring I always reach for Gina’s Warm Glow ink because I can see what I am coloring.
For my coloring it’s all the things that I normally do. Dots, lines, sharp pencils. Black in the nooks & crannies and make up on the caterpillar. Yesterday I showed step 1. and 2.
I decided to put the photos together. In the OnLine Card Class I teach/taught (it’s still available) I really harp on adding darker colors and adding black to the nooks and crannies. This really brings that point home if you aren’t going for that soft look.
So I am super excited about this and I will let you know when sign ups are. Lydia is such a hoot and knows all the things and we are just going to chat about coloring and take questions. It’s free and super casual.
See you tomorrow. Hugs, Kathy

YES, I love the 30 Day Challenge, please continue.
Wonderful finished mushrooms and that catepillar is awesome, I see what you mean about the added black for the nooks and crannies! Perfect!
YES!
Oh love! This is beautiful!
I knew I would love this finished and I do. Awesome coloring and color choices!
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Kathy’s Online Road Trip Coloring Class! Her coloring tips really takes you to another level! Love this adorable scene! Another fantastic card.
Yes! One of the great things is being able looking at all the creations and seeing products that I’ve never seen before and coloring styles. It’s great to have a product and someone has used it and it inspires you.
Alice in Wonderland with Johnnie Dep was one of my most favorites. Special effects are so cool. Love this stamp set too. Going to check it out. Thank you for using this one. I always get good tips about stamp companies I am not familiar with. PLEASE keep doing the challenge. I do love it so…
Although I have not joined the 30 day this time around, yes please continue to do them!!! I love the inspiration and the push to create!!
Yes! Keep going. I like the idea, too, of you and Lydia on Zoom. Great idea!!
Love to see your colouring stage by stage. It really emphasizes your techniques. You made the stamp come alive and made it look 3D . Such a talented artist. I subscribe to your YouTube videos as well and they are terrific. Hugs.
Love how you colored this stamp set, it’s adorable! I can’t wait to learn about your chats with Lydia–I’ve been attending so many chat and watching crafty videos that I need to get more crafting done instead of watching!
Thank you for this delightful piece. I have had one of he worst days in my life today and sorely needed a smile.
Love this!
YES!
looks fabulous!
It’s so stunning to see how this awesome image is build up with colour.
I love it!! Nooks and crannies and lines and all the other small “Kathy things” makes such difference.
I hope to watch you both on Zoom but not with my face, don’t like that.
I voted on IG and yes I want to continue with the challenge!
Thank you so much for sharing, happy colouring, stay safe and healthy and see you tomorrow.
Please keep it going! The coloring challenge I mean. I should have answered before but I am catching up on e-mail’s. I’m not on Instagram so I can’t comment there. I get what you did. You added a lot on the stamp that wasn’t on the stamp before you stamped it. That is so cool! Is this an Alice In Wonderland stamp because it looks so much like Alice. I don’t think I would use this stamp either but it’s very cool. Thank you for making us happy with your coloring!
