Hello Friends, I hope you are having a colorful weekend. For Day 8. I have a quick post for you.
Simon Says Stamp just had an awesome new release! I don’t know how they keep coming up with great stamps and dies etc. over and over! Bravo SSS.
When I first laid my eyes on this gnome stamp set called, “Spring Gnomes” I couldn’t wait to color one of these cuties!
In the class I taught at Online Card Classes for only $20.00 is packed with a ton of videos and you have lifetime access to the videos. I took a deep dive in the class about how to finish an image. Adding a first layer of color … an underpinning with markers then adding pencil.
Enjoy your weekend and thank YOU for your visit. See you tomorrow. Hugs, Kathy

Spectacular, blue is my favourite colour and you have used it perfectly. I think I might have to get this stamp set after seeing what you have done here.
Thank so much.
SSS have the most adorable gnomes. With the coloring that you have done makes him look so real. Absolutely love your coloring. This is simply the cutest. Thanks for sharing your time and talent with us.
They do have great gnomes! Thanks for your kind words.
Love this cute spring genome stamp…
Perfect shades
Thanks so much
Your card is so sweet. I have the new Lost Coast Designs gnome stamps. They are also cute so maybe I will have a go at some of your colouring tips. The effect of the pencil layers is awesome. Can’t believe it’s day 8 already. I just don’t seem to be colouring this month. Must try harder. Hugz
Have fun when you do have a chance to color
This is gorgeous Kathy. I love the colours you have used .
Thank you so much
I love those Spring Gnomes! Your coloring of that one is amazing, as is everything you color. I especially love what you did with the beard! Bravo.
Thanks so much
Beautiful! I love the new spring gnomes!
Thanks!
I love this technique. I’ve use it with my Polychromos ever since I saw you do it. I don’t like the white gaps in coloured pencil colouring and this sorts it out. Thank you for continued inspiration Kathy!
Glad you are having fun with the pencils.
I’ve made 5 gnome cards already for the challenge but now I want to do more to try this. Love this little gnome.
The gnomes are so cute!
Kathy, I took your online coloring class! LOVED it! I highly recommend it for everyone! I learned so much and truly enjoyed all your great tips!
This gnome is so adorable! Thanks for sharing your talent with us! Hugs!
So glad you enjoyed the class. And thanks for your kind words.
Wow!!! Your coloring still amazes me!!! Beautiful!!!
Thank you
WOW!!! This is gorgeous!!
Thank you Nora
Such adorable Spring Gnomes and coloring! Makes such a difference with the added pencil markings. Have my pencil sharpener always handy!!
Always need those sharp pencils!
I felt the same when I first saw these adorable gnomes… Who knew these guys would be so popular? Love that beautiful blue, too handsome!
They sure are popular for sure!
Gorgeous colouring Kathy, I love the new gnomes by SSS.
I just posted a card where the colouring is based on your technique, first a layer of marker and then colouring with coloured pencil on top.
Thank you so much for sharing, happy colouring and see you tomorrow.
Thanks so much
Such beautiful colors for this little guy. I love him!
He is cute!
What lovely coloring. Some of my children saw the shoes from yesterday and wanted to know if you could draw something on their Converses.
I love this gnome and I love seeing him holding the sweet little bird.
Thanks!
Coloring with markers and and then pencils seems like a lot of work, but your end result is gorgeous!!
It does take some time to add those details but it’s fun to do.
Your work is amazing!
Thank you
OOh I love this and the gnome is awesome! I love all the details you added to him and his beard is great! Thank you for the daily inspiration.
Thank you for stopping by
Truly amazing! I learned so much from your class and can’t color now without the addition of pencils! Amazing job!
Thank you
I love this technique.. It adds so much depth to coloring. Thank you Kathy!

Gnomes are so fun!
cute gnome!
great coloring!
Thank you
Gnomes are really a big deal, aren’t they? I see them everywhere & now I see one here. I like yours. Gnomes are kinda cute & I like the colors you did with yours.
I too am amazed when Simon Says & other stamp companies come up with new stamps or images for each month or season. I don’t know how they do it but I am sure glad they do. Sometimes there are so many new images that I want them all & that’s bad! LOL
I made 2 new cards & I will post them. I have other things to color but I haven’t done them yet. I also made some treats yesterday. Potato chips, peanuts, pecans & melted PB & chocolate chips. They are no bake. Can I send you some?
You are so sweet. During this time perhaps there is someone near you who could use a pick me up?
Amazing that something can be absolutely adorable and really beautiful at the same time. But Kathy Racoosin can do it… I simply LOVE what you have done with this charming little guy.
Thanks so much
