Hello Friends! How are you? Guess what? It’s that time … time for the next 30 Day Coloring Challenge! “The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge” I have been craving some daily coloring and some me time! What about you?
If this is your first time joining the challenge or the SEVENTEENTH CHALLENGE, a warm welcome to you! The goal of this challenge is to fine a little time to color PLUS the 30 day challenge has always been about community, spreading kindness & support for each other.! Perhaps you can only find ten minutes on some days, that is totally cool. This challenge is supposed to be fun and stress free!! This is a good way to put your coloring mediums to use while finding some selfcare.
I hope to answer any questions you might have or give you a little refresher if you have participated before. I will share my daily coloring both on my blog and on Instagram. I am rarely on Facebook, but there will also be a private FACEBOOK PAGE, if that is where you choose to share your coloring. Hopefully you will be inspired by the other entries posted each day by other participants and we can encourage each other to stretch our creativity.
Have a look at the #thedailymarker30day and you will find over 180,000 entries and so much inspiration from the previous challenges. It also gives you an idea of what some of our community is doing for their coloring. Thank YOU all for your participation!!! I would NOT be here if it wasn’t for you all!! Grateful is an understatement.
At the bottom of the post you will see a $5.00 OFF of the Online Edition of my Coloring Challenge Road Trip!! Sooo excited to give you this big discount thanks to Jennifer & Kristina of Online Card Classes!! For a limited time the class is only $15.00 for lifetime access, 12 + lesson PDFs with step-by-step written instructions that you can print out and take anywhere.
Any questions? Below are the answers to some questions you might have. If you still have a question let me know in the comment area & I will do my best to get back to you in a timely fashion.
WHAT IS THE GOAL OF THE CHALLENGE? To color something daily, even if it’s a few minutes, but certainly not required. (I know that I am happier when I am coloring even if it’s for 10 minutes.) It’s an ‘anything goes’ challenge; color whatever you feel inspired to do. Any medium of your choice including “coloring” with ink or fiber for that matter. Some days you will have more time than others but, it’s just about adding more time to color and carve out a little time for you. PLEASE DON’T FEEL like you need to finish or make a card. This is about coloring and finding a little time and it’s a lot about DE-STRESSING! (often I have colored one petal on a flower).
CAN ANYONE PARTICIPATE IN THE 30 DAY CHALLENGE? YES please! If you want to participate you can jump in at any time during the challenge. Feel free to include your children and grandchildren. If you miss a few days don’t feel like you have to catch up. We all know life can get in the way.
HOW DO YOU SHARE WHAT YOU ARE COLORING? On Day 1 I will have a place for you to share on my blog with a link up (here is the last challenge link up if you want to have a look). Two more ways to share are FaceBook or Instagram (these are more interactive). When you use the hashtag #thedailymarker30day and tag me that way I hope to find what you are doing. Kids & young adults use #thedailymarker30daykids.
WHAT IS A GOODWILL AMBASSADOR? Each challenge a group of people are chosen that were very active during during the previous challenge. They will be helping me spread love on Instagram and Facebook. The challenge is about coloring & it’s about community, spreading kindness & support for each other.
THE GOODWILL AMBASSADORS FOR THIS CHALLENGE are: A huge shout out to these lovely ladies & gent! Most of them have been LONG time coloring challenge participants and so fun to see these beautiful & handsome faces larger! It’s always an honor when a Goodwill Ambassador says yes to this time commitment and I hope you will check out their body of work on Instagram.
WHAT IS “THE COLORING CHALLENGE ROAD TRIP” If you are new to the coloring challenge you most likely don’t know about the road trip. I have taken the coloring challenge on the road to create some happiness with a feel good all day event that is affordable plus give back to the community at the same time. With that said Covid19 hit and my Road Trips have been cancelled for the time being.
Thankfully we filmed The Coloring Challenge Road Trip OnLine Edition with Online Card Classes. GUESS WHAT THEY ARE GIVING ME A BANGING DISCOUNT FOR YOU. Jennifer & Kristina are kicking $5.00 off the price so the class is only $15.00 until July 5th 11:59 eta and then the price goes back to $20.00 .

Hey Kathy – thanks for offering these coloring challenges!! I’m very lazy in my participation usually but maybe I can do the full 30 days this time! Great discount on the road trip class – I already have it in my list, just need to finish it from when it was first offered (lazy, I know). Lovely group of ambassadors – I’ll make a point to visit them too. Hugs!!
