The Daily Marker: 30 Days of Colouring Nov 2018

Hey,

Happy Monday to you!

Hope you had a nice weekend.

I am currently playing along with the current The Daily Marker 30 day colouring challenge. Kathy Rac has mad skillz when it comes to colouring and I love playing along to see more of her wonderful work. But I also love seeing all the other talented colourers (a word?) out there. And I have made some friends along the way, as I believe this is my 5th time joining in.

Because of the shoulder issue I had at the start of the current 30 days, I decided it would be fun to use my semi-neglected stash of digital stamps as stamping with the shoulder was an issue.

So all my days look something like this -

The awesome weightlifting Monster is by Hambo - I love their digi's they are always humorous.

But yesterday I wanted to finish off a piece I have been working on (main photo) so used that as my Day 11 colouring.

I loved the sentiment, it was in a new colouring book I bought in London, so I recreated it using my lightbox, so that I could watercolour it.

I am super pleased with how it came out, I used Zigs, Aquamarkers by Windsor & Newton and a paintbrush to colour them.

I'll show you the full 30 days at the end of the month.

The Daily Marker 30 day colouring challenge..end of the current challenge..

Hey,

So as it is sadly the last day of wonderful Kathy Rac's The Daily Marker 30 day colouring challenge, I thought I would show you some of the things I have made with my colouring over the last couple of weeks.

I love the colouring challenge, it makes me dig out either NBUS or older stuff that I haven't coloured in a while.

The main card is a Hambo digital stamp, that I cut out on my Silhouette. I coloured the monster with Promarkers. The background stamp is by Echo Park. The sentiment is a mix by Simon Says Stamp and The Alley Way Stamps.

I really love the next card, I recently started tracking down stamps by The Alley Way Stamps, they are no longer in business. This set is called Gotta Bug? I loved those weird germ / bug stamps. All coloured with distress inks. In a way, I wish I had left the monster off...

The card below is another digital stamp, by Dearie Dolls, also cut on the Silhouette. I coloured the cute bunny using Promarkers and added some Stickles for sparkle. The card blank is by Lawn Fawn and the sentiment is by SSS and was already to go and on my desk - love desk scraps.

Here is a NBUS stamp, I have had this birthday monster stamp by Unity for over a year and just never found an appropriate place to use him! The background was already made and in my 'ready made background' folder. The sentiment came with the stamp.

Finally another piece of NBUS, but a new one..I bought this stamp from Joann's on super discount bargain sale and it is by  WhipperSnapper Designs. I love the birdies on the line. The stamp is called The Flock. I kept it simple and coloured it using distress inks and an aquabrush and added a die-cut hello by Simon Says Stamp.

Fun to see a lot of my colouring from the 30 days all together, I really should make a 30 day collage...

And in other news, I have been having a great craft related few weeks, I got an Honorable Mention again over at CASology and I won first place in the Bugaboo Bingo Challenge - AWESOME..
