Today's post brings some new firsts for me. This is the first time I've participated in the 30 Coloring Challenge and also the first time using my Zig Markers. I bought them quite awhile ago, but kept reading other bloggers struggling with them, so I kept putting off using them. I can see why. I'm not real thrilled with the way my background turned out. I wished afterwards, I had used watercolor paper then I could have blended out the coloring. I'm not going to beat myself up too much, at least I tried them. I'll keep working with them from time to time. I do love how bright the colors are. 
I have been following the 30 day coloring challenge for quite some time, but just never took the time to actually participate. I even when to Starbucks and picked up a couple of cups from last fall to color them as Kathy did. What's even more funny is the fact that was the first time I had ever been in a Starbucks as I'm not a coffee drinker. Can't stand the taste or smell of coffee.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I love it when you do. Enjoy the rest of your week.
Yea for you in ALL your "first's" Sue! I think both of your backgrounds turned out just lovely and colorful! And yes, I struggle with the Zigs too, but so glad you finally gave them a try! They are beautifully intense colors, so definitely worth working at, and I would never have known your backgrounds were your first try with them if you hadn't said anything...I think they both turned out absolutely lovely!! :0)
ReplyDeleteSue, you're so funny! I love how you stepped out of your comfort zone on so many occasions in making these cards. Your coloring is perfect and so cheerful!
