The Daily Marker 30 Day Colouring Challenge Blog Hop with Altenew + GIVEAWAY


No Line Coloring - Altenew Remember This stamp set colored using Faber Castell Classic pencils by @pr0digy0. Sentiment from Spring Daisy set


Hello!
Those who follow me on Instagram already know how much I love to colour and try my best to take part in Kathy Racoosin's The Daily Marker 30 Day Colouring Challenge.
For me this is the time where I push myself and try new things. Last time, I tried rainbow coloured hair! You can check those out HERE and HERE.


The beauty of this challenge is that there are no rules! You can colour for hours or just a few minutes! The goal is to colour something everyday for 30 days, and it's no biggy if you miss a day.

Here is what I created for this hop.

No Line Coloring - Altenew Remember This stamp set colored using Faber Castell Classic pencils by @pr0digy0. Sentiment from Spring Daisy set
Right click and open in new tab for larger view. 

I used foliage from Altenew's Remember This stamp set and the greeting from Spring Daisy stamp set.
I did quite a lot of masking to make this bouquet and oh god the no-line pencil colouring took me AGES to complete but I am SO glad with the result! I love this card, I think I will be framing it.

For my two main flowers, I stamped them separately so that I can cut it out and pop them up for some dimension.
I added some grey shading outside the lines to give an illusion of shadow.

Here is a closer look at the pencil detail.

I used the kid's Faber Castell Classic pencils for this piece.
The gorgeous sequins are from Dress My Craft.
