Hello, crafty friends!
Welcome to "The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge" Blog Hop. Kathy Racoosin from The Daily Marker wants to share her love of coloring with you. Today, Kathy has assembled a blog hop to give your creativity a jump start with some of her favorite stamp companies & Online Card Class partners.
The premise of “The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge” is to color something every day even if it’s for five minutes. (However feel free to jump in or out as time permits). Any coloring medium is welcomed. Click here to find out where to share what you are coloring and join the encouraging community of happy colorists PLUS answers to other questions you may have.
Here's what I colored up for today:
I just adore this Vintage Easter Egg digital stamp from Power Poppy, don't you? There are so many options for how to color it up too! I paired it with pale patterned paper from Lilybee Design's Victoria Park collection.
I printed the image on X-Press It Blending Card in black ink, and colored it with the following Copic Markers.
The sentiment inside the little tag on the image is from the Dynamic Duos: Peonies & Tulips stamp set. The pretty sequins are from Pretty Pink Posh. I used a mix of 4mm & 6mm sequins.
Here's a look at the inside of my card:
I printed the sentiment from Power Poppy's Joyful Lilies digital stamp set in a rich pink color, and stamped the beautiful lilly image from Hero Arts stamp set called Marianne's Flowers underneath in a soft blue violet ink. A strip of coordinating patterned paper dresses it up just the right amount.

Thank you very much for showing the inside of your card. When making cards that's where I always seem to get stuck, but rarely are the insides of cards posted. Thank you for sharing.
