The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge

**This is our second post of the day.  To see our latest card inspiration post please see here. **

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 and we are so excited to be a part of it. 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 everyday 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.

To start at the beginning of the hop go to The Daily Marker.  If you are coming from the blog of  Altenew you are in the right place. Kathy has the full blog hop list if you encounter a broken link.

For today's hop I stamped and colored the gorgeous flower image from our new Mimosas Stamp Set and some of my favorite Copic markers.  I die cut the image and popped it up onto a Double Pierced Square die cut.  After stamping and embossing the thank you sentiment from our Sip Sip Hooray stamp set and tying on some Aquamarine Twine the card was complete.  I really enjoyed this challenge!

Now head on over to the next company on the hop - W-Plus 9
