Coloring Book fun with Adornit


Good morning everyone - welcome to my stop on our fun Adornit Coloring Book blog hop! You should be arriving here from my dear friend MariLynn's beautiful blog. I love how there are so many beautiful books these days for adults (though I keep needing to hide mine from my son...sheesh...) and this one is no exception. Super thick paper, whimsical images - I love it!

I received the Critter Friends Coloring Book and it has everything in there from tags to card fronts to full-page works of art. I admit, I was a little intimidated and had no idea where to start. So I closed my eyes, grabbed some markers, and just started coloring.


Yes, I'm not done with the chevrons...LOL I just can't seem to put my markers down and stop coloring! I aws going to leave them white, but then I colored one and...well...then I HAD to take a picture before the sun set. LOL

I just love how my owl turned out!


This quote is one of my favorites. I taped it to the outside of the frame simply because trying to photograph through glass is just a headache. This way you get to see all the pretty colors without the glare!


I have a clue word for you as well. My word is:

to

All right, now you're off to my dear Paula's blog! Happy hopping and crafting, I'm off to color some more!
