6th 30 Day Coloring Challenge Preview

Hi everyone!

I'm sure most of you heard about Kathy's Racoosin 30 day coloring challenge. If not, here is a brief introduction.

Kathy of The Daily Marker started super fun challenge 30 Day Coloring Challenge in March 2015 and organizes it couple of times a year. In November 2016 was the 6th challenge. The goal of the challenge is to color something daily even if it's a few minutes. For more information, jump over to Kathy's blog. :o)

I've participated in each challenge since it started, but never colored all 30 days. This time, the 6th 30 Day Coloring Challenge, I did. :o)

There were days I colored only couple of minutes and days I colored for hours. Mostly I colored in evenings and at nights, after I finished my daily obligations. I used various coloring mediums and colored in various techniques. There were days I messed up everything I started (days 9 and 11), but didn't throw away colored papers. I left those and will try to use them for something (background or paper piecing). It was super fun and a great practice for my coloring. I improved in shading, which makes me super happy. :o)

I didn't share my daily progress anywhere (here on my blog or social medias), I only shared couple finished cards here on my blog as the challenge was going on, so I'm bringing a preview today. Below each photo I added link to a published card, if it's already published. For those unfinished and unpublished, I'll update this post and add links after I publish cards/projects. :o)

Here is a day by day preview. :o)
