@gentlelunette: @PurplePeony: I haven't done a pattern one yet so maybe that's why I haven't experienced that yet!
-
I've been wanting to try adult coloring books for a while but haven't taken the plunge just yet, but everyone's pics are making me want to!
-
@starlitsky: No pressure but... do it.
-
I did it!
-
@starlitsky: do it! @.twist.: can't wait to see one of yours! @2farmmoms: That is awesome, nice job!
-
I've been stalking this thread since the beginning... My mom gifted me some markers & nice pencils, but I only have pattern coloring books... I think I need some of these ones you guys are using!
-
@2farmmoms: wow, so pretty!
-
Okay, here is one of mine -- right now, I only have a book of mandalas (can't find my William Morris one, I don't know where I put it
). They're not my favorite so I need to get a new book soon, but it keeps me occupied for now...
ETA: sorry for the crummy photo, it was dark out and the overhead light caused the shadow and glare.
-
@PurplePeony: I think it looks great and even if you don't like the coloring, I think your shading is great!
-
@MamaG: this is actually one I do like! I haven't finished most of the ones I'm on the fence about or decided I dislike.
-
@Bao: I am almost done one page. I feel like it's taken me forever, but I'm super happy with the results. I'll probably be able to post it tonight!
LOVE the addition of newly completed pages!
-
@PurplePeony: I think it looks great! Maybe try enchanted forest next, to switch it up
@.twist.: can't waaaaait!
-
I got so inspired, I bought them for all the gals I know for part of their Christmas present.
-
@simplyfelicity: oh my gosh!!! Jealous!
-
@Bao: My husband thought it might be a lame gift and I was like, "you just don't get it."
-
@simplyfelicity: he needs to see this thread
-
Has anyone pre-ordered Lost Ocean?
-
@Bao: I am going to either tonight or tomorrow. Just about to post my first page!
Here it is, my first piece. Sorry for the slight blur, apparently I'm all shakes tonight?? lol
-
@.twist.: yaaaay!!
-
@.twist.: Gooooorgeous!
-
@.twist.: It's beautiful! Are these with markers?
-
@Bao: I did! So excited for it! I'm a SCUBA diver so and ocean book is right up my alley!
-
@.twist.: I love love love it!
-
@Mrs.KMM: jealous! I want it so bad.
-
@.twist.: Beautiful!!!
-
@2farmmoms: that looks beautiful!
@PurplePeony: that looks lovely! I'm partial to pattern books, so I really like that one
@simplyfelicity: that's a great Christmas gift! Hopefully they love it as much as we all seem to. Haha.
@.twist.: that's gorgeous!!! Love the shading!
-
Thanks ladies! Started my next page and can't wait to add it here with all the other beautifully done pages!
@simplyfelicity: Nope, they are pencils.

Does anyone have Color Crush: An Adult Coloring Book for the Modern Girl?

I just ordered the Forest and Garden ones and a set of watercolor pencils! Im super excited for them to get here.
I really want the Cities one. I love the cityscape of London thats in there.
-
@loveisstrange: awesome!! What exactly are watercolor pencils anyway?
-
@Bao: Haha, I ordered after I saw you post on Facebook about it. Watercolor pencils apparently can be wet and spread like watercolor paints. Ive never used them, but Im excited to experiment.
-
@loveisstrange: definitely let me know what you think, I may try them!
-
Wow - this looks like so much fun, but I'm not creative at all. I think my 3 yr old would do better at the designs than me LOL
-
@BabyBoecksMom: you don't have to be creative! That's the thing, just throw colors down. At least that's what I do
-
@starlitsky: No, but it looks pretty! Very Rifle Paper Co-esque from the cover. I wish Amazon showed more pages!
-
@loveisstrange: I'm really interested to hear your thoughts/review of the water colour pencils! Those sound wonderful!
-
@badgermom yes! I love Rifle Paper Co so this one caught my eye! Plus I feel like I want to start with simpler designs before moving on to more complicated patterns. I might order it and give it a try.
@bao @loveisstrange I've used watercolor pencils before, years ago! They are really nice, you color with the pencils first and then go over with a wet brush to achieve the watercolor effect. However, if the paper you're using isn't thick, it might buckle from the moisture.
-
I ordered staedler markers & then went away for our anniversary trip - and now they're sitting in my mailbox at home waiting! (They were supposed to be delivered on Friday).
Is it sad I can't wait to get home and start using them?
-
@sera_87: hahaha nope, not sad!
-
Jumping on the bandwagon - excited to get started!
). They're not my favorite so I need to get a new book soon, but it keeps me occupied for now...
@.twist.: can't waaaaait!
