By the way, some of the quote pages in Mary Engelbreit's book just crack me up! Looking forward to coloring some of them!
But I think my next page will be from the Karla Dornacher book.

This picture I finished this morning and it is out of the Birds and Blooms Coloring Book. It was
fun to do.

Hugs and Blessings,

Those gloves are great! They almost look like you could just put them right on.
Fun!

Stephanie, CJ and Peggy your colored pages are beautiful! Here's what I've been up to now and then for the past couple of weeks. The top one is from the Living Colors Volume 1 Book. The bottom one is from Birds and Blooms. I've decided to just leave my pages in the book and keep them together as a sketch book of sorts.

Cheers! ~ Marilyn

I'm going to be using of my coloring pages for letter writing purposes to send for special purposes. I'll make a color photocopy of the page for myself just to keep in my folder. Then I'll trim the original up a bit, give it rounded corners and write my letter on the back. I have plans for two of them right now. I won't use all of my pages for this, but some of them. One way I can share them and write a letter too!

Darlene...my husband said the same thing about the gloves! LOL

Cj...I like your idea about the Letter Writing on some of your pages. You are So Clever.

I thought of doing something similar with using them for Pocket Letters on cutting them up as
the main picture on one side or another.

Marilyn...those are beautiful pictures. Really Nice Job...your colors really pop!

Have something new to share with you in a day or two. Not finished yet.

Hugs and Happy Coloring Girls,
Peggy

These are pictures of a Coloring/Journaling Bible than I am coloring for my Grand-daughter. This is what I wanted to share with you all.
I am so excited about it. I have done one page so far and will share that with you later. But first I wanted you to kind of see a few before shots of this cool Bible. I got it at Barnes and Noble.


This is my latest Coloring Page.

Hugs,
Peggy

I bought some of these coloring books for my 87 year old mom for Christmas and her birthday. She is having a wonderful time with them, and I think it is good for the arthritis in her hands too. Maybe I'll have to give it a try myself!

Bonnie...it is the Whole Bible in the New Living Version. It has Beautiful whole pages in the Front of
the Bible to color...like 6 maybe, then through out the Bible there are lots of smaller Margin Size
pictures to color. I am going to do 75% of the Coloring but leave some for Savannah to do when she gets
to be older. I got the Bible at Barnes and Noble and it cost $39.99 but I had coupons where I saved about
ten dollars on it. The Bible is called Inspire and only comes in one color so far. Hope that answers
your questions Bonnie.

Hugs,
Peggy

Peggy,
The Inspire Bible looks like a pretty big book. Is it something you would want to take to church regularly, or would you consider it too bulky/heavy?

Cj...no you could take it to Church even though it is a Hard Cover Bible. It is like what Older
Bibles were like before they started making them in Slim-Lines and compacts. Hope that helps!

Peggy

The Bible I use and carry is a Ryrie study Bible. I love it and it is a good sized Bible, but with a leather cover. Certainly not a slim-line or compact! It is falling apart but I carry it in a zippered cover/carry case. I may be looking at something else someday!
Thanks much!
