Blessings to you on your life's journey. |

Vanessa that Paisley turned out really pretty. Very Retro 70's!
Alise...we all had to learn to post pictures on MJF, trust me when I say...it is soooooooo much easier than it use to be!! Isn't it CJ? But once you know how...you can rock posting more and more to all the Threads on MJF!
hugs and smiles, Peggy

Thanks for everyone's encouragement about posting pics! And I just want to clarify for some that Vanessa did the wonderful coloring of the paisleys- I get to do the fun chickens.
Blessings to you on your life's journey. |

I'm glad y'all like it! I wanted to limit myself to black, browns, grays, and some yellows. It would have looked great with metallic colors, but the pencils I ordered are coming by a slow boat from China, so I just have to wait.

Wonder of wonders! I got the metallic pencils yesterday! The few samples I did don't look so different though.

Vanessa...I love working with Metallic Pencils. They have a softer look to them that I like on occasion. Like I've said before I lean towards bold and bright and sparkly but I do have those rare moments when I love that soft silvery look that metallic pencils give. Can't wait to see your picture when it is done.
Right now I am working on 3 different pictures. One is a Gray Wolf whose body is full of little itty-bitty pictures in the fur of the wolf. I find it taxing not relaxing but will finish it eventually. The second is another Inspirational Word Picture that I am doing for a friend from Bible Study. Her Word from the Lord this year was "Knock" and the page I am doing for her is "Ask, Seek, Knock". It is simple but pretty and she will love it. I will frame it for her when I am done. The Third is a big Framed Piece of Coloring Art I got from Barnes and Noble last month. They sell them for $9.99 (good price for Black Metal Frame, Glass, and Coloring Picture). They come in only two subject matters...Floral and an Owl. I bought the Owl for my DIL for her birthday and the floral for me. I am a third of the way through the floral and I am Loving it. I will go back Monday and get me an Owl one too. These I am making to Decorate my Foyer once I take down my Valentine Decorations. And yes, you guessed it...I'm doing them in Glitter Gel Pens. I will post pictures of ALL when I get them done. I color every night to wind down from my day. Hubby goes off to his Computer and I plug in an Audible Book and drag out my Colors and just sit at my Dining Room Table and Relax. I love it!

The metallic pencils are nice, I have some but haven't used them much, but sure will give them a try.

CJ...I don't know if I'm Ambitious or Overly Stressed!!! LOL But I am always busy!!! I forgot to tell you that I should have ordered the same Pencil Sharpener that you did...because my new one doesn't work that well. At least not any better than what I already had. Oh, well...you win some and you lose some!
You and Robin will have fun finding Coloring Supplies when you go shopping together. Glad you are saving it to enjoy with her.
Hugs, Peggy

Peggy, I do like the Prismacolor sharpener! It does work well and I'm able to get a nice sharp point and have very little lead breakage (that usually only occurs with the Crayola brand pencils)
Robin and I will have fun shopping and then we can color together. It's nice on her patio in March . . .it's Phoenix and not long after March it'll be geting unbearably hot to be outside. CJ

Ladies, I was just thinking about starting a thread about coloring- what you use, when you see new books come out, etc. Whatcha think?
