Thanks, Jodi! It definitely seemed to work for me. It took the stress out of the coloring and gave me room to play, something I really needed for Christmas. 🩷
Omg! What a fun and happy gallery of completed works. That marker/acrylic combo was eye opening. Might have to give that a try! Tfs and looking forward to whatever videos you put into the universe 😊😊
Yeah, the marker acrylic thing is definitely a trend and is still happening in these early days of 2025. It's just bringing me joy so until it stops, I'll keep doing it. 😄
Hi ellie, Thank You so very much for Sharing All of Your Beautiful and Adorable finished pictures! Thank You for the mention! You did great, adding in your buddy colors.💜💜
What a fun video you did get a lot of pages done and they are all adorable ! And thank you for the buddy colors this last month to ! Looking forward to to more ❤
I agree! It's all about enjoying the process. 🩷 and besides, markers are fun! My default is apology mode and i need to get out of that. Thanks for the reminders.
Fabulous month. I like your idea of focusing on just alcohol markers. I have tried to do that in the past but it never worked out for me as after one page I go on to some other medium... And oh my God that page you didn't like - I thought it was fabulous!! It looks really great on camera. Happy coloring.
It's never worked for me either! 😆 this was the first time. I really have very limited time at the holidays and barely do any coloring. I was determined to make this year different. I put all the mediums I was going to use on the desk and when I colored I only went as far as I I'll and then stopped. I think that is why I wasn't keen on every page because if it was any other month I would have been adding acrylic paint and watercolor and anything else I wanted so somehow the pages didn't look quite done to me if that makes sense. If they were anyone else's page I could say they were done. My own worse critic LOL
I love all your pages! But I especially loved your page in Mangatopia Tiny Kawaii and the reindeer page in Color Me Christmas. I also loved your pages in Color Yuletide, Hello Retro Christmas, tokidoki, Fairy Homes and the freebie page advent calendar from Gabi Wolf. I don’t know why you didn’t like your Fairy Home page, I thought it was great! I saw so many coloring books that I want to look into! I’ll have to check out more of your videos! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much! I really appreciate you noticing the details and your kind words! I wasn't a huge fan of the fairy house because I set limits for myself as to how long to spend on a page and what mediums I would use so it didn't exactly finish the way I envisioned. At some point I may go back and add shading and more detail and then i will be happier with it. Also it could be because setomes I am too picky. 😆 if you can't find flips of any of the books you are interested in, let me know and I'll try to get a flip made. Happy coloring an thanks for hanging out with me!
omg, that Tiny Animals page is too cute. Your additions to the page are impressive! That Dimensions book is so cool. I think your channel and @ZucchiniKitty are the only two I've seen do work in it - but then, maybe I'm just not watching allll the channels. 😉 I'd be very interested to see how you cull your pencil set collection, if/whenever you decide to do that! ❤
Thanks, sweetie! I really had fun with the tiny animals page and the dimensions book is really cool! But you know me, I'm always trying to do extra instead of letting it be. The book really is set up where you can just flat color and it's still really pretty. I've got a few videos coming soon for each of my crayon sets, if you watch them let me know if you like that format and I will do it for all my pencil sets too. I'm destashing but at a very slow pace. I want to revisit the supplies and be really, really sure. 😉
Lovely pages. I also use alcohol markers a lot, no colouring purist here😂. It reminds me of one colouring channel that commented on my completed pages a while ago stressing my pages were really MIXED MEDIA pages 😂😂😂
😆 yes! There is nothing wrong with mixed media. In fact, I think it makes our pages better. It's interesting that someone commented about it. I think it would be quite boring to only use one medium always. 🩷
Great to see you colouring again ❤ Jackie
Thank you! I'm so glad to be back! Still getting the hang of things but I'm having fun. 🩷
I think your plans for simple fun colouring in Dec was perfect. All your pages are fun and cheerful so well done 🫶🏻🥳

I love our buddy colors sis! 🩷
Beautiful pages! No need to apologize for using mostly alcohol markers, there are no coloring rules I am aware of except to enjoy yourself. ❤

Not to enable, but you really should, it's a great book! And then maybe a buddy color?
@ next Christmas
