June 30 Day Coloring Challenge - Day 1

I've hopped onto the color train and joined the June 30 Day Coloring Challenge hosted by Kathy of The Daily Marker.

I'm hoping I can keep up with the daily challenges for the next 30 days.  So here is the first assignment...Copic coloring.  I really enjoyed this challenge because we were to do blending with colors that are not the same.  I am used to the blending of 3 colors within the same family of colors.  Not so this time and I am pleased with the results though my technique of blending needs work.

Since the assignment used a butterfly for the stamped image I decided to do the same and chose my Michael Strong butterfly.  What a lovely cloisonné pattern it has which made it a bit more challenging for me to color rather than the typical symmetrical look of a real butterfly.   I then mounted it on a copper panel and onto a dark green card stock.


Thanks for looking and "I'll be back" tomorrow with another coloring assignment.
