Video : 30 Day Coloring Challenge Blog Hop with Altenew!

lostinpaper-altenew-30-day-color-challenge-2017-card-video-1-copy

challenge_graphic-mar16_plain-650-copy-1I am so excited to be taking part in Kathy Racoosin’s 30 Day Coloring Challenge with Altenew.  Please visit the Altenew Blog to learn more about The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge blog hop and leave a comment on the Altenew Blog for a chance to win a giveaway, there are more Prize deets below.

For my card I thought it would be fun to change it up a bit and use a totally fun technique that I love to do but rarely remember which is to colour directly onto design or patterned paper.
