ADORNIT MPC COLORING BOOK BLOG HOP

Welcome to Adornit-Mountains Plains Crafters blog hop. Today we are  featuring the brand new Adornit coloring books made with heavy artist paper, perfect for multiple paint and coloring mediums.  There will be awesome projects by the MPC design team showcasing the different coloring books. There will be clue words at each stop that will give you the phrase you need to have a chance to win one of these amazing COLORING BOOKS.

 I have loved coloring in coloring books since I was little. Some of my earliest memories were of coloring with my sister. My mom had a box that looked like a little treasure chest. It was filled with crayons. Over the years we added used crayons to that box. As much as I loved coloring with those "used" crayons, I was always thrilled to open a new box of crayons. As I got older I continued my love of coloring with my stamping and crafting. The recent trend of adult coloring books was no surprise to me because I never stopped loved coloring. Now others are realizing and remembering how much fun coloring is. 

 The coloring book that I have from Adornit is CREATIVE FAITH 

 What makes this book special is the paper. It is thick, watercolor artist paper. You can color it with any coloring medium that you choose. I decided to do my project using watercoloring.

 I decided to go with vibrant rainbow colors.

After I finished coloring this page. I added photos of my family and put it in a frame. I am going to put this on my desk in my craft area. 
The secret word that you need to collect from my page is "YOU"
Next on the hop is my friend Jennifer's blog
