Favourite Colouring Medium (and why)?

Welcome to As You Like It Challenge

Our fortnightly challenge is a home for you to create something 
which gives you a warm "inner glow" of pride, without lots of entry rules.




CHALLENGE RULES:

Usually we provide 2 or more contrasting options for you to choose from. 
Join us by using your favourite option within your creation. 

To be eligible to win our prize, or top-3 spot, 
you must explain why you've made your choice,
so we can appreciate why you're proud of your creation!

eg, if the theme is 'favourite animal' and you decide on 'rabbits', 
maybe the reason is that you love Thumper, the bunny from Bambi !

So get crafting and remember the main requirement in creating is 
to have fun and enjoy your crafting time!

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 
Your Favourite Colouring Medium (& why).
You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:



My favourite colouring medium is my disress ink reinkers which I use for watercolouring almost every project. I have recently been learning coloured pencil drawing but I've not managed to use them very successfully for my cards, and I find the watercolouring quite therapeutic anyway, so it's not a bad thing to have both mediums for different hobbies.






I must say, Copic markers are my favorite.  I love the way they blend and I have more experience with them.  I haven't given up on colored pencils, yet, I'm just still trying to get the hang of them.






My favourite colouring medium are Promarkers and Copics. I love the range of colours and the easy way they blend. 







I use copics the most as I have had them from the start of my crafting journey, have lots of them and am more used to the way they blend.  I sometimes have a play with Zig markers, mainly for flowers though.



I love my Promarkers. I have tried many other alcohol markers but always go back to what I know. They blend together beautifully and layer for shading brilliantly too.





I love my Copic markers. They are so easy to blend and there are so much colours.




It's over to you.

We hope you will join in our challenge and show us your style.
Don't forget, you MUST explain WHY it is your favourite to be eligible to win.

Good luck, and happy crafting.
Hugs from the AYLI girls.
