My December Challenge with Brea Reese Products - Part One

It was a busy December!

Brea Reese was having a challenge and I had picked up some of there products and had never opened them. What better time to open each and every product that I had from them and USE them!!!
I had watercolor glitter inks, watercolor inks. watercolor duel tip markets and even some fine line markers. Heck yeah, I can do this!

What was I thinking when I decided to do a 31 day challenge in DECEMBER?

Who does that?

I tried in October and FAILED and that is my favorite month!!!!


I decided I could do this and I did! During this journey I fell in LOVE with these products! The more I used them the more I loved them. I am looking forward to using them often in many different works of art.

I want to share the journey with you! Some were hard and challenged me. I wish I had more time to spend on each of the drawings, but it is December! 

One a day! 

Just like a vitamin! LOL!
