Challenge 286 *Autumn Colours*

 Welcome to our challenge #286

Our optional twist for this month is Autumn Colours!

We are delighted to have The Coloring Channel as our sponsor again this month (formally Kit and Clowder) and the DT has really enjoyed Alyce's Autumn Leaves tutorial.

The Coloring Channel is the first learning platform built for colourists. It hosts Alyce's 12 years of teaching with over 300+ classes for markers and pencils, rewards to unlock, search exactly what you want, progress tracking and more. Everything you need to make colouring easier and more enjoyable.

Alyce is offering 1 month free access to the channel for one lucky, randomly chosen winner!

Let's take a look at what the DT have been creating with their colouring class:

Challenge #284 *Shimmer and Shine*

 We are now past mid summer and the evenings are starting to slowly draw in again, but we are also in the time of year when the weather is at its hottest in the Northern Hemisphere. Therefore, we have the optional theme of shimmer and shine for this month, reminding us of the sun shining off almost anything.

Our lovely sponsor for this month is Love to Color and here are the designs from the DT for inspiration and to showcase some of the images you can get from our sponsor.
