This is my second coloring book illustrated by Flora Waycott. The first one was Follow Your Dreams, which I enjoyed so much, I pre-ordered this book as soon as it was available. In Color Me Blessed, Ms. Waycott explores spiritual blessing through scriptural references and inspirational religious sayings. The words take the forefront in the designs but the designs are also quite lovely as well. If a design is based on a Biblical cite, the cite is noted on the back of the page. The designs are detailed but not overly intricate.

I cannot say which translation was utilized as it is not noted in the book. I chose to do one based on Exodus 3:14 I am who I am for my first project in colored pencils and alcohol-based markers.

This is what I found while coloring in this book and testing the paper for use with my coloring medium. In the comments section below, I will include a list of the medium that I used for testing and which I generally use for most of my coloring books.

31 Inspirational and Scripture-based Designs by Flora Waycott

Printed on one side of the page (with Biblical cites, as applicable, on the back of the page.)

Paper is bright white, acid-free (good for archival purposes), heavyweight, smooth, and micro-perforated.

Glue Binding

Designs do not merge into the binding area but many extend slightly past the perforation line.

Alcohol-based markers bleed through this paper. I either remove the page from the book or use a blotter page of card stock under my working page to keep the rest of the book safe from leaking ink.

Water-based markers, gel pens and India ink pens do not bleed through the paper.

Colored pencils work well with this coloring book. I was able to use both wax and oil based pencils equally well for good color, layering and blending (with a pencil style blending stick).
