I really enjoyed this 10 day mandala challenge! It was something I looked forward to each day and give myself just a few "me" moments. It was so meaningful to have a theme to concentrate on each day as well while drawing.I love that I have a full page of reference designs to create my own. I have made a few for friends and they have loved them! This gift has encouraged them to take some relaxing time to sit down and color them in, so I feel it's a double bonus! Thanks so much for sharing your expertise!

Inspired by another class, I learned how to draw a botanical mandala, and then I made my own with white gel pen on black paper.

I learned how to make this design from another class and add botanical elements like mushrooms, butterflies and flowers that were inspired by some botanical coasters that I received as a gift recently.

I made this one for a friend who is in a very busy work season and she colored the whole thing in a few days as she said it helped her take relaxing breaks! I loved adding an encouraging quote as well.

Another original design for a friend! The possibilities are endless!
