@Johanna, haha! Yep, the thought crossed my mind. I'd probably end up just looking at it. Not sure I'm already brave enough to try coloring using crayons/colored pencil.
I don't know why, but when I was a kid I took one look at my work, found it horrendous, so I stopped doing it. Lol. If I need to color something, I just ask Ate Mae to do it for me. She's so good at that.
Soooo. We used another browser and I roped my husband into coloring one for me. Sharing his final outcome.

I can see Christmas bells in this one! :)
Did Nikolaus leave sweets in your boots? ;)

Yes, how do you know? But you are an elf :-)!
I thought I'd throw in some tile design to... ;)
I'd need another 3 tiles for the big patchwork tile I'm working on... anybody?

So deep and rich...like a glass of burgundy.

I like your Santa mandala a lot, Sabine!

Ha! Good job involving your husband in coloring! :-D His mandala looks very timely for me, because today is Finland's Independence Day and the color scheme for today is blue-ish. (Our flag has blue and white in it.)
Mod
Ooooh! Can't wait to see it!
Yes, ladies, let's see another
(ETA: Sabine made one while I was writing my post — well done!)
I have seen a similar design in an old hotel in Florence.

What about you, btw? Have you colored your mandala already?
There's one spot left, so you can stop hiding your brilliantly colored mandala! :D

Thank you! Fitting it into the whole picture in a second. :)
Today, I feel very christmassy :-)

I would love to have a quilt like this. How fun all this was. Thank you all for an enjoyable, colorful weekend.

Ah, so gorgeous! They all look so wonderful! Thank you for the fun time coloring! I'm glad no one got ink on Josh's sofa this time! :D
And congrats to the winners.

Congrats to all the winners!!!!
I was at Barnes and Nobles today looking at all of the coloring books. There was one just with mandalas.
Calathea wrote: "Even such a colorful party like ours has to come to an end and look how awesomely creativ you guys have been!"Thank you for everything, but please throw my prize back in the hat, because I already have the book.
Beautiful and congrats to the winners!! :-D
Congrats to all the winners! I love that the code lets you color than paste in here, too. Wow. :-D

That reminds me of the afghans my grandmother used to have! So gorgeous!

Your book is on its way to Goge now, because Goge asked me to give her colored pencils to charity for children whose families can't afford to buy Christmas presents. But... because Goge didn't have the JL coloring book, I thought we'd pay it forward and give her your book, Antonella.
And Loretta already had colored pencils and Love is a Many-Colored Thing, so her prize is currently on it's way to the next randomly picked winner who is Josephine!
What a kind, sharing bunch you guys are. Hugs all around. :-)
This is one beautiful group of people :-).

I hope you enjoy it very much!
Loretta wrote: "I hope you enjoy it very much!..."@Loretta, thank youuuuuuuuuu! <3 I'm sure I will! <3 First time owning a coloring book. :) I used to have plenty of Letter Writing Practice Books but not coloring books. Maybe because I used to dislike it? I once colored something and I thought it looked horrendous. Lol.

Well, this was supposed to be a colorful rainbow mandala, but obviously, linking it failed. *shrugs*
I just got my book!!!! Thank you, Johanna :0)! Well, thank you all who organize these wonderfully fun games and gifts!
Mod
Cool. :-) Just in time for the Holidays! Thank you for letting us know, Goge.
Guys! I got my book last Wed and blogged about it! <3https://josephinelitonjua.wordpress.c...

You only received the book last week?! When I gifted them (book + colored pencils) during the Christmas holidays Amazon told me that the estimated delivery date for the book was somewhere between Jan. 6 - Jan. 26! OMG — There was two months delay! Well, in any case I'm happy that the parcel found you eventually. *phew* :-)
And thank you so much for blogging about the coloring book and other Josh's books, dear Josephine! I'm so glad you like Love is a Many-Colored Thing. I love hearing which illustrations you guys like the best. :-) You're so sweet. ♥

Aaaaand I find it especially delightful that our launch party mandala games and the coloring book together inspired you to do some coloring — something you didn't enjoy doing before. I think that's so cool!

Nice blog entry, and.... better late than never for the parcel!
Thank you, guys! For dropping by my blog! <3@Johanna and Antonella, yes! I received the colored pencils around the end of January I think and I was like, okay, the book will probably arrive next week I'll wait for it then blog about this together. But Feb ended and it didn't! And March is almost over and I was like, if it doesn't arrive before April, it's never going to arrive. :( (Obviously this happened to me many times before and some letters and package don't make it to me).
At the same time I tried not to worry because it was a registered mail but then I've never waited this long before (the longest had been a month). The bubble padded envelope was actually dusty like the package had been stored somewhere else first. :P Where it went during that two extra months is a mystery. :D
