Chroma Club Volume 1 Review

I received this book as a gift in exchange for my honest review.

Chroma Club is a relatively new subscription, this month (April 2016) Volume 2 came out. Chroma Club is based out of San Francisco, California and use independent US artists to create their pages. They use US printers and FSC certified and partly recycled paper. Each volume contains 8 pages plus the cover that you can color. The cost is $8 a month.

I read a few reviews complaining about the cost. I would like to put this in perspective for anyone looking to try Chroma Club.

To get a single coloring page on Etsy from a lot of different artists costs between $1.00 and $1.99. And then you also have to print it up so that will also cost you more. So for the price of 9 coloring pages on Etsy you are spending a whole lot more then what Chroma Club costs.

This book is very nice travel size and will fit in a purse easily. It makes it perfect for lunch breaks.

Over all I really like this and am looking forward to seeing what things they have in store for us in the future.

Crown Art Supply Dual Tip Brush Marker REVIEW

Crown Art Supply contacted me and asked my to review their product. I received the product at a discount in exchange for my honest review.

I love using these markers! One side is small so you can get into tiny areas, and the other is a brush tip so it feels like you are painting. This set comes with 12 different colors. Black, Brown, Light Pink, Hot Pink, Red, Orange, Yellow, Light Green, Dark Green, Dark Blue, Light Blue and Purple. I use these for adult coloring books and they are marvelous! I would only use them on pages that are printed on one side though because depending on the quality of paper sometimes it will bleed through a bit. Again that is depending on the paper of the coloring book. I hope they make more colors soon because these are so much fun to work with. I haven't tried a lot of other brands of brush markers so I can't say how they compare to top brands, but they are way better then some of the lower end brands that I have tried.  Check out my artwork on Instagram. @xstitchalanna
