I am SO far behind it isn’t even funny. If only I could just pop the world on pause for a few hours to get caught up!
Anyway, since it is WOYWW this is my desk today (click the pics for a larger version). You can see a few projects that are “in progress”. The main one is a new baby card for our 9 day old niece! Hopefully I’ll finish this before she’s walking…
Love that stamp – it’s one of the gorgeous Whimsy Stamps Carousel Horses by Crissy Armstrong. I had SO much fun colouring it. The odd thing? I had been putting off playing with these stamps, despite being completely in love with them, as I was a little intimidated.
Yeah, I was being a baby because there are so many beautifully coloured examples out there (many of them by Crissy herself). Anyway, I’m glad I finally jumped in, this image was a total joy to colour. Note to self – stop being such a baby!!
Happy Wednesday! I’ll be back tomorrow with something fun, and with any luck something finished to share!
gorgeous colouring ~ad congrats on your new niece!

Oooooh – I love the stamp!! Might have to get me one of those!

Hard to believe you’d be intimidated by any coloring – yours in always so beautiful!! Love seeing how you lay your image on top of your paper and write down the Copic numbers – great idea! Can’t wait to see the completed card! {{hugs}}
Lovely tidy desk and the stamp is beautifully coloured – you were obviously wrong to be scared because you’ve done a great job – and the paper behind will go well. Elizabeth #98
I know what you mean about those carousel horses – I follow Whimsy and would love to give them a try but have seen SO many spectacularly coloured horses that I know I couldn’t do them nearly as nicely. Yours looks fab!

Gosh that is a lovely image Elaine – I understand your reluctance to get started, but I think you aced it, really!
Elaine, what gorgeous colouring. I know what you mean about some images. I’m like that with some of the Sarak Kay ones. Thanks for sharing your workspace. Best wishes, Kym xxx (WOYWW No 36)
You’re too sweet Elaine, and you have NO need to be intimidated, my gosh, that’s nonsense! Your colouring inspires me! Thanks for the kind words though. But you are amazing and don’t you forget it! So where’ s the card, huh? I’m so anxious to see!
