Where on earth are the weeks going? Yikes.
Anyway, it’s Wednesday again, and that means it’s time to have a nose around crafty spaces worldwide via WOYWW! I mentioned in last week’s post that I was preparing for the arrival of my new PC. Well, it’s here and has replaced the totes on my desk. Yay!

As you can see, still plenty of room to get crafty, although I have actually mostly been catching up on paperwork. Boooooo! Don’t ask where I put the totes…I keep falling over them…
There has been a little colouring going on though, and here’s a closer look at that!

What do you think? This is actually a very sneaky peek at a new Carmen Medlin for SCACD Stamps image that is being released soon! I am MORE than excited about the release, not least because this particular stamp has to be one of my favourite images EVER. Seriously. I do love cute and whimsical images, but Carmen’s illustration style really speaks to me.
Did you notice? NO COPIC MARKERS. I watercoloured this image with Distress Inks! The papers are from the Graphic45 Le Cirque 8×8 pad.
Oh, and I should tell you that I haven’t revealed all of the image – you’ll have to wait until Sunday for that! In the meantime, what do you think is in the rest of the image? There’s something next to the gorgeous gypsy, what could it be?
It’s very intersting, can’t wait to see all of it.
Looks beautiful…you have me intrigued…
Luv CHRISSYxx
Love the image and the colouring with distress inks is fab!
Happy Creative wednesday

Sneaky sneaky indeed Elaine. 😉 Holy smokes girlie…your Distress Ink watercolouring is STUNNING! Gorgeous depth. I really would love to give this colouring method a go…but I was TERRIBLE at watercolouring in high school! Can’t wait to see the finished project…and hopefully some more details on your watercolouring. 🙂
Beautiful stamp yor colouring is perfect. Hugs Pam x
love your workspace, thank you for sharing. Happy WOYWW 101, not long left until the 2nd anniversary, have you done your PIF? #2
Gorgeous colouring Elaine, truly lovely – I don’t care what she’s hiding – I want the stamp! Also love the new PC, and am boued up that you simply relocated the totes and actually that means you put ’em on the floor. Human beans we are!
wow that image is coloured to perfection Elaine.
Happy WOYWW

ohhhhh I love that image when do we get to see the rest 🙂
What a beautiful image and with your gorgeous coloring – stunning!! I have no idea what the other part of the image is.
I have the same screen monitor that you do! Not sure if it is the same model but it sure looks like it 🙂 Is there anyway you could hang those bags off the side of your desk? Perhaps use hangers like they use to temporarily hang stockings on the mantle at Christmas time? I’m sure you’ll figure something out. Sometimes it just takes a little while living with a problem to figure out a solution 🙂
gorgoeus colouring from one Elaine to another – your new PC looks fab too! Elaine#16
[…] other day you may have caught my very sneaky preview of the image on today’s card. Well, it’s now time to show you the image in all its […]
I am just beginning to work with the Copic Markers and you are now telling me it can be done with distressing inks! I will never keep up with all of this stuff! lol Anyway, I love the colors you used and the way the highlights are in her hair…
