Morning - well here we are again!
I so look forward to Wednesday's that I get quite cross with myself when I'm not well enough to spend the time visiting you all, last week I didn't do very well at all, but am feeling a little brighter so let's hope I can visit as many people as possible this week.
Okay my desk, pictures first then I'll explain -
Side view
Better view
Close up of my first photo book I made (see my post last night)
Closer view of 'Sporty Boots', my new (& 2nd) digital stamp available from Crafty Boots!
I spent most of yesterday creating my photo book in Craft Artist Pro, then printing it out before learning how to use my 'The Cinch' machine for the first time. So the photo book was left on my desk over night to dry, as I had created the cover separately and stuck it on!
I also started colouring Sporty Boots but got distracted by the photo book. So I plan to finish colouring her in today. But am thrilled with her skin tone, I even managed to create freckles! (Not sure if they show up or not)
Anyway pop over to Julia's at The Stamping Ground to catch up with the rest of the world's greatest desk snoopers!
Right where's that kettle? I need coffee!
Take care Zo xx

Beautiful colouring - you must have a lot of patience.
Good luck with your book - I love my Cinch - am really looking forward to seeing the cover you created.
Thanks for sharing - Hugs, Neet #21 xx
Crafty Boots is looking fabulous and that skin tone is excellent. Had a closer look at the photo and the freckles are so cute. The photo book is great.
Have a great week.

I keep colour charts like that - so helpful. Glad you are feeling a bit better - hope it continues. Thanks for the opportunity of having a peep at your workspace - trying to make a few visits early this week! Hazel, WOYWW #87 x
The colour chart is a really great idea ... I can't believe there are so many copic colours.

I am loving your colour chart. Could do with one of those. As always, your colouring is first class - perhaps one day I will be able to match it?! Happy WOYWW. Ali x #61
Well done you - I have one of those but can't keep it up. Must do better :) Your colouring is lovely, BTW. The skin tone is just beautifully done.

Great projects on the go. x Jo #84
Lovely colouring and such a lot of copics! I started with Promarkers, so I think I'll have to stick with them now, although there seems to be many more shades with the copics.

Fun image, Zoe! (While you're at it, make me a cup, too, okay?)
I didn't have much to show this week, so did WOYWW--The Daughter Edition!

great coloring Zo! I love the freckles on her nose and cheeks! I need to color more but lack the energy here lately. Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving such sweet comments! Vickie #23
Great image Zo, I can see the freckles when I zoom in, lovely skin tone. Great holiday book too, always nice to have a go at something new. Another hot day here but they've promised rain and thunder this afternoon which will cool it back down again!

LOvely image me darlin and cant wait to see it finished, pleased your feeling a tad better now huggies June xxxx
So glad to hear you're feeling a little better now but still sending you lots of hugs full of tlc, and don't worry about visiting when you don't feel up to it, you just look after yourself and take it easy!!!
Take care my lovely friend...
Love Emma xx
Very nice image and the skin tones look great...Can't wait to see the rest.
Thanks for visiting my desk, Sorry i'm a bit late.
Congrats on your digi's, I like your copic colour chart, is it a download from copic that you colour yourself?
Hugz Minxy #11
Oh my! You CAN see the freckles when we enlarge the photo. SO cool! I love it when an image I am coloring comes together so well. For me, it is just an accidental happening. The photo book looks like a lot of fun.
Your skin tones are amazing! Super envious!!!! Have a great week!
There's nothing quite like a nice bit of colouring in, is there? And thank you for reminding me that I need to do some colour charts for my ink pads. And my paint. And my pencils...
Have a great weekend when it comes.
cheers, rachel #19
Brilliant Digi stamp & great colouring too. I still have a very long way to go with marker pens! Hope your feeling better & more perked up! I am feeling ill tonight as I have just moved my desk out & all my craft stuff is packed up :(

You are great with that coloring, Zo! I only own 3 copics, and still havent figured out the shading yet. Thanks for stopping by my space, I am late visiting this week, but better late than not at all! Barb
Hi there Zoe, well your colours pens etc are very scrummy as is your colouring do take care. Thanks so much for popping over and thanks for sharing ~ happy WOYWW! Shaz in Oz. x #25
Thanks for your visit Zo, I am still on my rounds too! I am so impressed that you can use Craft Artist! It must be me because I can't do anything proper with it yet but I keep on trying. Anne x
Lovely card and so sweet. Thanks for popping by my blog.
Eliza #163
Good morning Zo-thanks for popping in to say Hello! Love you neat and tidy desk, along with your fun creations. Took a peek at your book below...very very fun! Your cinch did a great job binding it all together. I love new tools! Have a great day and happy WOYWW!
I too am visiting on Sunday! Scrolling down to find your WOYWW post I cam across your cards. I thought, 'I know that paper'
I bought a set from create and craft and it arrived this week. Unfortunately, I'm too busy to use it, I have to wait another two weeks
Take care
Jakix
I'm late as usual ZO, but you wont mind huh? LOVE the photo book, its wonderful, and I need to get me to Menorca too, it looks beautiful. Bet you're really chuffed aout your new digi gal, she's ace...love your colouring so far, my word you're patient and good at it.
hi zoe,reading your posts,you have been busy colouring and love the chart,see you are organised like me.thanks for visiting me

Hi Zo, thanks for stopping by my blog. I haven't got round many desks this week but am determined to reply to ALL you comment on mine. I may not be a colourer-in person but I dig the colour chart. I have done the same for my distress inks :) I have been debating a book binding device so the cinch looks cool. I did leaf back through your blog and recognised the "Keep Calm" papers - cool aren't they? BJ #47
Yes - her freckles show up! Well done you... I love the copic colour chart, by the way - I always think it's a piece of art itself, don't you?
Thanks for stopping by...
what a cool workspace! Love your copics! I still need some practice with my coloring and shading. Your image is cute! Like your color chart. I need to update mine. Your photo book looks great! Don't you just love the "Cinch"! Great tool if you make lots of these type albums! Valerie #55
