Hello fellow snoopers & anyone else who pops by that isn't actually snooping through the desks of the WOYWW world.
Confused? Not sure what I'm on about? Well pop over to Julia's - Queen of desk snooping to found out for yourself.
Right desk -

Looking straight on.
As you can see .......more colouring! As you know I'm a huge colourer-inner and love the challenge of bringing these fab images to life. I often print out my digital stamps quite large, makes it easy to blend etc but now I'm into my Smash Books I wanted some smaller images so I got myself a Some Odd Girls stamp (bought from Crafty Boots - Photo Kaylee) and a couple of others. But I couldn't resist colouring this fab Saturated Canary image in either!
What do you think? Am getting more confident with the shading and hair I reckon, but as they say 'Practice makes perfect' so good excuse to keep colouring!
Thank you all for all the wonderful well wishes, I had a really bad weekend but am feeling a bit better again today. Just one of those things with my conditions - I've got a hospital appointment on Monday to see the Consultant again. Who knows what he'll come up with - hopefully something to help me cope a little better than I seem to be at present.
I may not be around next week, though I'll try my best, I'm having a small minor op on Tuesday (nothing major just some skin problem that needs to be cut out) but I'm expecting stitches and a reaction with my conditions. Fingers crossed it'll be smooth going and I'll be back snooping, but if I'm not, well I'm not and I'll see you the following week!
Take care everyone - be seeing you soon.

Morning Zo your colouring is brilliant you've seemed to have mastered it alright, gorgeous. I hope you are feeling better soon and all the best for next week. Take care and big hugs. Caroline xxx
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW. I hope that I can colour as well as you one day. Been busy this week with Xmas cards - but planning to get my Copics out of their box soon and have a practice. Sorry to hear you had a bad weekend. This weather is not helping. Makes my pain worse and my spirit depressed. Need sunshine!! Gentle hug for after the operation, and hope that the consultant can be of some use. Ali x #70
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better soon!

ReplyDeleteLooks like you have LOTS of fun coloring to do! Your beach babe looks adorable!

Zo - your colouring-in is fantastic. I keep well away from it myself as I can do nothing like you can. All the best for the minor op and the especially with the recovery. Thanks for stopping by BJ#4
ReplyDeleteYour colouring is adorable! Happy WOYWW and have a great week! kissinia
ReplyDeleteYour colouring is great! Hope next week goes well and you don't suffer too much afterwards. will be thinking of you. Helen, 26
ReplyDeleteHi Zo, Thanks for coming by to visit me already! Your coloring is fab! All the best with the op on Tuesday and a smooth recovery! Darnell #55
ReplyDeletehappy woyww, fantastic job on the colouring, i hope all goes well and they sort you out, all the best, mark
ReplyDeleteYour colouring is so good. You have mastered the copics definitely! I love them too and like you, I work with a colour chart to hand, but I made my own on the paper I use most often, so I could see the colour the pens actually make on that paper. I didn't find the computer downloaded one very accurate. Digi images are great for colouring. I obviously need to take a leaf from your book and practise more. Kate 137 xx
ReplyDeleteYour coloring is so awesome!! I love making what I call "shiny hair". Your gal has beautifully shaded hair!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your surgery!!! Take care!!

Best of luck with all you are coping with - hope little op goes well. x Jo #72
ReplyDeleteNice colouring. I have awarded your blog with an award ‘The Versatile Blog’ and if you want to have a read about it please see my blog. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteYour colouring in is awesome, believe you me!! Practise definitely makes perfect. I love the term colourer inner, sums it up really!
ReplyDeleteHope all goes well with all you health issues - sending positive vibes and hugs :)

Your coloring is so fabulous. I thought the girl with the life ring was one of those store-bought card toppers since she was so perfectly colored and shaded. I try to pretend I know what I'm doing with shading and blending but I doubt I fool anyone. Good luck at the doctor's and with getting that procedure done.
ReplyDeleteHi Zo, fab colouring as always! Will share some of mine when I get around to it!!
ReplyDeleteI had a similar minor op last week, stitches come out tomorrow - yippee!!! been itching like mad, and is right in centre of my back, so canlt reach the blasted itchy bit!
Good luck with yours, sure it will go well
hugs

ReplyDeleteHi Zo your colouring is amazing I so wish I could colour like that. I've not been about for a couple of weeks so sorry to read you've not beenn too well. Hope the 'little op' goes well - they can knock you about!!! Take care#150 Anne x
ReplyDeleteZoe oh my goodness you have so mastered the coloring. I love it. I just discoverd Saturated Canary about a month back and bought a bunch of images. You have really mastered the skin and hair (two areas I still keep working on).
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon. I am sending health and happiness through this message.
Thanks for visiting my desk today.

I love your little beach babe! The shading is awesome! I hope that your surgery goes well and that the coplication with the stitches are minor. Will keep you in our prayers. You will be back on the blog in in no time ;) Thanks for visiting! -Amanda x61
ReplyDeleteHi Zo! I'm so sorry to hear you've been under the weather- I'll be sending good thoughts your way next Tuesday for your op. Now onto the coloring- it looks fabulous! I love the shading of her skin tone and that's a great color combo for her hair :) Practice truly is the key- which, lucky for us, means we get to color more! I look forward to seeing what you do next. Hugs, Katie
ReplyDeleteIf I could colour half as good as you I'd be terribly happy, it is awesome.
ReplyDeleteBridget #27

Will be thinking of you next week, hope it all goes well and no bad reactions! Your coloring is fabulous! waving hi from the hot hills of North Carolina :)
ReplyDeleteI think your colouring is absolutely stunning, Zo - fabulous shading! You have obviously mastered it completely!
ReplyDeleteHope your op goes OK - having read that paragraph I went over to your "about me" page and read everything - I am so sorry to hear about everything you have to put up with - it really stinks, doesn't it. Makes me all the more amazed at the beautiful stuff you create!!
Thanks for your lovely comment on my blog. I am starting to feel a lot better now after a pretty awful week - but it was self-inflicted because I seriously overdid it, knowing full well I'd get the inevitable payback. I do realise, though, having read your piece, that in comparison, I hve very little to complain about!!
Hugs, and happy belated WOYWW,
Shoshi #15
