What an aftermath! Many of you had trouble seeing the rocking horse I showed last week, so here it is removed from under my sewing machine and now in plain sight.
There's nothing on my desk or my sewing machine this week. My ATC is racing its way to Minxy in the UK. Of course I'm not going to show it until she gets it. This is from a scan where I used the "liquify" filter in Photoshop. Hope it makes sense once I show it when Minxy gets it.Now let's hop over to Julia's Stamping Ground for the rest of the aftermath of this wild Wednesday blog hop. You'll be glad you did. And please don't forget your number when you visit!

Hi Elizabeth, lovely to see the rocking-horse this week. And what you've done to your ATC is fantastic - love the mix of colours and look forward to seeing it unscrambled next week. Have a lovely WOYWW. Elizabeth x too early to have a number :)
He's Christmasy and kind of Scandinavian looking at the same time. That liquifying thing is strange, but compelling. Have a good one! :)
wow, at first I thought that ATC was a new background you've been working on! lol I can't wait to see it, I'm showing mine this week...too hard for me to keep secrets, lol waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)
Love your rocking horse, he is a fine fellow. That squidgied ATC is super, can't wait to see the normal one. The colours all mix in fabulously.
Have a great week.

can't wait to see the ATC... have a great week
Can't wait to see the ATC. I've been so busy lately and didn't get in on the 3rd anniversary festivities!
hi there Elizabeth - yes you are right still in love with England!! but we have always sat up and watched all the royal events kinda mad about - and yes you have totally distorted the atc so we have not idea of it! Shaz in Oz.x
PS meant to say thanks for popping over - clicked it before I had finished! der! Shaz. #8
The liquified ATC looks fab :D
Have a great day!

Wow your liquified ATC looks fantastic. Your rocking horse turned out beautifully. Sandra @36
Hiya, happy WOYWW to you. Hope you have a good old creative week. Thanks for the peek into your world. Fun effect with the ATC!

Hi Elizabeth, yep dead excited and even made another Jubilee spread in my AB yesterday. Thought I'd keep it for another post but have to say I was inspired by "your" background homework. Seems I need more stuff like that as this background stuff and paint is alien to me as a scrapper! - LOL. I did get into a right fix with the paint and got it on my last Jubilee page so had to re-do some of that aswell! Did get out some grease proof paper to put inbetween the pages to stop them sticking untill they are completely dry but still need to resort to baby powdering the pages - LOL. BJ#32
Oooh your rocking horse is a magnificent specimen, really lovely fellow. Loving your ATC, love using that technique, I don't do it often enough, thanks for reminding me! Have a happy WOYWW, Anne x #24
What a gorgeous image, can't wait to see it fully. Helen, 16
Wonderful image. Can't wait it see the ATC
Happy WOYWW

Interesting tease! Liquify huh~ It has been a cool week here in Okieland this past week. I am so glad that the storms have been getting less fierce but I am dreading the heat of the summer this year. Hope some of you plants are recovering after last weeks beating! Thanks for sharing and have a great week. Vickie #51
Liquify? Too clever for little old me :-)
Hugs,
A x #59
thought it was just my eyes playing up but pleased you were just 'liqufying'....lol
have a fab crafty week
kay #52
Love the colours on the ATC and I actually think it would make an awesome ATC just as you have posted it!
Happy WOYWW
That looks like a lot of paint mixed up - something I would love to do - ooh, want to get my finger in there.
Now I am sure I have seen that rocking horse before - where I ask?
Thanks for sharing, Hugs, Neet #6 xx
Glad you enjoyed the Jubilee too - we've had a ball in the UK and rediscovered our patriotism, I think.. The splurgy red pic looks like something from the Space journey in 2001 - a Space Odyssey!! LOL
Hugs, LLJ #70 xx
Love the liquify filter... I'll investigate that asap! It looks like it will be the rocking horse in the previous pic morphed!
Thanks for popping in on me... in haste this week as we're off to Germany to see family! woo hoo!
Love joZarty x
MY AB is on the way but life has intervened!
Oh you are too clever! The liquify filter has given you a whole new background...I must confess to trying really hard to work out what the picture is...but I can't!
Hi Elizabeth
I am SO happy that my ATC made it safely to your home! I don't know why our e-mails don't talk any more - I miss chatting with you!
Anyway, great share and I'm loving the latest tutorial a few posts down - don't forget to share at Inspire Me Monday (I'd email you but it isn't working, lol!)
Have a wonderful week and give Bleubeard a hug!

Ooh, that looks interesting - trying to guess what it might be!
I managed to miss posting last week - would love to send you an ATC or even swap if you're up for it. Please let me know either via my blog or at hsalthouse@yahoo.com. Thanks!
Helen S #77
This would make an awesome background!
P.S. I hope you're creative mojo is returning....
Super rocking horse, and that scan is so intriguing! Take care my WOYWW friend. Zo xx 65
Horse is awesome. did you try a closeup or macro setting on your camera to take close up shots?
Bridget #21
Wonderful rocking horse and I can't wait to see more of your scan! Happy WOYWW
Glenda #85
Haha love the sneaky way of showing the ATC ;-)
BTW the tutorial of Christy's didn't actually include corrugated card it was just that she used texture paste and the Simon Says challenge was to use texture. The actual video I watched is this one http://christytomlinson.typepad.com/christytomlinson/2012/04/behind-the-art-video-april-mixed-media-kit.html (if you go to her website click on 'Tutorials' and scroll down to the post for April 26th).

You're meaner than I am, and I thought I was mean. At least I showed a corner of my ATC! Of course, now you have a really cool ATC background, so maybe I'm just jealous!
cheers,
rachel #78
And here was me thinking that was a REALLY cool background, wondering how you did that and would that be the technique for the next lesson in the Altered Book course instead of a 'sneaky peek' at an ATC ... lol...
Thanks for sharing
Happy WOYWW

I laughed when you said there's nothing on your desk because I can't see your pictures on my computer! Happy WOYWW #2

Mary Jo #99
I am getting fed up with blogger at the moment ...cant see any of your photos ...boo hoo xx
I'm not getting any pictures either... must be server issues!
Happy WOYWW Elizabeth - thanks for stopping by. Give Bleubeard a tickle under the chin from me....
I don't know what's going on but I've refreshed over and over and still can't get any of your images to appear. :/ Hope your day is good. Tammy
No pictures for me either but I still wanted to say hi. I will just imaging your weekly rocking horse :-)
Darla
None for me either- I thought my beloved 'puter was acting up again! I'll check back later, cause I don't want to miss anything!

Alas - a picture-less zone too, you are keeping us in suspense and are so truthful in saying there's nowt om my desk! . Glad you enjoyed the celebrations... Thanks so much for the visit! Sarah.
No pics for me either but it sounds like a lovely desk to me lol
Hugs Emily#90
Hmmm no pictures this week for me either. Happy WOYWW!

Well you're ATC remains a total mystery to me, NO pics. lol! -Mari #124
Your pictures have been eaten by evil aliens. I've never monkeyed with photoshop or other photo editing software for different effects, but someday I should try that out.
No pics for me just a little square torn in half with two pink dots and pink line in one half. never found what this means except the photos will not appear.
No photos popping up for me either :-(
Happy WOYWW anyway x

janet #53
I'm not sure whats wrong but I see no photos just white blocks,
Dont see anything either, sorry! Barb #91
Ahhh pooooo... I can't see any pictures! I tried to refresh my browser too. I'll just have to trust that they are simply MAHVELOUS! Happy WOYWW! Warmly, Tracy #93
Oh heck, my computer won't show your pics either. Sure there is a way to open them, but I am not that technically smart. #147
Looks like the gremlins stole your pictures! Happy WOYWW just the same!

Hey! Thanks for stopping by! The Kings are the local hockey team. They play in the same building as the Lakers. The last time they made it this far was 1993 and they failed. This time they are on the brink of winning it all.
I bet you got real fed up with us all saying where's the pictures! I came back to see if your loading picture thingy was working! YAY!!
Ooo can't wait to see your ATC it looks very interesting after a visit to photoshop. Just playing catch up today, nice to see your full mat as we only saw a wee bit last week.
Have a great end to the week, hugs Erika. #61
I love the liquify treatment - its a work of art in itself! I'm a bit late getting round the WOYWW desks this week - been busy making 3 more little wedding waistcoats. Have a great week. x Jo
Good to see the rocking horse is not stuck under the sewing machine still and you are a clever tease with the photoshop of the ATC' LOL
Happy Crafting

Now that I can see what is going on I have to stop and gasp. I love that ATC as is! Okay, so that is a distorted version of it but I'm a distorted gal, what can I say. It is quite vividly colored. I can't wait to see what it really is.
Love the rocking horse and can't wait to see the ATC. #92
Amazing liquified ATC Elizabeth!! What fun. I can't imagine wht it looks like in real life! Love the rocking horse too.
Happy belated WOYWW,
Shoshi #89
