I have had a love of Ching-Chou Kuik's images for a long time now. A friend at the time had bought some, sent me a card with one on, I bought some and the rest is history. I have been on various Design Teams working with her digital stamps, rubber stamps and also a Design Team working with her images made into decoupage and pyromage. Now I run both Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Blog and Facebook monthly challenges. I could never have imagined doing this when I first saw her images and posted I think my first Ching-Chou Kuik card on my blog back in March 2010. The card I made is above (yikes did I really make that???).
The Design Teams I run get to use Ching-Chou Kuik's digital stamps but I still have some rubber stamps made by Sweet Pea Stamps (sadly no longer in business) and I decided to use them today.
For both of the cards below I have used some thick card jigsaws that have been in my stash for years. I stamped on both of the images with Versafine black ink. I have coloured the images in with my Promarkers and added Crafter's Companion clear sparkle pen on the wings. I then prepared the backgrounds using different colours and different texture stamps to give the background more depth. I have then doodled around the edges of both.
The backing papers for both cards are from The Works.
This first card I have finished it off with stamped sentiments, wide purple satin ribbon, spotty purple/white organza ribbon, Nuvo pink pearls drops and finally a flower.
