Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Monthly Challenge Blog - Kym's Inspiration Post - Monday 2 February 2015

Well it is time to show you my card and give you details on how I made my card for the Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Monthly Challenge Blog.  This month the challenge is "torn to pieces ie something torn on your card/creation".  This could be a torn image, backing papers, paper ribbons etc.

For my card I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamp called "Spring Bouquet".  I wanted to keep this card bright and cheery so I went with the colour scheme of mainly bright pink and yellow.

I have coloured the image in with my Promarkers and used two shades of yellow Pan Pastel and the blender to make the background.  I then used a paper tearing ruler with like a deckle edge and tore around the image and also some bright pink card and some yellow.  Around the image I highlighted the torn edge with a metallic gold Pan Pastel and the two pieces of card with a bright magenta.

The backing papers are from my stash and the patterned one I have torn and both have been edged with the magenta Pan Pastel.

I have finished the card off with a Tim Holtz Sizzix butterfly border die-cut (which I have coloured with the two yellow Pan Pastels and the blender and then rubbed over some Stickles glitter glue for some sparkle), some die-cut flowers with beads for the centres, Create and Craft tag and ribbon bow, Craftwork Cards die-cut sentiment, satin ribbon, organza ribbon, button and faux stitching.
