Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Monthly Challenge Blog - Kym's Inspiration Post - Monday 9 February 2015

It is Monday and therefore time for me to show you an inspiration post for the Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Monthly Challenge Blog.

 For this weeks' inspiration post I was given the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamp called "Autumn Fantasy" to work with.

Despite the image being called "Autumn Fantasy" I made a Spring-like feel card.  I have coloured my image in with Promarkers.  I then used a little dotty See D's stamp with Versamark ink on the background, added some white embossing powder and heat set.  I then coloured in the background with a blue/green Promarker and rubbed off the pen over the embossed parts as that acted as a resist.  I then inked around the edge with Tim Holtz's Mustard Seed and Rusty Hinge distress ink.

The backing papers I have used are from "The Classic" paper set from Buckwell Craft Supplies.  I even made the flowers by die-cutting circles from a backing paper with circles on it.

I have finished off the card with some die-cut leaves from a book and coloured with Tim Holtz's Crushed Olive and Rusty Hinge distress ink, Tim Holtz doiley die cut out of kraft card with yellow/white twine threaded through, Craftwork Cards die-cut sentiments, die-cut butterflies, brads, 10mm antique gold satin ribbon, 25mm gold organza ribbon and 25mm ivory Veletta ribbon.
