Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Monthly Challenge Blog - Kym's Inspiration Post - Friday 19 February 2016

Here is my weekly inspiration post for the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Monthly Challenge Blog.  The week the Design Team have been given the topic of "anything goes".

Before I do I'd like to remind you that our challenge this month is "LOVE".
Here is another Pocket Letter I have made with the colour scheme purple - my favourite colour.  If you haven't seen these before pop on over to Janette Lane's Blog for more information - looking there is at your own risk as the making of Pocket Letters is rather addictive!!!!

For my Pocket Letter I have used three images:  Shih Tzu, Dreamy Lily and Papillon. I have coloured the images in with my Promarkers and inked around the edge with a chalk ink pad.

The backing papers is from my stash and I have cut up to make the background for the ATC sized pieces of artwork.

I have finished the pocket letters off with various stamps, Nuvo crystal drops, Craftwork cards die-cut sentiments and a peace of Stampboard which I have coloured, stamped on, coloured and scratched to add some texture.

Behind the Pocket Letter is lots of little goodies for the recipient!!

    Love these pocket letters, and yours is exceptionally pretty and purple...excellent gift for another scrapper, or I guess it would be a nice gift with other small gifts too. I have to try this. Thanks for sharing with Aud Sentiments.

    This is a lovely example of this technique - and thanks for sharing a source for the technique. I like your combination of images - especially the 3 similar but different faces, with their adorable pets. Thank you for sharing with Eureka stamps this week. We hope you come back for the next challenge.
