Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Inspiration Post - Friday 20 October 2017

  Here is my weekly inspiration post for the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Monthly Challenge Blog. 

Before I do I'd like to remind you that our challenge this month is "HALLOWEEN/FRIGHT NIGHT".

This week the Design Team were challenged to "anything goes".

Here is my inspiration post with this image.
 For my 8"x8"card I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik image called "Misty Reflections" and I have coloured her in with my Promarkers and I have used my Pan Pastels for the background.  For a change I have stamped the "Happy Halloween" stamp direct onto the image rather than separately on the card.

I decided to make my own backing papers by using plain orange and purple card stamped with my Clearly Besotted Halloween stamps.

I have finished the card off with a piece of card stamped with a crackle background to look like a spider's web, spider ribbon and various die-cuts (splats, witch, bats and the dreaded spiders).

Promarkers used:

Face/body - Blush, Sunkissed Pink and Coral
Necklace - Pumpkin
Hair - Saffron, Vanilla and Cocoa
Hat/gloves - Amethyst, Purple and Pumpkin
Dress - Burnt Orange, Pumpkin and Spice
Cats - Ice Grey 1 and 2.
Moon - Tulip Yellow and Sunflower.

 I am entering this card into the following challenges: 

Ooh La La Creations - Die-cuts
Scrapbook Stamp Society - Anything goes with the option of Autumn
A Bit More Time to Craft - Anything goes
A Lil Patch of Crafty Friends - Anything goes
World Wide Open Design Team - Anything goes

Creative Fingers - Anything goes
QKR Stampede - Anything goes
Just to give you a "heads up" that this months’ challenge is a VERY special challenge.

As it is our third birthday there will not be just one Monthly Challenge Winner but THREE Monthly Challenge Winners as well as the Artist Choice Award Winner picked by Ching-Chou Kuik herself.

It would be lovely to see you taking part in our challenge in the October 3rd anniversary celebrations.
