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 "CHRISTMAS/FIREWORKS".
This week the Design Team were challenged by a former Design Team member Vannessa to "BE INSPIRED BY MUSIC".
Here is my inspiration post with this theme.
This week the Design Team were challenged by a former Design Team member Vannessa to "BE INSPIRED BY MUSIC".
Here is my inspiration post with this theme.
My music inspiration is "Lady in Red" by Chris de Burgh.
For my birthday card I have used the image "Fresh Blue" which was free to anyone that entered the 4th anniversary celebrations in October.
I have coloured my image in with Promarkers and highlighted areas with a white gel pen.
The backing papers are from my stash.
I have finished off the card with some die-cut flowers and greenery, ribbon, lace die-cut sentiment and gems.
The Promarkers that I have used are:
Face/skin - Saffron, Spice and Oatmeal
Hair/wings - Tan, Cinnamon and Caramel
Dress/jewellery/flower - Red, Poppy Red and Crimson
Leaves/branches - Forest Green, Lush Green, Caramel and Cocoa.

As You Like It - Do you prefer rubber stamps or digital stamps? (I do love rubber stamps. It took me a long while to get "into them" as I preferred decoupage and I didn't like anything messy. Once I did I was addicted and my rubber stamp collection grew and grew. I never thought anything would take over from my rubber stamps but I now prefer digital stamps as they are stored on the computer and you just print off when you need and you can print to whatever size project you are doing and for me when my eyes cause me trouble with focusing and tracking digital stamps are perfect).
