Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Inspiration Post - Friday 21 December 2018

 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 "BUTTERFLIES/INSECTS".

This week for the last inspiration post for 2018 the Design Team were challenged to "ANYTHING BUT A CARD" by Design Team Member Aurora.

Here is my inspiration post with that theme.

 For my decorated photo frame that my son and his partner brought me back from Malta I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik image called "Autumn Sea" (this is available in a set called "Beautiful Tails Mermaids" and comes with Intense Red, Jewellery Keeper, Flowing Crimson and Sunset Jasmine".  I have coloured the image in with Promarkers, cut the image to fit inside the frame and then used various stencils and inks to create some depth around the image.  I then used a die-cut to create some seaweed.

The frame came with some shells on it but I have stuck on more along with a die-cut seahorse and a calendar tab so this frame can sit on my craft desk next year.  

The Promarkers that I have used are: 
Face/skin - Saffron, Spice and Oatmeal 
Hair - Coral, Dusky Pink, Sandstone and Caramel 
Mermaid's top/tail - Mint Green, Soft Green and Pastel Green
Sky - Blue Pearl

Sand/coral/sun - Buttercup, Saffron, Primrose, Coral, Cinnamon.

I am entering this decorate frame into the following challenges:
