Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Inspiration Post - Friday 22 February 2019

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 "VALENTINE'S DAY/LOVE/FOR SOMEONE SPECIAL".

Here is my inspiration post with that theme.

This week I decided to make a card for "someone special".  For my card I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik image called "Purple Night Adventure - Grayscale" (which comes in a set along with "Lavender Night Adventure" and "Daisy Night Adventure").  I have coloured the image in with Promarkers and created the background with pencils and a Posca white pen.

The backing papers are from The Works.  One of the papers I cut out with a new die from Pretty Quick called "Confetti Stars Panel and Die".  A friend I know used it recently and I loved it and had to have it and the delight was it was in a sale so I only paid £2.70 for it!!!

I have finished the card off with using some of the scraps of paper and stamping out with two different flowers from a Craftwork Cards sentiment set.  Once I had stamped them I cut them out, layered them up and added gems to the centre.

Other finishing touches are two different organza ribbon, some die-cut greenery from a friend, "happy birthday to a special friend" stamped and cut out from the Craftwork Cards sentiment set and finally some more gems.

The Promarkers that I have used are: 

Face/skin - Saffron, Spice and Oatmeal 

Hair/flowers - Pastel Green, Duck Egg, Soft Green and Amber

Dog - Ice Grey 1, Ice Grey 2, Ice Grey 3 and some Spectrum Noir pencils

Flowers/Fairy wings - Orchid, Amethyst and Purple

Background - Spectrum Noir pencils and blending solution and Posca white pen.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
