Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Inspiration Post - Friday 13 September 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 "FALL/FALL COLOURS EG BROWN, ORANGE, RED AND GREEN".

This week the Design Team were challenged to "BUTTERFLIES/INSECTS".

Here is my inspiration post with that theme.
I decided to go with the theme Autumn (which is our actual monthly blog challenge topic) as it sees the wildlife/greenery changing ready for the winter coming.  For my card I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik image called "Ladybug" (this image comes in a set along with "Seahorse" and "Dragonflies").  I have coloured the image in with Promarkers and I have inked around the edge with Tim Holtz's Rusty Hinge distress ink.

The backing papers I have used from my stash.

I have finished the card off with a die-cut butterfly doily, butterfly border die-cut, ribbon, sentiment and die-cut ladybugs and butterflies which were die-cut and a chalk ink pad run over the embossing.

The Promarkers that I have used are: 

Ladybug - Red, Berry Red, Crimson, Buttercup, Lemon and Yellow
Flowers/greenery - Pumpkin, Spice, Burnt Orange, Berry Red, Leaf Green, Bright Green and Forest Green.
