Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Inspiration Post - Monday 17 May 2021

Today is the day for me to show you my creation for the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Group.

Our challenge this month is:

"MAGICAL WORLD eg fairies, dryads, mermaids, unicorns etc".

This week the Design Tean were challenged to "use yellow or orange or both".

Here is my inspiration post with that theme.

Well for this challenge I decided to use both yellow and orange.  They are not colours I really turn to, not sure why, as they worked well for this card along with some pink flowers.

For my birthday card I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik image called "Bunnies in the Garden".

I thought I'd have a go at using pencils to colour in this image.  Well it took me nearly a week every now and again doing a bit.  I've highlighted areas with my white gel pen.

The backing papers are from Summertime Designs (sadly no longer available).

I made a little dropped shadow border with my little hexagons die using black for the shadow and yellow above.  I did the same for the little bees - well a garden image would not be complete without insects would it?

I have finished the card off quite simply with some wide yellow satin ribbon, very bright orange lace and some yellow grosgrain ribbon and a die-cut sentiment.
