Here is an image that has just been released in the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Etsy Store:
This image is called "Autumn Leaves".
Today is the day for me to show you another creation for the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Group.
Our challenge this month is:
"REMEMBRANCE or THANKSGIVING or THINKING OF YOU or THANK YOU".
This week thought the Design Team were challenged to "SHABBY CHIC or DISTRESSED".
Here is my inspiration post with that theme.
For my shabby chic style card I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik image called "Moth and Fern".
I have coloured my image in with Promarkers and highlighted areas with my white Posca pen.
The papers are from my stash and I have cut with my Tim Holtz deckle edged guillotine and inked around the edges of the papers, image, die-cut butterfly, die-cut butterfly doily and sentiment with Tim Holtz's Tea Dye distress ink.
I have finished my card off with a sentiment, die-cut butterfly, die-cut butterfly border and some gems.

It has been a busy time recently with going away for 2.5 weeks on holiday to three different areas of the UK with our touring caravan to see family and friends, my husband's Long Service Award Dinner (for 30 years' service with his company) and our eldest son got married. It was a lovely day for them. I knew I had to make a special card but my health is not "playing ball" at the moment so it took weeks to plan/make this card.
I recently bought Debbi Moore's Art Deco match-it pad and matching die-set so I could use the images and dies for my card for the two grooms and the corner dies. They got a puppy recently called Benji but sadly he could not come to the event so I retrieved a photo of him, shrunk it down and added him to the card and matching box.
I utilised a verse that I got a long time ago when I first started crafting but thought it was a beautiful addition to the card.
My stopper for the easel card is a gorgeous Prima flower and gem display which I won in a challenge earlier this year. I had to save it for a special card so our son's wedding card was perfect to use it on.
As my card was a "little" chunky I made up an 8x8 box that I bought some years ago and decorated it in-keeping with the card and added Benji to the box as well.
I am entering this card and matching box into the following challenges:

For my anniversary card I have used a Debbi Moore Art Deco match-it pad and matching die. I also used it for a recent wedding card but it's amazing to see how the cards differ even with using the same images.
I have used one of the scenes from the match-it pad for the images to go on and the backing papers have come from one of my Debbi Moore CDs but for the life of me I cannot remember which one!!
I have finished the card off with some ribbon and some large gems.

Our challenge this month is:
"REMEMBRANCE or THANKSGIVING or THINKING OF YOU or THANK YOU".
This week thought the Design Team were challenged to "LOVELY LACE".
Here is my inspiration post with that theme.
For my bright and cheery card I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik image called "Peony in May".
I have coloured my image in with Promarkers. It took quite a long time with all the detail but so worth it. I have highlighted areas with my Sakura stardust clear pen.
The backing papers are from my stash and from Hobbycraft.
I have used a large width lace for my card as I thought it went well with the papers and the image.
I have finished my card off with a sentiment and some gems.

Our challenge this month is:
"REMEMBRANCE or THANKSGIVING or THINKING OF YOU or THANK YOU".
Here is my inspiration post with that theme.
For my card I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik image called "Field of Poppies - Greyscale".
I have coloured the image in with Promarkers and inked around the edge with Tim Holtz's Vintage Photo distress ink.
The backing papers are from Polkadoodles and Debbi Moore CDs. I used a piece of scrap kraft card and inked along both sides of the border with a Stamp Addicts poppy stamp.
I have finished the card off quite simply with a stamped sentiment, organza bow and a gem.
