The Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Group challenge for April 2023 is:
"ALWAYS ANYTHING GOES".
Here is my inspiration post.
This week I decided to make a page for my new journal.
I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik image called "Green Frog Elf".
I have coloured the image in with Promarkers and used pearlescent chalks for the background.
I have used Tim Holtz's Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed, Festive Berries and Fired Brick distress ink to make a bright and cheery background. I have then used various stamps to add some depth to the page.
I have finished the card off with a die-cut flower with brad centre, some corrugated cardboard arrows coloured with a green Promarker and the sentiment "create moments".
I am entering this journal page into the following challenges:
