Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Inspiration Post - Monday 21 August 2023

Sadly we have ended the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Monthly Challenge due to lack of entrants.

Instead the Design Team members will be posting three cards/projects each month on the Facebook Group for inspiration on what you could make with Ching-Chou Kuik's amazing images.

Here is one of my inspiration posts.

I have made a Christmas card to keep a flow of them being made throughout the year.

For my card I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik image called "Aurora Woods".

I have coloured the image in with Promarkers and Sentimentally Yours alcohol pens.

The backing papers I have used are from The Works.

As this will need to be a posted card I have kept the embellishments to a minimum with just some card candi and a die-cut sentiment.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Inspiration Post - Monday 14 August 2023

Sadly we have ended the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Monthly Challenge due to lack of entrants.

Here is one of my inspiration posts.

This was not intended for my journal but in fact a card to be sent.  I tried to add the cloud effect after I had coloured the image and had not carefully enough masked over the lady's sleeve of her dress so I went over with some ink.  Despite adding some depth to the colouring with alcohol pens and also with pencils I can still see the mark so it did not make itself onto a card as if I am not happy with something I will not give it to someone else.

For my journal page I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik image called "Hydrangea in Bow".

I have coloured my image in with Promarkers and Sentimentally Yours alcohol pens, added clouds to the background and added pencils to her dress to try and obliterate the ink on her sleeve.

I have finished the page off with some stamped corners and stamped sentiment.

Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Inspiration Post - Monday 7 August 2023

Sadly we have ended the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Monthly Challenge due to lack of entrants.

Instead the Design Team members will be posting three cards/projects each month on the Facebook Group for inspiration on what you could make with Ching-Chou Kuik's amazing images.

Here is one of my inspiration posts.

I have done a few journal pages this month.  This is my first one.

I have used the Ching-Chou Kuik Decoupage Art image called "Dreamy Moon".  It comes in a set along with "Purple Woods" and is already coloured and ready to print off.

I have printed the image off onto photo paper and then used dies to create a pyromage effect.

The back paper is from The Works and I have used lots of different butterfly stamps with various ink colours and first and second generation stamping to create some depth to the background.  I then tore a piece of vellum and laid this over the left hand side underneath the image.

I have finished the page off with various die-cut butterflies and a stamped sentiment.

Here is a photo of a page I made last month and this is how they sit together in my journal.
