Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Inspiration and Challenge Blog - May 2021

Today sees the start of our new challenge.

I have some sad news. 

Dianne has made the very tough decision to leave the Blog Design Team.  She has been on the DT since January 2015 and this was her first post.  Her first card made is in the banner above.  In the last six years she has created some amazing cards. 

Ching-Chou Kuik, both Design Teams and myself as Team Leader are so VERY sad to see her go but wish all her the very best for the future.  Take care Dianne.

As mentioned recently there is going to be a slight change to the Blog Challenge from May 2021.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
If you are entering the challenge and use another company's image the challenge for May 2021 is:

"MAGICAL WORLD eg FAIRIES or MERMAIDS or DRYADS or UNICORNS etc".
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
If you are entering the challenge using a Ching-Chou Kuik image your challenge for May 2021 is:

"MAGICAL WORLD eg FAIRIES or MERMAIDS or DRYADS or UNICORNS etc" or you can choose the topic "ANYTHING GOES".
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Time to show you now the cards/creations made by the Blog Design Team.
Using the image "Always"


The "rules" of the monthly challenge are very basic and can be found in the blog sidebar or in a page at the top of the blog.

It would be lovely if you could play along with the challenge this month.
*****************************************
You might or might not be aware but they have been some stunning additions to the Etsy Store recently and these include:
This is a set called "Wild Passion".  In this set you will "Inner Passion - Greyscale" and "Getting Wild - Greyscale".
This image is called "Pale February - Greyscale".

There is an amazing array of beautiful digital stamps in the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Etsy Store.  They include black-and-white images, greyscale images, partially coloured images and fully coloured images.

Why don't you pop on over and take a look?
There is also a Facebook Group where all new members are very welcome. The Facebook Group can be found HERE.  Here crafters will share their creations made with a Ching-Chou Kuik image.  On the Facebook Group there will also be the details of the monthly Facebook Challenge and details of any sales etc.
 Ching-Chou Kuik is now a proud sponsor over at the Crafting of Hue Facebook Group.

Why not pop on over and take a look. 
Over at Kit and Clowder you will find details of various on-line classes that you can buy and participate in.  Ching-Chou Kuik is one of the sponsors.  

If you want to find out a bit more about colouring techniques pop on over to Kit and Clowder and have a look.
**************************************************************
To enter this challenge you need to use a rubber stamp or digital stamp (black-and-white/greyscale or partially pre-coloured or fully coloured in images). 

Just coloured in images are NOT allowed and need to be made into a card/project to enter the challenge.

NO fully digital cards are allowed. 

Please remember when linking to this challenge you MUST link to your blog post and not just your actual blog.  

As you have taken the time to create something to enter into the challenge the Design Team members like to leave you comments but this is made more difficult when they have to look through your blog to find the right card/creation to comment on.  

Thank you for your understanding.  

We look forward to see your creations this month.

Just coloured in images are NOT allowed.

Please note: when selecting digital stamps for a prize, stamp sets do not count as one digital stamp. You may choose individual digital stamps from a stamp set but you must clarify carefully what image you would like.
Each month there is an "Artist's Choice Award".  To be in with a chance of winning this award you need to use one of Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps from her Etsy Store for your card/creation.  At the end of the month Ching-Chou Kuik will look at all those cards/creations using one of her digital stamps from the Etsy Store and pick one winner that will get the "Artist's Choice Award" and will also get to pick 5 digital stamps of their choice from the Etsy Store.

Ching-Chou Kuik certainly had a lot of beautiful cards/creations to choose from but the winner of the "Artist's Choice Award" for April 2021 is:
card No 3 and that lovely, bright and cheery card was made by Lillian.

Congratulations Lillian.  

P
lease pop on over to the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamp Etsy Store and e-mail me with your choice of 5 images.  Make sure you take your Artist Choice Award Winner badge from the sidebar to add to your blog.

Hello, my crafty friends!  It's Julie O with you today, and I hope you are having a great week, and  great April.  Our 4-legged Friends challenge is still underway, and you have another 10 days to join us! 
I like many 4-legged creatures, but dogs are my absolute favorite.  I find myself gravitating towards all the amazing doggy images in the GJZCCK Etsy Shop.  Like this one!
