Firstly I have something to mention to you before I give details of winners of the last challenge and details of the new challenge.
There are new regulations coming into force in Europe on 25 May 2018 regarding general data protection. These changes will mean that the monthly challenge post showing details of the winner of the Monthly Blog Challenge, winner of the Artist Choice Award and the details of the Guest Designer for a future challenge WILL NOT have direct links to their blogs. I shall continue to show the winner’s cards as entered into Linky Tools but it will be the responsibility of the winners to make contact to claim their prizes using the e-mail contact on the Ching-Chou Kuik Inspiration and Challenge Blog.
Those crafters that enter the Monthly Blog Challenge and add their details into Linky Tools do so in the knowledge that their names and blog links are visible to all who visit the Ching-Chou Kuik Inspiration and Challenge Blog and it is considered that the crafter’s consent that their name and blog link are visible to all visiting the blog and could appear in the following month’s post if they are one of the winners or a future Guest Designer.
If you make a comment on the Ching-Chou Kuik Inspiration and Challenge Blog you understand that your name and blog link will be visible for others to see.
To make sure that this Blog is compliant with the new laws come 25 May 2018 these changes will be made immediately.

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.

Every month there is an "Artist's Choice Award". The winner of this award will be picked by Ching-Chou Kuik herself. 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 2018 is No 12:
Congratulations Jackie.

You might or might not be aware but they have been some stunning additions to the Etsy Store recently and these include:
This image is called "Peony Dawn". This time you will get the Pre-coloured Digital Decoupage Art.
This set is called "Under the Sea 2". It is a set of grayscale images including "Far Away Moon", "Crimson Dream" and "Blue Sea Illusion".
This image is called "Spring Flower". In this set you will get a black and white image and a partially coloured image by Ching-Chou Kuik herself.
There is an amazing array of beautiful digital stamps in the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Etsy Store.
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 Passionate Paper Creations and Friends 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.

Don't forget if you would like to be a Guest Designer for a forthcoming challenge please remember to add "GDT" after you name in the Linky Tools or add a comment in the comment box.
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.
