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 "Simply Roses"

Using the image "Love is in the Air".

Using the image " its-all-about-love "

Using the image "Red Poppies"

Using the image "Come Softly"

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 image is called "Jellyfish Dance".

In this set you will get a black-and-white image and a partially coloured image by Ching-Chou Kuik herself.
This is a set of two black-and-white images.

In this set you will get the image called "Misty Allure" and "Hummingbird2".
This image is called "Butterfly Magic".

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. 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.
*****************************************
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.

January 2022 - Winner's Post

Thank you to all those crafters that entered last month's challenge.  Sadly again we did not have many people enter.  We would love to see more people taking part so why not colour in an image, make it into a card/project and enter into our challenge as you may be a lucky winner.
