Wishing you a very happy Christmas and all the best for a happy, healthy and very crafty 2023

Good evening everyone. 

Thought I would do this post from Ching-Chou Kuik and myself to thank you all for supporting with the purchase of Ching-Chou Kuik's amazing images from the Etsy Store and for supporting our Blog Challenge and Facebook Challenges.

We had to have a little break from the challenges due to my life/health issues but we are starting back in January 2023.

Unfortunately we only have 2 Design Team members left on the Blog Design Team so, for the moment, Geesje and Lozzy as the only exisiting Blog Design Team members, will post their creations as part of the Facebook DT.

The Blog Challenge will not re-start in January 2023 as we need to find some new Design Team members.

If you would like to join the Blog Design Team please contact me.

We would all like to wish you a happy Christmas and that you get to spend some quality time with your loved ones and that the New Year will bring a happy, healthy and very crafty 2023 for you all.

Stay safe and well.

New Challenge

Good evening everyone.

Following a short break the monthly challenges were to begin again tomorrow.  Sadly this has now been put back to a start date of 1 January 2023.

Hope to see you all back then.

*****************************************

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 "Fly High".

In this set you will get a gorgeous image with a frame and a gorgeous image without a frame.

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.

There is another monthly challenge over at the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Group.

The challenge is "JUST COLOUR IT".

The aim of this challenge is for people who like to colour in images but do not want to use it for cards/scrapbooking/mixed media etc. 

*****************************************

Please remember when linking to this Blog 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.

Gale's Inspiration Post

This is Gale here with more inspiration for you.  Today I have used this lovely image Garden Daisy Flower from Ching-Chou Kuik.

A new monthly challenge will kick off tomorrow and the theme is always Anything Goes.
