Vannessa's Inspiration Post - Bon Voyage My Love

Good Morning and welcome to my DT post for the Ching-Chou Kuik Inspiration and Challenge blog. This week the DT were asked to include buttons on their projects so I added just a few to the corner for a little accent on my card using the gorgeous Bon Voyage My Love. I love this nautical themed image!

I kept to shades of blue and added some nautical themed wooden pieces from my stash too.

She has been coloured in with Copics and you can read more about her here on my blogpost.

Don't forget to check out all the other gorgeous design team posts this week and why not join in the fun with our challenge this month? There are some fabulous prizes to be won!

You can also join our Facebook group for more inspiration and we have a monthly Facebook Challenge as well.

Vannessa's June Challenge Card - Saturday 11th June 2016

Good Morning and welcome to my DT post for the new challenge from Ching-Chou Kuik. This month our challenge is a firm favourite of mine - use lace and pearls. And of course we would love to see you use one of Ching-Chou's gorgeous images as well.

I have used the beautiful Autumn's Here and made a pink card with her rather than using Autumn colours, although I think she would look gorgeous in greens, browns and oranges too.

She has been coloured in with Copics and you can read more about her here on my blogpost.

Don't forget to check out all the other gorgeous design team posts this week and why not join in the fun with our challenge this month? There are some fabulous prizes to be won!
