It's Friday and that means my turn to show you my card I made for this month's challenge called All Creatures Big and Small. Since there are tons of images with animals in Ching Chou Kuik's Etsy store, this challenge is really easy-peasy, right?

I used and image called Hello Spring and you can find it in Ching-Chou's Etsy store here.

Vannessa's June Challenge Card - Tuesday 2nd June

Good Morning and welcome to my post for the Ching-Chou Kuik Inspiration and Challenge blog. You may have seen yesterday that the new challenge went live for this month and our challenge this time to for you to use animals of some kind in your project.

I chose to use the gorgeous Swing in Spring, which has a little cat on it. I'm not very confident with colouring large animals, apart from butterflies, so I opted for a little one this time. I think I need to practise my animal colouring a bit more though! She has been coloured with Copics and you can read more about her on my blogpost here.

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, All Creatures Great and Small, 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.
