Ching-Chou Kuik's Full Moon

Good morning folks - if you're reading this it means that the scheduling widget has worked! I just want to say a quick thank you to those of you who left me comments on my painting escapades last week. My son loved his new room so it was totally worth all the hard work. The only problem is I'm now way behind with everything else, so everything has been a complete rush this week!

It's challenge week over at Sweet Pea Stampers and this time the theme is Swirls of Summer. We are sponsored this week by the lovely Amy from The Crafty Purple Frog who has generously donated 3 digis sheets of the winners choice as a prize. Please do pop over to the challenge blog and give a warm welcome to our new teamies who have created some awesome cards for your inspiration.


For my card this week I've used the gorgeous Ching-Chou Kuik's Full Moon which is currently on offer for an amazing $2.75. The image has been coloured with Promarkers, and then given some shimmer and sparkle with Sakura Clear Star Gel Pen and Star Dust Stickles. I've decoupaged the image directly onto DP's both of which are Prima Fairy Flora. The seam binding is from Crafty Ribbons and the lacy ribbon is from The Craft Barn. The leaves are cut from a scrap of paper that I'd hoarded kept and the flowers are from Knorr Prandell (looking at my piccy I think I'm going to remove some of the flowers and re-arrange the LO of them). I created the swirls using an Eline template and the Viva Pearl Paper Pen.

Thanks for stopping by, have a fab weekend.
