Birthday Card Using Ching-Chou Kuik "Flowery" with CTMH Kaleidoscope Paper

Hello friends. I hope everyone is doing well.  It has been cold here in Southern CA and we had a lot of rain for two days; which we needed.  I worry about the burn areas when we have that much rain; as there are usually floods.  We still need more rain to help with the drought.

I finally had time to create with Ching-Chou Kuik "Flowery" digi.  I have had her printed for months.  I just never have enough time to use all of her gorgeous digis.  I hope you enjoy my card.  I found this beautiful sketch from Cheerful Sketches Challenge; which is shown below my card pictures.  It sure made creating this card much easier.  I use to plan my cards around sketches and then got away from that idea.

  35. Gloria, what a lovely card you have made here which fits perfectly the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Inspiration and Challenge Blog Monthly Challenge this month of “Use something new”. I always decorate inside my cards but rarely show and seeing your inside made me think I should show mine more often. Thank you for entering and best wishes in the draw.

    1. Thanks so much Kym. I hope you will start sharing the inside. I know I struggle trying to figure out what to put inside; so I thought it might help others to see inside a card for a change. Not too many people share the inside of their cards. Hugs.
