Celebrate Ching-Chou Kuik Blog 2nd Anniversary
Hello friends! How is everyone doing? I hope you have had a great summer and ready for fall. I am ready for some cooler; but not cold weather. Our problem in Southern CA is the wind comes with the cooler temperatures as well. You really can't do much out in the wind.
I rarely create Halloween cards; but I did enjoy creating this one. Of course, it isn't scary; but I still thought it turned out pretty good. I don't like spiders and yet I was able to add a spiderweb and a spider to this card. I am just glad I am not the one receiving it. LOL! Spiders give me nightmares. I love bats and black cats; but spiders, not so much. I hope you enjoy it.
CCK is celebrating our 2nd anniversary! Ching-Chou Kuik is giving a free image "Spring Witch" to everyone who enters the October CCK blog challenge and the October Facebook challenge as well. We can't wait to see your fabulous creations!

It is time for another fabulous Ching-Chou Kuik Challenge; which is Halloween/Spooky. I can't wait to see all of your wonderful creations! Even if I don't like spiders; I still love to see everyone's creations. I found this adorable mushroom border and was very happy the way it turned out. I chose to use Ching-Chou Kuik The Perfect Pumpkin for my image.
Daring Cardmakers - Making Memories - I created this card for 3 of my grandchildren. I remember taking my children Trick or Treat when they were younger and how much they loved it. I still love to see the costumes of the children when they come to our house. I rarely get to answer the door; due to my smell issue; but sometimes I get a chance to look out the window at them. My husband sits outside with the candy; so that I won't be exposed to the heavy colognes/perfumes that the parents/children sometimes wear.
As You Like It - Favorite Color Combo & Why? I have a lot of favorite color combinations and one of them is orange and red together. These colors always remind me of the changing of the leaves. In the fall when the colors change; there are so many orange and red combinations; and they look fabulous together.
