All Occasion Card Using Ching-Chou Kuik "Spring Delight"

Hello friends.  How are you doing?  Are you ready for Spring/Summer?  We are getting more rain again in Southern CA.  It is supposed to rain 3 days this week. I feel like I am back in FL with all the rain.  LOL!  

I am here today to share another card I created using Ching-Chou Kuik "Spring Delight".  I love this sweet image; but have always been too intimidated to color it.  I am getting braver with my coloring this year; and starting to color the ones I wouldn't have colored a year ago.   All you have to do when coloring something that feels overwhelming; is just start coloring.  Do the things you are most comfortable first like skin and hair; then do one item at a time. Eventually you will get everything colored.  It's one step at a time.  Before you know it; it is all colored.  LOL!

Sympathy Card Using Ching-Chou Kuik Autumn Whisper

Hello friends!  How is everyone doing?  It is finally cooled down quite a bit in Southern CA.  It is actually cold and we had to turn the heater on finally.  LOL! 

It is time for our Ching-Chou Kuik December "Bright and Beautiful" Challenge. That should be an easy one, right?    Be sure to take time to create something and enter our December Challenge. We would love to see what you create; and give you have a chance to win some awesome Ching-Chou Kuik digis.

I created a Sympathy card for my daughter; using Ching-Chou Kuik Autumn Whisper.  Her daughter's grandfather passed away; which has been very difficult for them.  I love this image and it seemed perfect for a Sympathy card.
