Ching-Chou Kuik Challenge Post for January

Good morning and welcome to another challenge from the Ching-Chou Kuik Design Team. This month we are doing something a little different for our first challenge/inspiration posts. All the members of the design team were given the same image to use rather than pick the one we wanted to use. There have been so many gorgeous uses of this image, The Wild Princess, so make sure you check out all the other DT cards and projects.

Our challenge this month is to use flowers and add some ribbon - a nice easy one for the first one of the new year!

Here is mine. I wanted to use some soft pastel colours so went for a fave combo of mine, peach and pale green with touches of brown and yellow. I also used the punched out butterflies on the frame round my image - a great idea to add details and not waste them!
