Ching-Chou Kuik Inspiration Post - Longing

Good morning and welcome to my inspiration post for the Ching-Chou Kuik Inspiration and Challenge blog. This week I chose to use the gorgeous digi, Longing. Ching-Chou has so many beautiful digis and I look at them all each month to choose the ones I want to use and I swear I am constantly finding new ones that I have never seen before!

I used turquoise and purples on this card and tried to keep the patterned papers a bit more subtle than the colours in the image, so the image would stand out. I wasn't really sure what kind of background to do, so tried a dotty one using various shades of purple and turquoise and I absolutely love this one!
