Whiff of Joy # 72...A Sketch by Bev...Best Wishes!


Good morning crafty friends! It is Wednesday and that means another fun challenge over at the Whiff of Joy Challenge blog! This week Bev has designed a gorgeous sketch for us to use! Well, all of Bev's sketches are gorgeous and I always love the cards that I make with her sketches! I hope you can join us and I hope you go take a look at all the beautiful creations the WOJ Challenges DT came up with this week! Just a little friendly reminder...Please make sure you use a Whiff of Joy image on your creation! We have seen many very beautiful cards but unfortunately they did not have a Whiff of Joy image on them and that is a required to enter the Whiff of Joy challenge!

So for my card I went through my ScrapOnizers that hold all my WOJ stamps and decided to ink up this sweet Willow image that I just adore! I had an idea and I knew I wanted to use a Digi embellishment circle from the Shabby Shoppe and I imagined Willow playing...Ring around the Rosy...we all fall down!

I made my cardbase 6x6 from American Crafts cardstock and used my MME Mini Deck Garden Variety paper. I used my Kelly Panacci Stitching stamps and used various Distress inks to ink all the papers and stamp the stitching.


I wanted to use this yummy ribbon in my stash. I used my Fiskars Apron Lace border punch and some pink American Crafts cardstock...just for a Little touch of pink to tie in the pink in the ribbon! I stamped Willow on Neenah card and coloured her with my Copics and cut her out with my Oval Nesties and left the image in the die and inked with Spun Sugar Distress ink. I wanted this to be a birthday card so I added the Melissa Frances rub-on Best Wishes and some Prima flowers and pearls to finish it off!

Here is the inside...another Melissa Frances rub-on, a few more Primas and pearls!
Well, thanks so much for stopping by and having a wee look-see at my card! So I hope you can join the challenge this week! I know you will be so happy with this fabulous sketch by Bev and if you need a little inspiration check out the WOJ DT cards!
Have a stampin' great day!
Hugs,
