Whiff of Joy # 75...A Sketch by Bev & lots of flowers!


Good morning crafty friends! It's Wednesday and time again for the Whiff of Joy Challenge! This week we have a beautiful sketch designed by Bev and we have an added twist of April Showers bring May Flowers....so we would also like to see lots of flowers on your card! The WOJC DT has gorgeous creations for you so go take a peek and I hope you get a chance to join the challenge! I also want to let you know that I will MIA so I'll have my Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps challenge post scheduled for Saturday and I hope that it works as I don't always have good luck with scheduling posts in advance...so fingers crossed.smile! I won't be able to do any blog hopping or commenting but I will be back at blogging in about a week or so!

So for my card I used this scrumptious BoBunny paper called Jazmyne again! Sorry but I think you are going to be seeing a lot if it until it runs out,lol! I love the colours and the great patterns...lots of flowers on it...perfect for this weeks added element to the challenge! I also though with "April showers" where better to be than Shopping!!! So, I used Shopping Willow from the Whiff of Joy City Girls Collection! I love this Willow and I just love paper piecing her shopping bags. I stamped strategically on the patterned paper to avoid the glittery parts of the paper as it just made it easier to stamp and cut out.

I had to add some ribbon even though the sketch doesn't really call for it! I just can't seem to make a card without ribbon and lots of Prima flowers, with some dollar store roses and half pearls sprinkled here an there. For the sentiment I used my beloved Melissa Frances rub-ons and something that I love to do with them is cut them up and piece them together to suit my needs.

Here is the inside and I used my heart Nesties and again this sentiment was created with different cut up parts of the Melissa Frances rub-ons from different sheets.
Well, thanks so much for stopping by and having a wee peek at my card for the Whiff of Joy Challenge! I really hope you can join us as this sketch by Bev is just fab!!!
Hope you all have a great week and I will catch up with you all in a week or so!
Hugs,
