Whiff of Joy Challenge DT - My Sketch


This fortnight at Whiff of Joy we have a sketch by me for you so I hope you like it and want to join in! I have used some stunning papers from Memory Box that were a birthday gift from one of my blog buddies (you know who you are and thank you again!!). These papers are like cardstock - such gorgeous quality and designs and I've distressed them with walnut stain distress ink and stickles. I have made another tea light gift card and you will find my tutorial for this on the Whiff of Joy Inspirations blog tomorrow!
I have masked together two of the gorgeous images from the Christmas Blessings kit from Whiff of Joy and coloured them with copics. The sentiment is also in the kit and I have added some pearls from my stash.
I added a star from a Prima Christmas Bubble and some Wild Orchid Craft roses sprayed with gold cosmic shimmer. I also added some twigs punched with a MS punch and the ivy leaves are recycled from an old Christmas garland.
I decorated the tea light box on the card with the same papers and added some ivy leaves and pearls.

Hope you like it and I've inspired you to join us this fortnight at Whiff of Joy Challenge. Pop over to the blog and see the rest of my teamies gorgeous creations! Thanks for looking! x

A lovely design with such gloriously soft colours giving that traditional Christmas nostalgic feel. Thanks for your lovely comments all over the place this week - it's been a very strange one & I was very touched by your congrats re the Sugar Bowl.
Much love & take care.
