Whiff of Joy Challenge 119 and a Sketch!

Just popping in to show you my DT card for the new challenge over at Whiff of Joy Challenges following this fab sketch from our lovely Karina.

Karina's Sketch 2

My image is from the recent Winter 2011 release - such a cutie!!  I've used Webster's Christmas Papers again and the gold gauze is also Webster's trim.
The leaves and swirls are made with the Tim Holtz foliage die and I've added a few berry stamens from Hobby Craft.  Then added some gold acrylic dabber to all the edges and the stamens.

The challenge will run for the next few weeks until after Christmas so you have lots of time to join in.  Our sponsor for this Challenge is Whiff of Joy stamps  with a lovely 15% discount off your next order - have you seen all the new mini stamps and embellies that are on-line now?

I have my work Christmas do tonight - Skating at Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park!  I'll report back soon if I don't suffer some serious injury!!

    Love your gold gauze and dabbing. I must do some dabbing myself next year - I have been admiring the technique on a number of your cards. Love this image too! A beautiful card! hugs, Lesley
