Whiff of Joy thank you card

After Christmas is over, my card box runs out of thank you cards very quickly. This time of year is an excellent time to stock up, especially with all those delicious sketches and ideas out there.

This week's challenge over at Whiff of Joy is to create a card using aqua and red together, and of course, a Whiff of Joy stamp. I have exactly 3 of these, and they've been getting a bit of a bashing recently, but with my no-buy challenge I'm not buying any more until we get to Australia, so they'll have to be used imaginatively. Hmmm.... can you hear my brain ticking over here? I wonder whether they allow mix-and-match stamps in their challenges? Well we might have to find out - I hope I don't get disqualified!

Well I haven't gone that far for this card. Here's Lizzie again:


Ingredients:
- Lizzie stamp from Whiff of Joy
- coloured with Copics and Distress Stickles in "brick"
- DCWV red paper
- all other papers by My Mind's Eye
- Dew Drop black chalk ink
- sentiment sticker from Rebecca Sower
- 7 Gypsies white brads
- flower and leaf punches from Daiso
- red tie from Paperchase
- blue rik-rak from Georgina
