Whiff of Joy #50 - Anniversary Party

I seem to run out of time for entering my favourite challenges - I guess 3 kids, 2 cats, 1 puppy, 10 koi carp, 2 jobs, a DT and a man that works offshore makes it difficult to find crafty time lol 
But I just had to enter this week's WoJ challenge, they celebrated their 1 year anniversary lately with a blog hop that was great fun and we got to see some sneaky peeks of the new Elisabeth Bell stamps which have now been released.
Anyway, the challenge this week was a fabulous sketch by one of my favourite designers, Rachel Jakes. And as you know, I just can't resist a great sketch.

 

 Image: Herb with Baby from Whiff of Joy, coloured with promarkers; Marsh Green and Olive for the baby's swaddling, Crimson and Burgundy for Herb's hat, scarf, gloves and the hearts, Bright Orange and Mandarin for the carrot noses, Arctic Blue and Pastel Blue for the snow parts and finally Pine for the holly leaves, the swirly bits on Herb and the baby's hat
Papers are all Papermania Home for Christmas - all inked with a chestnut whispers inkpad, green core'dinations card cut using oval scallop nesties in the cuttlebug. The greeting was free in a magazine. And the snowflake brads are papermania

Here's the customary close-up...
