For this Challenge we are sponsored by Whiff Of Joy , so a fab stamp on offer :-)

For my card I used this very cute Popcorn Bear stamp from the Bundle of Joy set and followed the fab sketch on the Friday Sketchers Challenge. I coloured the image with Copics and added my fave Star Dust Stickles here and there. The papers are from Funky fairys which are now unavailable unfortunately :-(

I used a Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder and a Martha Stewart Heart border punch. The ribbons werre in my drawer and I added a few Robins Nest Dew Drops from the Fairy Dust jar ,, love these , the sentiment is from a Simon Says Stamp Exclusives set.



I also made this box to pop it in, the blocks spell baby and they are in the same Bundle of Joy set.
