It's the last day of the 30 Days of Holidays at Beccy's Place and Beccy always lets us do whatever we love on the last day, so an "Anything Goes" theme. I chose to use this beautiful candle by Beccy and to use the last I have of a Graphic 45 Christmas paper.
I colored with ProMarkers and gel pens, then used a Sue Wilson die to cut the image piece. I used another die from that same set to cut the white glitter CS from Doodlebug and layer it over the image with the center open to let the candle 'shine' as the star of the card! :-D
The Graphic 45 paper has lovely candles on it and I added a bit of Stickles to each candle flame on that dp. The sentiment is also from Beccy's Place and I cut it with a Tutti Designs die.
Challenges:
It's sad to see the end of the 30 Days of Holidays but I have so many cards added to my stash this year! As in other years, I always make lots of extra cards to give to my local senior center because so many of those seniors have transportation complications and they simply can't get out to buy Christmas cards for their children and grandchildren. Each year the cards I leave with them are welcomed happily and I get such sweet "thank you"s from those who pick out something they consider special for a family member or friend. :-D
Happy Crafting. NanaConnie

A beautiful card, Connie! I love that intricate die cut that you placed over the image. That had to take some patience to glue it down!!

I love the intricate frame you added around the candle, it really brings a touch of elegance to the whole design. The patterned paper is fabulous and coordinates perfectly with the image, love the circle sentiment tag too.
It's so thoughtful of you to give cards to the Senior Centre NanaConnie, those small kindnesses often make a very large difference in someone's life.
Cheers,
Beccy
