Welcome to the Paper Funday "Christmas in July' Blog Hop, in conjunction with Inspiration Station. You should have arrived here from Anita's blog but if you've missed any of the stops, you can go to the main post at Paper Funday and start at the beginning.
I've used one of the beautiful images from a set called "Holiday Candy Deluxe" by Jan's Digi Stamps. I'll be offering the main image in black and white as a prize for one of the commenters on my blog. It colors up so beautifully and I chose the traditional Christmas colors of red and green.
Although it's not easily visible in my first photo, the candy jar itself has been fussy cut and mounted onto Pop Dots, then applied to the main candy jar image (cut with a QuicKutz die) which gives it delightful dimension. I added a corner bit (also from the Holiday Candy set) and the sentiment at the bottom, then layered the image onto a deep green frame (also cut with QuicKutz die.)
The background dp is from Recollections. I dug through my scrap ribbon stash and found both the white netting and the gold metallic ribbon I decided the dp was busy enough that the card needed nothing more than the ribbon for embellishment.
Here's a close up; a better shot for showing the dimension.
Challenges:
HOP IS NOW CLOSED AND THE WINNER HAS BEEN CHOSEN.
Happy Crafting. NanaConnie
BTW, I visited the JDS store and discovered that all her Christmas sets are on sale this month. The set I used, Holiday Candy Deluxe, is reduced from $7.00 to only $5.25! Here's a shot of the entire set, including 12 pre-colored & B&W images, plus 5 sentiments. You could do all the Christmas cards you need from just this one set! :-D
