Not a Square at Kerst Christmas

Here's another for the Kerst Christmas Challenge - this one for the theme "Not Square."  The lovely digital stamp is from our sponsor, Sheepski Designs, called "Christmas Candle."  How could I resist the Mason Jar shape?  I had a heck of a time making a decision about shape and finally found a Mason Jar from Creative Fabrica - a fun shape in my digital stash that suited the theme perfectly.  For the lid, I used my first Tim Holtz 3D embossing folder with a funky basket weave pattern - I obviously did not use the folder correctly....but I still like the funky effect and feel it rounded off the design.

I colored the candle digitally and faded the subtle background using my Eclips.  The holly are from my stash.  The sentiment is Miss Kate Cuttables.

This Week at Featured Stamper

I waivered on the Featured Stamper challenge this week, but finally managed to complete this one-layer card.  I'm proud that I hung in there, as the Featured Stamper is one of my favorite challenges.  This week's Featured Stamper likes a simple look....and I find those hard, actually - I always want to add more!  Once I finally decided on paper and overlay, it was so much fun!  And it truly is an easy card!
