Sending You.....CANDY CORN!



I couldn't resist Play Date Cafe's colors.   

                                                       

I searched around for a stamp that would remind me of fall but I didn't want leaves.  I came across Joyful Jar.  It had candy corn on it!  Candy Corn means FALL to me!  I have this rule.... never buy Candy Corn before October 1.  Well, I've already broke that rule.  Actually twice already.  Really not sure why I have that rule - I never abide by it.  


I played around with the base of the card switching out colors. I really had a difficult time.   Even set it aside and left the room.  Thought a break might do me good.  Maybe even eat a little candy corn.  I wasn't sure that I would ever come back to it.  But, I did come back today and decided to finish it.  (I Hate leaving unfinished projects!)

Joyful Jar is a really cute stamp.  Not only can you fill your jar with snowflakes, you can fill it with presents, snowflakes, leaves, hearts and more.   Check out this stamp HERE.

CARDSTOCK: Topiary, Sunset and White Daisy
INK: Black, Sunset, Honey
STAMP:  Joyful Jar (B1393)
ACCENTS: Honey Mini Medley Accents

I set the cricut to cut at 5".  I recycled an old gift card so my card is a little thick. This size worked well.   If inserting a regular card you can use 4 3/4" measurement.  "Merry Christmas" is also cut using the Artiste Cricut Cartridge.  I set the measureme...
