Papertrey Ink Friendship Jar Holiday


I have another Christmas card to share today!  
I'm getting a pretty good stash and should be able to start getting them in the mail right after Thanksgiving.  The only problem with my Christmas cards are friends tell me that they've received my card and how much they liked it but I'm not sure which one it was!  Beats mass production though ;)

I used actual acrylic stamps for this card from Papertrey Ink, the jar is from the set Friendship Jar and the candy canes are from the set Holiday Jar Fillers.  I used Neenah Classic Crest Solar White with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with my Copic markers.  I had to do a little masking to get the candy canes "in the jar".  You should have seen my first one!  I masked the wrong thing and it looked really weird, they were on the outside.  My layout is clean and simple using a sketch from a Sunday OWH sketch challenge last summer.  The ric rac is an extra large die from My Favorite Things.

Challenges:
Fab & Funky - Forget Me Not (acrylic stamps)
Daring Cardmakers - We Three
