'Give Thanks' Candle Jar

I have seen a couple of these lately that other people have made, so I had to make one! This was one of my favorite crafts that I made as a kid. The last one I made was in second grade as a Mother's Day gift, so it has been awhile. They are still just as fun to make though and will make great gifts!

The jar is covered with brown tissue paper, I glued some ribbon around the top, and the pumpkin is just on a piece of cardstock attached with a pop-dot on the outside. The pumpkin and the 'Give Thanks' semtiment are both from the Family, Food & Friends stamp set.

I took a picture of the jar while it was lit so you can see the glow that it gives off.


I have some more tissue paper that I bought yesterday to do some Christmas themed jars. I will post pictures when I get more done!

One Idea Two Projects

Last night I made two different projects with one general design idea. I like the idea of taking one idea and using it in multiple ways. The first one is this Christmas card.
Recipe
Stamps: Simply Christmas (R-2721)
Paper: Amelia Cardstock (B-317), Amelia Paterned Cardstock (V-838), Aspen Cardstock (V-228)
Ink: Palette Burnt Umber (TT-218), Palette Bordeaux (TT-198), Palette Jardin Moss (TT-215)
Embellishments: Amelia Hardware (B-117), Amelia Ribbon (B-217)
Tools: Crop-a-dile (K-100)

The second project is this little Christmas wall/door hanger. It uses the same basic supplies and design idea but is for home decor instead of a card.
