Ardyth selectd Raye Lynn aka CreepsMom as this week's Featured Stamper.
It is always an adventure looking through a gallery to see what inspires you. I looked through twice and this card grabbed me both times. It was the super cool blue background. I never achieved anything close to Raye Lynn's background, but I like how this one came out.
Next time I used this image, I am definitely using watercolor paper and leaving off the Stickles, but I think it works this way too.
This is also for the Fan Club Christmas Challenge for September.

Nancy, this is beautiful. You did such a great job creating this lovely Christmas candle. It beautifully depicts the Light of the World, for the reason we even celebrate Christmas.

Amazing design/painting! It's like my mom's cast iron candleholder. The BG, the spatters, the bit of glitter, and the holly add up to heartfelt Christmas memories...

Nancy, This is a stunning holiday card. I love the vintage candlestick and holder and you brought it alive with your wonderful watercoloring. The blue background is fantastic. Beautiful card.
