This is my first load of an image on the site, as well as my first attempt at Card Candy! I made this for a swap and hope the receiver likes it! There are 8 coordinating blank cards, envelopes, background stamped cardstock and a whole bunch of card candy. The cards and backgrounds go in a metal CD tin for storage, and could be used to package the cards as a gift when completed.

This is just too too cute. Would you mind sharing in detail what you used as far as the embellishments. Are some of them from a Simply Scrap Kit? This is just gorgeous.

Hi Lisa!
The striped paper and green printed on the front of the tin are from the At Home simply scrapping kit.
Embellishments 3, 5 and 9 (counting from the top left) are rims from Hodgepodge hardware, combined with crystal effects to give the centre a gloss.
Embellishments 2, 4 and 7 are also from the scrapping kit, although I tend to use the "scrap" or "garbage" surrounding the kits intended piece and modify it. NOTHING goes to waste! Ex: #7 doesn't use the blue star/flower from the kit, it uses the leftover paper that surrounds it. Same goes for the background flower behind the butterfly on the tin.
#6 is a faux metal tag made with vellum.
The "dots" are from Making Memories, combined with pieces from the kit.
I've done 3 of these kits so far, all different colours and combos and will upload them when I can.
Thanks for your feedback!
