Christmas candy
I'm still not feeling very creative, but I wanted to start on Christmas cards. This is what I came up with. The stamp is from a Tim Holtz set I won as a Rudolph Days prize last year (thank you Mo). I added a little color with pencils and added a little shine with some paper glaze on the candy. I found some candy-themed paper to add to the sweet theme.
I'm entering this card in these challenges:
