Christmas Candle - Heartfelt Creations

Happy Wednesday everyone!

It's time for some Heartfelt Creations' inspiration!  I have another Christmas Card for you this week using the new Christmas Card Collection.  Last week my card was a little labor intensive, this time I have a fairly easy card to put together using the new papers!




The main image on this, the candle, is stamped and colored.  The background, though, is taken from the Christmas Card Collection Designer Paper.  I added a green mat to it and placed it on a white card base.  If you click on the photo, you can see how easy it was to put this together!

Be sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations Blog to see all the beauties by the designers this week and to see who won the entire collection!

I'm submitting this to the following challenges:

Word Art Wednesday Challenge #94

Blessings!

Kathy
