For the Inspiration Challenge (IC521), we are to use a forgotten favorite we have saved. I admit, I had forgotten about the favorite feature on Splitcoast, so my Favorite List is very slim. I did have THIS one from way back & I love the candles so that’s what I picked for my card.
Instead of a stamp, I used a Christmas Candle die & attached it to a white frame w/ designer paper behind it. The center & right candles just have the dp showing thru, but since the left candle is partly on the frame, I added a piece of dp behind it. I added more of the holly on the upper left & also added some inlay pieces to all the the holly leaves. The Merry Christmas was die cut 3 times & stacked so it would sit up higher on top.
Here’s a look at the inside.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Beautiful card. Love how you stacked the die cuts and put the dp behind to set them off.
Gorgeous, full holiday beauty, with candles and gold. love the design. thanks for the inspiration.
Beautiful! What is dp?
Dp is shorthand for Designer Paper.
Hope this helps!
