Hard Candy Christmas

When we chose our Candy Christmas inspired theme at Jingle Belles, I remembered singing Dolly Parton's Hard Candy Christmas with the 8-track tape in my Dad's pick-up truck.

Here is our Inspiration Photo from Turtlecreek Lane for this week's Candy Christmas Jingle Belles prompt.

 

Candy Christmas

 

I was drawn to the Grinch's dog Max in the photo.  I found this fun Pretty Little Studio Christmas Cheer bunny that reminded me of him, and that's where I started my card.

I loved how the bunny was wearing the light blue that was similar to the walls in the photo, that he had a stocking like the ones lining the fireplace, and that there was a Candy Cane included. 

I die cut two papers to create my little scene (the bokeh sky reminded me of the vibe of the decorated room), and I added some Pretty Little Studio Sugar Plum A Stitch in Time Stitches Stickers.  Next, I added the pile of gifts and the circle sentiment, which were also Pretty Little Studio ephemera. 

I added a frame of the blue to tie in the night shirt and the walls in the image to finish the card.
