One is just from picture on my die

you don't have to use the dies I used
make any card similar or another die

I love the candles. When cleaning off my desk, I found some 4x6 pieces of paper I had embossed in the past and never used. They would be perfect. Even specialty papers (glitter, debossed) would work really well. Very simple design but really pretty and easy.

Lots of possibilities for these. I really like the candles, too, and the idea of using flowers or greens with them.

I added some greenery but it was hard to glue down
I have a cutting die on order for several different types of greenery but it is backordered

I'll be glad when photobucket is back up my icon are a mess

I do not know who made it

Here are the 3 cards I made for Jill's challenge.
I really liked the candles so went with that one.
The middle one has candles cut from an embossing folder row of birthday candles. The other two are just scraps of paper cut to look like candles.
Weird lighting in the sun early this morning on the photo. There is lots of glitter and sparkle on the berries, flames and other elements.
