You may remember the Chupa Chups-themed card I made last month, inspired by a challenge at The Lollipop Ladies; Well, I won a GDT spot for their 6oth Challenge! The theme is Candy Canes with the extra challenge of Spirals.
Inspiration/Challenges:
The Lollipop Ladies: Candy Canes/Spirals
Card Makin' Mamas: Happy Holidays
Charisma Cardz #49: Christmas Makes
Craftymess Challenge #23: Vintage Christmas
Creative Belli #158: candy/sweets
Fab 'n' Funky Challenge #151: Vintage Christmas
Fat Pages & Cards with Attitude: Always Anything Goes
Simon Says Stamp: Your Favorite (Paper: Graphic 45; Tool: BigShot & Spellbinders Dies)
I made a "vintage" Telescoping Card, using some beautiful Graphic 45 papers:
I distressed on the pieces with Vintage Photo distress ink, and coated all the pieces with Creative Medium for a vintage texture. I pulled all the candy-cane-themed paper from my mom's Christmas stash (yeah, I had lots of crafting fun during my visit!) and realized later that it was all (with one possible exception) Graphic 45 brand!
I added red Stickles and cream Liquid Pearls.

Thank you for visiting,
This is such a cool design. I haven't seen a telescoping card before. Very cute use of the G45 papers. The Stickles and LP detail around the edge frames it beautifully. Thanks for joining our Anything Goes Challenge at Fat Pages With Attitude. I hope we see you again soon.
