Here is my entry for the Cricut Circle Blog's Monthly Challenge. Their challenge was to design a scrapbook page or home decoration project with the theme "Celebrating Creativity". I didn't know what to make. I wasn't going to enter the challenge because I could not think of anything to make. Then I had some inspiration while shopping. I thought this candy jar needed to be decorated with a seasonal topper. And don't stop there, I plan to make one for every season. I can just picture switching the color on the sunflower to reds and it can be a poinsettia for Christmas. So, look forward to more candy jar toppers because I am on a creative roll with this idea.
