Creative Memories - 'Tis the Season Joy Jar

Simple, simple craft. I stuffed mine with crimped paper strips to take the photo, but imagine how adorable they'd look filled with yummy Christmas candies, mints, chocolates, or jellybeans?!? Fun and easy way to show your appreciation to teachers, neighbours, co-workers...the possibilities are endless.

I recycled an empty candle jar (after enjoying the candle...gift for me, gift for others). I used the "Joy" cut from the Creative Memories 'Tis the Season Cricut cartridge (pg. 41) and cut it from red vinyl. I applied it to the jar using my painter's tape technique (check out the tutorial here on my blog at http://lilbuggerblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/vinyl-application-with-painters-tape_07.html ) and tied a matching red grossgrain ribbon around the top. Easy peasy!!
