For this project I chose to use a Hostess set from the Annual Inspirations catalogue - Sweet as Sugar! I love the fancy candy jars - I though immediately of our favourite candy store and some photos I took a number of years ago that I never got scrapped! 

Here is my layout, made with Blossom paper and complements, and a title cut from the alphabet that is part of the Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge.

This was a fairly quick and easy page to put together, and I had fun filling the candy jars AND finally getting these photos into an album!

Now it's time to hop on over to Krista's Blog, to see what she has in store for you!  Don't forget that this special is only for the month of July, when you spend $25 on current stamps.  It is a great chance to get your favourites before they are retired at the end of August!
