Today's card will be entered into the Challenge at Stamp TV, Falling Leaves and the Challenge at Simon Says Wednesday, Anything Goes.
I enjoyed making this card, grabbing inspiration from Pinterest......that site is AHmazing!!!
I began by stamping the 'falling leaves' on a piece of card stock, once I liked how they looked I splattered it with some orange craft paint, then I cut them into 3 panels. I then stamped the jar image onto blue card stock and Vellum, as I knew I wanted to make it look like a glass jar, and what better way to do that than with Vellum? I stamped 10 smaller leaves for the jar contents, coloring them, with Copic Markers, in assorted fall colors. Filling the jar with the leaves I then laid the piece of stamped Vellum on top, adhering it with a small amount of Scor Tape on the outer edges, I don't think you can even tell it is there. I then stamped 4 more leaves and colored them in solid colors--one for the inside of the card. The 3 panels are popped up as well as the jar. A bit of jute twine to give it a more rustic look and wha la! I really enjoyed this project. Stamp sets are, Buds and Vases and Fall Foliage, both by Gina K Designs.
Happy Fall......hope you are able to do what you like on this fabulous Saturday!
Thanks for popping in!
Enjoy~~
Let me be the first to say that you are so very clever and an amazing paper crafter. I love, love this card and the vellum jar. I am going to remember this trick. So cool to put in the leaves. I can think of lots of things to put in future jars. Great job!
