Jar Of Succulents

Hello!

Today's card will be entered into the Challenges at; Simon Says Monday, Touchy Feely, Simon Says Wednesday, Emboss It and Scrapy Land, Anything Goes.

 

 

I used the Stampin' Up! Oh So Succulent stamp and die sets, Papertrey Ink products; Just The Jar--Quart and Funky Town Designer Paper.  Inks in Bermuda Bay, Black Raven, Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry, Daffodil Delight, More Mustard, Perfect Plum, Pink Pirouette, Rich Razzleberry, Rose Red, Wild Wasabi and Wisteria Wonder.  Lots of ink!!!

 

 

 

 

The 3 larger succulents have been stamped and die cut, they add a bit more dimension to this card.  MFT Stitched Traditional Tags die and Penny Black Border Edges die.  I added a little texture with half of a doily.  And my dies did all the embossing while cutting--gotta love that!  Eyelet and Sheer Ribbon (which I will trim again before sending, it always frays).  Enamel Dots.  Wink Of Sell Clear Glitter Pen for a bit of sparkle and shine.

 

I really adore this Stampin' Up! set.  It's a lot of FUN to play with!

 

And because it's Father's Day, here's a shout out to some of the AMAZING Dads and to-be Dads, in my life!!!  We are so blessed to have had you all.  My Dad is no longer with us, but I feel him everyday, just over my shoulder and in my heart! xoxo

Double D, Harvest Blessings And Give Thanks

Good Morning!

A brand new Challenge is underway at the Double D Challenge Blog, Harvest Blessings And Give Thanks.

Check out this beautiful Mood Board to inspire your creativity!

 

 

And here is my card:

 

 

I do love Fall.  I also love jars on cards.  Here I have collected a few of the most colorful acorns I have ever seen.  I used several Papertrey Ink products; Jar & Lid die, Just The Jar--Quart, stamp and dies, Friendship Jar Fall Fillers stamp and the Blessings die from Counting My Blessings set.  I also used the Poppystamps Verona Flourish die, it has the most beautiful leaves, which I cut out of Bronze Glitter Paper.  Spellbinders Classic Oval die.  

 

 

 

Wood Grain Designer Paper for my background.  Images colored with Copic Markers.  Fall Ribbon, Button and Twine for accents.  And for a glittery sparkle and shine I added Stickles in corresponding colors to my acorns.  Black Licorice ink. 

 

You have plenty of time to join in on the current Challenge.....hope to see you there!

 

Thanks for falling in.

Jar o' Butterflies

Good afternoon!

A fun little card to share with you today!

 

I used the Papertrey Ink stamp and die sets; Flower Favorites, Just The Jar--Quart and Jar And Lid.  I die cut the butterflies out of white card stock and then colored 4 of them with different colored Copic Markers, then stamping them with details in corresponding colors.  Finally adding coordinating Baker's Twine to each one.  I also added an Ombre Blue Baker's Twine to the top of my jar and hi-lighted it with a Copic Marker.



 

 

Spellbinders Decorative Labels 8 for my layering background.  The Fanciful Flourish by Cheery Lynn was cut twice, in black and white card stock.  I layered the 2 so it would POP a bit!  My lovely black and white gingham ribbon to tie it all together.  And a bit of Wink Of Stella Clear Pen has been added to each butterfly.

Thinking Of You

Hello!

I can honestly say I love flowers and I love jars....and I just adore flowers IN jars!  :)

This card will be entered into the Challenges at Simon Says Monday, April Showers Bring May Flowers and Simon Says Wednesday, Polka Dots.

 

 

I used the stamp and die sets from Papertrey Ink; Vintage Linens, Just The Jar--Quart.  I 'water colored' the flowers.  Jar was die cut out of water color paper and a layer of Vellum, which I then gently sponged the edge of in Pool Party ink, to give it the look of glass.  Adding pale blue sequins to the bottom right corner to give the appearance of water.  Easy technique and love the way it looks.



Stamped the sentiment form Gina K Designs, All Occasion Tags onto an MFT Traditional Stitched Tag die in Black Licorice ink.   A little Bakers' Twine and a few more sequins in orange and green.  Designer Paper is by DCWV, Glitter Basics.  Black Sakura Pen to hi-light center of flowers as well as a bit of Wink Of Stella Clear.  3 Dimensionals to pop up flowers.

***** WARNING*****  I will be using this jar set a lot!!!

Thanks for coming by.  Hopefully tomorrow I will be in the gardens.....we are still experiencing cool weather and now the winds have kicked up.....Spring is very late this year!  Sigh.

Enjoy~~
