Jar of Love Day 4

Today's card was quite easy to create.  I stamped the flowers in Pumpkin Pie and then Tangerine Tango (stamping off once).  I stamped the leaves directly on the white cardstock in Old Olive ink and only had to die cut three flowers.  Wanting something a little different for today's card, a square card would different.  The background paper is from the retired Fruit Stand DSP collection.  There are no sequins on the card, but I am missing a little bling.  Maybe a rhinestone or two will be added!  The card is 5-1/4" square and it will require extra postage if mailed.  Have a great day!

Sending Love

Here is another Jar of Love card.  (By the end of the week you will either want this set or you will be done with it~~LOL!) I truly am enjoying the stamp set   For today's card I used the Sunshine Wishes framelits heart and "love".   After deciding that the card base would be Watermelon Wonder, I stamped and cut out the items that would be that color.  I then just played with colors to make the heart wreath colorful.  Somehow I worked Perfect Plum into the mix and even made the wreath Perfect Plum.  This is a pretty card and I will be sending this one to my mother-in-law.  Have a great day and find yourself a little stampin' time!

Shaker Jar of Flowers

I think this will be "Jar of Love" week on my blog.   I am spending way too much time in my scrap room playing with the stamp set and dies.  For this card, I used an acetate sheet and sequins to create a shaker jar.  The framelit set has a die to cut out the center of the jar which makes it quite easy to create the shaker.  And then the strips of foam now available thru Stampin' Up makes it much easier to be sure all the sequins will stay in the jar.  The colors for today's card are Rose Red and Island Indigo.  Have a great day!

Jar of Flowers

I have looked at the Jar of Love stamp set for a long time.  I really didn't need it and then I happened to look it up on Pinterest.  There were so many cards created with the Jar of Love stamp set and framelits, I finally gave in and ordered them.  I started playing with the stamps as soon as they arrived beginning with using different ink pads to two-step stamp the flowers.  I ended up making flowers using Melon Mambo, Peekaboo Peach and for a little change of color, Tempting Turquoise.  When all the flowers were stamped and die cut, I started putting the card together.  I think it turned out very pretty (But I wish I had  a little baby's breath to add here and there!)  I spent a lot of time on this card and it was well worth the time!  Have a great day!
