Welcome to the Happy Inkin' Thursday blog hop. You're in for a treat if you have never visited before. It's a weekly challenge and this week we have a sketch challenge.
Here's how I loosely interpreted it using the Jar of Flowers Stamp Set...
.
My card base is Whisper White, with a mat of Mint Macaron, a mat of Designer Series Paper from the In Good Taste 12" x 12" pack. I adhered the mats together and adhered them to the card base with liquid glue .
I used the 4th largest die from the Stitched Rectangles dies to cut the Mint Macaron piece. I embossed it with the Tasteful Textile 3D EF and adhered it to the card front with liquid glue.
I stamped the jar with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a piece of Shimmery White card stock and punched it out with the Jar of Flowers punch. I colored the inside with Pool Party ink and my Water Painter. I stamped the stems inside the jar with MTB ink and colored them with my Dark Jade Stampin' Blends.
With the colors I picked (Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Just Jade, Mint Macaron and Early Espresso) I decided to use the sunflower stamp from Jar of Flowers. I stamped the image on Whisper White card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I used Light and Dark Stampin' Blends to color the flowers and leaves and cut it out.
There are no sentiments in the Jar of Flowers set so I used a sentiment from Special Someone. I stamped it on a scrap piece of Whisper White in Early Espresso and punched it out with the Lovely Labels Pick A Punch. I sponged the edges with Early Espresso. I did a dry fit and then glued the sentiment to the card front with liquid glue. Then I adhered the jar the same way. The flowers I adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals.
The bows are from the Boho Indigo Project Medley and the Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack. I adhered them with glue dots. To finish it off, I used three Metallic Pearls.
This is the first time I have inked up the Jar of Flowers set so I'm entering my card in NBUS #18 once again!
