Jar of Hearts

This is another one of the cards we will be making at my 'Prefectly Preserved class on Saturday, 1st Dec at 2pm.  The jar stamp is really versatile as it can be a jar of anything, really- jam, hearts, flowers or even buttons.  I stamped the jar onto a separate piece of Crumbcake cardstock and, to make the string stay where I wanted it to, I cut ridges into the the top of the jar.  I ran the hearts through an embossing folder to give it a bit of texture.  I also used Stampin' Dimensionals to make the jar stand out a bit from the page.

Perfectly Preserved

I had a lot of fun creating this card.  I was inspired by an American Stampin'Up! demonstrator called Jamilla Ivits.  She used woodgrain paper for her background, but I was wondering what it would look like using the woodgrain embossing folder and I was happy with the results.
I used string for the stems of the pears.  It gives it quite a rustic look and would be suitable for a male birthday card.   This is one of three designs we will be making at my card class on Saturday, 1st December at 2pm.  Email me at cookv3@tpg.com.au if you would like to join me.

Tomorrow I will post something else I have made from this set.
