Hello! Today, I’m sharing a summer-themed, die-cut card created with Penny Black stamps and dies.
I cut the flowers using the 51-244 Gaiety and 51-242 Shall We Dance die sets, placing the flowers in a vase cut with the 51-142 Mason Jar set. I cut the blooms from green cardstock for the stems and various colors for the blooms. (All cardstock is from Stampin’ Up.) On the colored cardstock die-cuts, I trimmed the blooms from the stems and adhered them to the green die-cuts. I cut the jar from vellum, to which I had added double-sided adhesive. After cutting, but before adhering to the flowers, I added Distress Ink to the vellum to simulate water. I then removed the backing and adhered the jar to the top of the blooms placed on the dry-embossed background.
I stamped the sentiment from the 30-228 Blooming Tags stamp set and cut it with a small tag die. I put the burlap string around the top of the Mason Jar to add a natural element. The Mason Jar shadow was created with an oval die.
Swooning! Perfect job on the jar and just love the entire cheery card!
Fabulous jar bouquet, Jean! Your shading on the jar looks great and I love your combo of flowers!!
Your vellum jar is fab, the added color really adds that perfect touch to your beautiful bouquet card.
This is STUNNING!!!
Really like this design!! What color distress ink did you use on the vellum? I loved that added realism as well as the shadow underneath the jar!! Very clever!
Hi Denise – Thanks! I used Tumbled Glass and/or Broken China.
