The Lawnscaping Challenge blog has a photo inspiration challenge going on right now and I'm excited to submit my participation to this one!! We are to create a project inspired by an element of the photo, either the colors or any of the images--whatever your take is of the photo! Now, let's take a look at the inspiration photo below:
So, recently I won a Michaels gift card in a blog hop. With it, I ended up buying this beautiful mason jar stamp that I am head over heels with!!! ♡ I've been creating so many things w/this stamp, which is why I decided to also make a card using the same stamp for this challenge! I paper pieced the mason jar using pattern paper from an Echo Park 6x6 designer paper pad. Then, I glued yellow baker's twine around the lid and added a yellow rhinestone to the bow. I also embossed the grayish panel with my Cuttlebug (Swiss Dots folder). The dragonflies are from Lawn Fawn's "Critter's in the Forrest" set and I stamped them on vellum paper, using gray Memento ink and then sprinkled glitter/embossing powder in "sugar crystals" by Martha Stewart. As I was cutting out the dragonflies, I cut a tiny circle around the tip of each drangonfly, which I later colored in yellow to give it the appearance of sparkly lights. The sentiment I got from the Michaels $1 bin and I'm currently in love with it, too--can't stop using it! heheh (:
And here's my card... Hope you like it as much as I do! :D
