Honey Jar for Just Us Girls

Hi all - hope you're having a wonderful day! I'm here with a card for the current Just Us Girls Challenge #740 where they have a fabulous mood board.

Supplies: Paper - Neenah Solar White; many scraps;

Core'dinations plaid; Paper Studio Holiday;

Dies - Spellbinders Honey Bee Jar (DOML-Jan24) &

Four Petal Thank You Floral;

Poppystamps - Flower and Leaf Sprinkles;

My Favorite Things Flowers & Filler

Whimsy Stamps - Doodled Doily (retired)

Hot Foil Plate with die - Waffle Flower Classic Happy Birthday

Other - Hero Arts enamel dots; foam tape

Here's the mood board - so summery:

I was inspired by the sweet honey jar with the burlap topper in the middle right square. I couldn't find my burlap embossing folder but used a linen one, embossed vertically then horizontally, on my jar topper. Love the texture! Also used some string twine rather than the die cut bow I used on a previous jar card. When I made a Four Petal card earlier this week, I had some extra bits; you can see them in the photo of my organizational tray on that post. Started with those and changed up the arrangement using some diecuts from other brands. Of course I had to use the sweet bee that comes in the honey jar set. Assembled all the pieces.

The jar overwhelms an A2 card, I think, so I used an A7 card formed from green cardstock. Layered a piece of pink plaid patterned paper and added a "ground" with a doily for the jar to sit. Added the jar to the card using foam tape. I had Betterpressed a few of the WF Happy Birthday hot foil plate when I made Darnell's bday card so I used one here.

I'll also add my card to Snippets Playground Challenge #486 since I used many scraps to die cut elements of my jar. Here's a photo of some of my snippets:

I'll also link up to Tic Tac Toe Challenge #254 where I used the right vertical column with patterned paper, dry embossing & blue.

That's all for today! Thanks for stopping by & have a crafty day!!
