Welcome back to my blog 😊
I have had rather a busy week so far!
I am currently in the middle of creating 60 wedding invites for a friends wedding. I have been doing a bit every day this week.
I have all the printing done plus all the backings trimmed.
I have just finished trimming, scoring and burnishing 60 pocket style cards for the invites to go in. Now I have to trim all the printed pieces to fit. Cut, score and burnish the actual pockets and then put them all together ... with the ribbon and bling accents. I plabn on sharing the steps I used for the invites, so stay tuned for that!
I took a break from doing all of that today and created a card for myself 😎
I knew I hadn't entered GDP's challenge this week so I thought I would give that a go.
For my CASE I chose to keep the jar and flowers theme.
Here is my card

I went with my favourite colour scheme of Berry Burst and Lemon Lime Twist with just a touch of black to make it POP.
I used the thinlits that match this stamp set to give the flowers a 3 dimensional appearance. I added an orchid that had fallen off a stem at the top. I covered the flowers with clear wink of stella mixed with a touch of the Berry Burst ink to fill the flowers colour out just a touch more.
I added white perfect accents as water droplets. I achieved this by removing the backing and gluing into place. I even cut an accent in half and added it as a droplet on the side of the glass jar, can you see it!?!
The sentiment is also from the Climbing Orchid stamp set. I adore that font, reminds me of my hand writing when I was about 20 lol

To finish the top of the jar off I added black bakers twine. I put a tiny slit near the edge of the glass ar and poked the 3 strands of twine through to the back. I held it in place with tear and tape. I tied a bow onto the twine then I held the bow in position with a glue dot.
For the inside I stamped the main orchid and then the stems. I then added the little buds to finish off.
Neat huh!
