One of the new stamp sets I bought is called Jar of Love. It has SO many possibilities, with three sizes of jars, LOTS of accessories, AND matching framelits! I loved the little fish, and decided to use him for my birthday card.
I started with a Pool Party card base, topped with a thin layer of Whisper White and then a layer of In Color Designer Series Paper in Peekaboo Peach. And because my focal image would be smaller, I added a bow of Peekaboo Peach Ruched Ribbon along the top.
I stamped my jar in Smoky Slate, and added "water" with Pool Party (this is a stamp, and fits perfectly in all three of the jars). I cut the jar, handle, bow, flower and fish with the framelits (SO easy!), popping up the handle on really skinny pieces of Dimensionals.
The tag was stamped, using Barnyard Babies, and cut with the new Bunch of Banners Framelits.
And then the inside:
Yes, I made another pop-up fish card! Isn't it cute?
I "broke" the jar by hand-cutting it, and created the spilled water with the Swirly Scribbles Thinlits (sponged with Pool Party).
And "Best Fishes" (from Jar of Love) was stamped inside Mr. Fish's mouth.
