Oh I just melted I thought it was so sweet! Here is my case of it & Wendy, I hope I've done you proud! Click here to go to Wendy's blog post for this card & she's also got a YouTube video there for you to watch.


I started off with a Night of Navy cardstock base, layered with Elegant Eggplant & Whisper White. I have sponged the bottom quarter of the Whisper White cardstock with Crumb Cake & the rest of the piece with Daffodil Delight. I have then used the largest splotch from the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set & the stars from the Made with Love stamp set all over the top half with Versamark & set Clear Heat Emboss Powder with my Heat Tool.

Next, I have added the sponged layers of Flirty Flamingo, Elegant Eggplant & Night of Navy up to the top. I have also added the bush in the bottom corner from the Jars of Love stamp set in Crumb Cake. 


For the jar, I have used my Big Shot to die cut the fireflies in Daffodil Delight & the jar  in Whisper White, both stamped with Momento Black. I have also used the jar framelit to cut a Window (acetate) sheet and a piece of Vellum for the back of the jar. I have heat embossed the lid with Gold before die cutting that, too. I have added the fireflies & Gold Sequins (pulled off the Trim) inside the jar & sealed with a single strip from the Foam Adhesive Strips.

I have also heat embossed the Gold sentiment onto Elegant Eggplant & used the Sweetheart punch before layering it with some Flirty Flamingo Ruched Ribbon. And I have added a few dots here & there with the Gold Wink of Stella pen all over the front of the card.


I have also flicked the inside of the card with the Gold Wink of Stella pen & stamped the sentiment in Elegant Eggplant & the bush in Crumb Cake & then sponged over both with Flirty Flamingo. The inside of the card is also layered with Elegant Eggplant & Whisper White cardstock to match the front.

All of these products are from Stampin' Up! and are available on my Online Shop - please see below for the link & more info on how you can get freebies from me.
