A Little Celebration

Hi! I’m back with a card to celebrate joining the Sweet Stamp Shop Design Team.  I am also playing along with one of my favorite challenges, CAS(E) this Sketch:

What caught my eye about this sketch are the clean and simple circles and rectangles.  I used StazOn to stamp the mason jar from Sweet Stamp Shop‘s Afternoon Delight Set onto Grafix Craft Plastic.  The sentiment is from the same stamp set.  I used wood embellishments colored with Copics (alcohol inks work very well on most surfaces)  to “fill” the jar with love, placing the wood embellishments in front of and behind the mason jar.  The patterned paper is from Echo Park:

And here is a close up, because I love the layering with craft plastic:

While practicing stamping on clear plastic with StazOn, I created a bunch of little mason jars.  The leftovers will be put to get use as date or milestone markers in my Project Life album and other crafty projects (you will see that cute mason jar again!).  If you have been following the last several posts of mine, you might have noticed that I’ve been using sequins like crazy, so I decided to step away from the sequins for a bit and accent with candy/enamel dots.

So this is me, celebrating!  I’m so glad to be back on the blog! Thanks so much for stopping by! Your comments always bring a smile to my face. xo-Tyra

Sweet!
