It's hard to believe, but we're halfway through summer! For some people, it will soon be time to get out canning jars & start putting up produce from their gardens. I don't do much canning, but I do use a lot of canning jars around my house! They are so convenient to use for storage, plus for standing in as vases for cut flowers. The card above is one that I recently made & then decided to make several of them to use for the cards I will be sending out in August.
I am re-sharing a tip from last month:
SIMPLE STAMPING TIP #2 --- Stamp a stack of cards each month to have ready to send.
It is easy to make up a set of cards, just alike, to have ready to send whenever you need one.
Here is the Jar of Love stamp set:
With all of the different sentiments, flowers, & little extras, this is a very cute set to play with! There is a matching die cut set available also, that makes it even more fun. Here are a few cards that I made last summer with these stamps:
The card at the top also features the Wood Textures paper, that I've been using a lot lately. The distressed look pairs nicely with the canning jars.
Finally, it's time for me to announce the winner of the give-away! It is . . . . Pam, my stamping friend in Alaska! She was part of my stamping group several years ago when we lived there & I remember that she made beautiful cards. I'm sure she will create some nice projects with this paper that I will be sending her. Congratulations Pam!
Thank you to everyone who has subscribed to my blog. I hope you will find my tips to be useful in your own paper-crafting. Give-aways are fun . . . I will likely be doing another one in a few weeks.
