Vintage Jar

Last night was my April Stamper’s Club meeting and we made this cute Vintage Jar. At least I thought it turned out cute. It was another last minute project that I finally figured out as I was going to bed. And then got up the next morning and still remember what I had finally figured out so I could actually create it.

I got these little jars through the bulk buy group and had used them for the pin cushion button jars but wanted to come up with something else too. I have made these little scrunchy folders for the last few weeks and thought it would pretty to add one to the top of one of these jars. I used the First Edition Designer Series paper and punched using several punches lots of layers. I scrunched them all up and then flattened them back out, stack them up and punch a hole through the center. Add the antique brad. Here is a close up:

The Love Letter DSP is on the lid – cut with the Big Shot and the 3″ circle die – this one is just flat. The punches I used on the First Edition papers were 2-1/2″ Circle punch, 2-3/8″ Scallop Circle punch, 1-3/4″ Scallop Circle punch, 1″ circle punch. I cut a piece of Cherry Cobbler card stock with the Big Shot and the Beautiful Wings Embosslit – added the largest one to the top of the flower and the bitty one to my ribbon. Oh, the ribbon around the lid is the 1-1/4″ Striped Grosgrain Ribbon in Basic Black – cut in half – so just half of it was used to wrap around the jar lid and tie in a bow. The last little thing is the stamped jewelry tag using the “{love}” from Tiny Tags. It was tied around the brad using some Linen Thread.
