Challenge #30 @ Love to Scrap - Anything Goes!

Time for another "anything goes" challenge @ Love to Scrap!  The only requirement is to have a stamped image on your project - the theme, colors, and products are all up to you!

One of our sponsors for this challenge is Lawn Fawn.  If you haven't tried any of their stamps or dies, they are awesome!  For my card, I used the Summertime Charm stamp set and matching dies.  I used a mix of Copic coloring, stamping on patterned paper, and stamping with colored inks to make the jar and flowers.  I diecut a jar from a transparency and placed that over the top of the stamped image to look more like a glass jar. 

 
I really love the images in this stamp set, and I think you can get a lot of use out of the jar stamp by pairing it with other images.

Be sure to link up your project to the Love to Scrap blog for a chance to win a stamp set and 6x6 pad of your choice from Lawn Fawn, OR a $10 gift certificate to Stitchy Bear's Digi Outlet, who is our second sponsor for this challenge.

I'm also entering this card in the Sentimental Sundays challenge to use flowers and the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge to use flowes and the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge to use die cuts (I used Lawn Fawn dies that match the stamp set).

A 10 minute card challenge



Lawn Fawn stamps sponsored  a 10-minute card challenge at Pretty Pink Posh this month, and since I had just purchased three of their stamp sets, I decided to join in the challenge.  Now I have never completed a card in 10 minutes before, so I had no idea if it was even possible.  But, according to the stopwatch app on my phone this card took me 8 minutes and 38 seconds.  Whew!

 
I used two different sets for this card:  Summertime Charm for the jar (and the die for this set, also) and Sweet Christmas for the sentiment and the peppermint candies.  I colored the jar lid with Copics and colored the peppermint candies with Spica glitter markers.  The finishing touches were a twine bow and some outlining with a fine tip black pen.
