I was recently invited to a picnic-themed bridal shower. The adorable Mason jars in this stamp set were just perfect! I used the color theme from the invitation to make the card and matching package decoration. When I arrived it was so fun to see that each table was decorated with a Mason jar filled with fresh pink and yellow flowers- I really wish I had thought to take a picture!
Older Mason jars were a pretty blue which I attempted to recreate by layering vellum over Soft Sky cardstock.
I haphazardly pleated a piece of the wrapping paper and used it to ground the jar and tie the package and card colors together.
Watermelon Wonder hearts are sandwiched between the vellum and the Soft Sky cardstock. I used the largest jar for the card and the middle-sized jar for the package decoration.
It was a bit hard to photograph the package and the card together!

This is so sweet, Betty, the card and the package decoration. I am sure the bride-to-be loved it all! The Woodgrain look for the card is perfect for that gorgeous jar of flowers and the ribbon looks fantastic on the card and package too!

ReplyDeleteCould you please tell me if you know if our new strips adhesive will show up behind transparent cardstock on top of black or gray cardstock? I'm making cards and using your idea (part of it) for my wedding cards. Thank you so much for sharing!
