Happy Fab Jar

Time for the weekend peeps! We have had a few nice days and it’s to get colder today and we are to have rain, thanks Linda! LOL! My friend in Chicago sends the weather this way, I tell her only send the good stuff! I had a nice visit with my friend Marissa yesterday at the Store, she came by to pick up her Lawn Fawn goodies and we chatted and she looked through some of my early work, we had a good laugh! Renee left a little early to have dinner with her kids, it makes me very happy when she gets to spend time with them! I left around 6:00 and had dinner with my Parents and then cleaned a little before my friend Jim came over. We had a nice evening, listening to music and watching videos. Today there is a one day crop so I’ll get to spend a little time with the ladies! 😀

I of course had to play with some of the new Lawn Fawn goodies yesterday and I have to say that one of my favorite new sets is Fab Flowers. I stamped a bunch of them in Lawn Fawn Ballet Slippers, Bubblegum, Fresh Lavender, Juice Box, Sunflower, Carrot, Freshly Cut Grass, Noble Fir, Merman and Peacock. They are all cut out with the Coordinating Dies and put aside. Next I stamped the jar from the Lawn Fawn How You Bean? Photopolymer Stamp Set in Minty Fresh. I used the Add On Dies to cut out the Jar, a piece of Acetate and a piece of Solar White 80lb. On the back panel I stamped the stems in Jalapeño Ink. To make the shaker I used the same die that I used to cut out the jar to cut out a piece of 1/4″ Fun Foam. Each layer is adhered with 1/8″ Scor-Tape, I added some Pretty Pink Posh Share Kindness Mix Sequins and some Clear Seed Beads before adding the back panel. For my card base I used Neenah Solar White 100lb Card Stock and a piece of the Watercolor Wishes Petite Paper cut out with the Lawn Fawn Zig Zag Rectangles Stackables. My greeting is from the Lawn Fawn Happy, Happy, Happy Photopolymer Stamp Set, I stamped the Happy in Juice Box and the everything in Peacock. The happy is cut out with the Coordinating Lawn Cuts. I adhered the jar the card and then used more 1/4″ Fun Foam and E-Z Runner to adhered the flowers, the butterfly and happy are adhered with 3M Foam Tape. I really do love the flowers and Lawn Fawn Inks, it’s a nice simple layered set made even more fun with the jar! I hope that you like my card for today! Thank you for visiting today! Have a super Saturday! 🙂

  1. This is the ultimate spring card!! If spring doesn’t come now…..here in Bamberg/Bavaria/Germany we have a wonderful spring day today. People are outside walking, enjoing the sun. Wishing you a happy crafting Saturday.

    1. Thank you Ingrid! I’ll be spring is just lovely where you are! I have always wanted to visit Germany, I’m part German myself! Hope that you have a wonderful day! 🙂

      1. Oh yes, the name Krieger sounds very German to me. Living in the South of Germany, I am fond of my place. But I guess, many parts of Germany are awesome. Like of course NYC is an awesome place to be. Have a nice day, take a rest, in between……;-)

        1. Yes, very German! NYC is definitely awesome! But I do love europe! London is my favorite city over there. Hope you enjoy you day! 🙂

  2. Oh Justin – this card is just delicious! I love what you have done and the colors are so amazingly beautiful. This has to be on the top of my list of Justin Cards ever! Question, does Lawn Fawn have reinkers for their stamp pads? I’m trying to find a word that is sufficient to express how much I love all these amazing colors and just can’t come up with anything to truly express how beautiful I think they are.

    Foggy here this morning. Lots of areas in NH have flood warnings out because the snow is melting so rapidly. However, winter is not done with us here in the northeast. It is forecast to turn colder and by the end of the week add some new snow to what is left of the old snow. We’ll see. Exciting day tomorrow – Daytona 500 will be on and another racing season will begin. Yeah! Wishing you a Sensational Saturday my friend and I think your amazing. Love and hugs to you, XXOO 🙂

    1. Thank you so much Grace! I love the Lawn Fawn ink colors and yes they have re-inkers for all of them!
      We had the same fog here. We have colder weather but are to warm up in a few days again. I’m ready for Spring to be here! Have fun with your race, I know how you love them! Love and hugs to you! XOXO 🙂

  3. My first thought was a Happy card. Bright fresh colours definitely spring on a card, love it and pinned it. I like the fact Lawn Fawn made the dies for a shaker card, and I like the label in the set, great idea. Haven’t commented in a while but sounds as if you’ve had a mild winter, gotta like that! Have a great week end.

    1. Thank you Lynne! I too love that Lawn Fawn makes shaker dies and then label in the set is fun! We have had a pretty mild Winter, I’m happy about that! Hope you have a lovely weekend! 🙂

  4. I agree with Grace about how beautiful this card is. I love those colors and the shaker in the jar. as well as the font of the happy. Your card goes along with the beautiful springlike days we’ve been having, but I think they are coming to an end at least for a few days. Have a great weekend, Justin.

    1. Thank you HJ! The colors are nice and vibrant! I love the floral set, one of my faves from the new release! Yes, we are to have some cold weather too, but it’s to warm up again soon! You have a fabulous weekend! 🙂
