Jar of Joy card – CCC205

Hello! I hope you are well. The colour combination from this week’s Creative Colour Challenge gave me a perfect excuse to get an online exclusive stamp set inky for the first time. Indeed, it gave me an excuse to create my first Christmas card of 2025! This is my Jar Of Joy card…

ABOUT MY CARD

I’ve been itching to play with this Jar Of Joy stamp set and now that I’ve started, I feel even more sure that it’s going to be a firm favourite for creating this years Christmas cards! The jar outline and lid was stamped with Early Espresso ink, then I stamped the main gingerbread man image with Crumb Cake and finally stamped the details with Strawberry Slush. The jar and lid were then cut with the Sweet Jar Builder punch.

I used the Perennial Postage dies cut 2 pieces of Basic White card. I stamped the larger one with the Falling Snow background stamp, using Versamark ink, added white embossing powder and heat set it…

The smaller postage die cut was stamped with a sentiment from Jar Of Joy, using Strawberry Slush ink. I blended a little bit of Crumb Cake ink to the edges of both pieces then backed them with Early Espresso card. The jar was popped up with dimensionals and I added some sparkle gems to the card front.

I added a layer of white card to the inside and stamped the cute little snowman from the Jar Of Joy set with Early Espresso and Strawberry Slush inks. The sentiment is from this awesome stamp set too…

Isn’t this outrageously cute?
