Stampin' Up! Jar of Love & Papillion Potpourri

Heather is a very talented at creating stunning cards using Stampin' Up! products.  Her creations often inspire me to CASE ;-) and today's post showcases a beautiful card Heather has created and our cased examples.  The Jar (from Jar of Love) releasing butterflies (from the Papillion Potpourri set, now retired) and that wonderful Bokeh Designer Series Paper from a retired DSP stack Serene Scenery, gave rise to this beautiful card...

Perfect Plum sponging with a little Old Olive and Marina Mist was a popular colour choice to mimic the technique and instead of butterflied, the A Crafty Cat team chose the fire flies...

The bokeh techniques was achieved by placing a mask of different sized circles over the sponged background and dabbing White Craft Ink over the circular openings of the mask...

The Jar was cut out of velum to give the appearance of a real jar...love that effect! and the fire flies were die cut using the coordinating thinlits...

I love the creations my team shares and how it inspires not only me but the rest of class participants to try something new.  I hope you have a purrrfectly crafty week.
