I have another new card to share with you this morning, this time combining a few of the new sets from the June release, with an older set from our April release – Fleur Impessions. I love combining different sets, it opens a whole new world of possibilities as our product line-up grows!
I just love how this card turned out, it’s another of my favorites of all of the cards I created using the new June products! I hesitated to share it with you today, as I don’t like to tempt you with products that aren’t currently available, but I thought I’d go ahead and share it as inspiration for those of you that were lucky enough to snag the Just Mason Around set during the release. 🙂 That set went pretty quickly, but it is on re-order and should be back in stock in 3-4 weeks.
A little about this card…the flowers are of course from the Fleur Impressions set, and the greenery is a mix of leaves from Fleur Impressions, with a little eucalyptus from the Simple Things set thrown in as well. The background was done using the outline image from Summer Sketches…I warned you I was addicted to creating backgrounds with that set! 😉 I stamped some in Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide ink, and then also created the strip along the bottom by heat embossing the images in white, and then sponging over them using the same Fossilized Amber ink. For the jar, I did a bit of masking on the bottom mostly solid layer of the jar image so that it would give the look of a jar being partially filled with water. Then I stamped the other two layers of the jar image like normal, without any masking. I added the stems in the jar just by drawing them in with colored pencils.
I hope you enjoyed today’s inspiration, and I hope you’re enjoying your new stamps and dies if you picked some up during the June release!

I was one of the lucky to get the mason jar set, and I have been enjoying playing around with it! Beautiful card today! Thanks for sharing 😀
Absolutely love it. I have been having so much fun with the jar set!
Love the contrast you achieved with the fleur impressions background! Beautiful card!
Beautiful card. I’d love to have a real bouquet just like that! But I’ll have to do the best I can to create a card with your inspiration
Hi Betsy! I was admiring your beautiful card and realized how much depth you achieved with your floral background. Amazing Betsy, really. Floral Sketches was one of the few I didn’t order, but may have to change that soon. Every spare minute, I’m in my craft room working with your stamps & dies and I LOVE THEM. Your designs still take my breath away! Thank you for the lovely inspiration today! 😊
I love how the scale of the Fleur Impressions works so well with the jar. Beautiful card!
So, Betsy, you are definitely an enabler and the BEST promoter of your products all wrapped into one! This card is spectacular and appreciate you sharing how you accomplished this beauty. When my budget allows and all products are restocked, I will be buying all of these sets. 😊
Beautiful card. I tried yesterday to place an order for the jar and discovered I was too late. So now I have to wait until it is back in stock. It is the best jar design I have ever seen. And, I love how you used it with the pretty peonies.
Oh, Betsy, I love this card! I’ll definitely be purchasing the cute jar set as soon as it’s restocked!
Your cards are ALWAYS so beautiful!
I have five other jar stamps and yours is just the most versatile and all around best. Thanks for the lovely card example.
