Pool Party Jar of Joy

My Senior Center gals loved the Jar of Joy card that I did earlier this month, so I decided to try another one with them! This one is in a "non-traditional" color of Pool Party! But, I love it just the same. This is a version of one I saw. It uses the Nests of Winter DSP, still in the Annual Catalog, along with the jar with the cute snowman! I just love it! I think they will, too!

Measurements:

Gray Granite 1/2 sheet cut LENGTHWISE,scrap
Nests of Winter DSP: 4" x 5 1/4" (Pool Party diagonal print); 2 7/8" x 4 1/4" (snowflakes)
Basic White: 3 1/8" x 4 1/2" (front), 4" x 5 1/4" (inside) 2 1/4" square (jar), 1/2" x 4" (sentiment)

To Make this Card:

Adhere Pool Party print to folded Gray Granite card base.
Attach "snowflakes" to White layer, and then add this to card front with squares of Foam Adhesive.
Stamp "jar" in Gray Granite onto square of White. Stamp "snowman" in black, and scarf in Coastal Cabana. The "snow" is stamped off Coastal Cabana, and nose is colored with an orange Blend.
Now, punch out with corresponding Sweet Jar punch. Punch "lid" from scrap of Gray Granite. And, attach to "jar".
Stamp sentiment in Gray Granite onto strip of White. Add to card front over layer, as shown.
Add "jar" to card layer with Dimensionals.
Finish inside with White layer. I also stamped a little snowman inside, if desired.
Finish the outside with some Wink of Stella on the "snow" under the "snowman", and scattered Iridescent Faceted Gems.
