Filled with Sweetness Card with a Twist

Here's another way to use the "jam jar" from the Filled with Sweetness Dies. I looks like a "normal" card, but I added a "twist". I had this idea, and then Karen Titus elaborated on it and Rachel Traudt shared her color challenge. (Interesting. Deviates from the "traditional" colors suggested by the DSP! I put it all together and...Voila! Give this layout a try with your own favorite colors!

Measurements:

Basic White: 1/2 sheet, 2 5/8" x 3 3/8"
Lovely & Beautiful DSP (N): 4" x 5 1/4" (Fresh Freesia print)
Lemon Lolly: 4" x 4 1/4", scraps
Pool Party: 2 1/8" x 2 3/4"
Daffodil Delight: 2 3/4" x 3"
Fresh Freesia: scrap
Silver Foil: 1" x 3 1/4"

To Make This Card:

Add DSP to folded White card base.
Stamp "jar" in Daffodil Delight ink onto piece of Lemon Lolly cardstock. Die cut with coordinating die, including "slit" in the lid.
Place Foam Adhesive Strips along the outside edges of "jar". Set aside.
Stamp "label" with Pool Party ink onto piece of Pool Party cardstock. Add small die cut heart from Fresh Freesia. (Die is with the bundle dies.)
Die cut the 2 parts of the "citrus slice" of the Made With Sweetness Dies in Lemon Lolly.
Color the solid piece with Lemon Lolly Blend, and then adhere together.
Now, for the insert/message piece.
Die cut "spoon" from Silver Foil. The die is with the Filled with Sweetness Dies.
If desired, stamp "flourish" in Fresh Freesia ink onto White insert.
Before adhering the insert all together, check to make sure that it fits inside the jar. You might need to trim it a little bit to fit within the Adhesive Strips.
Check the desired angle of the spoon, then sandwich/adhere "spoon" between the 2 layers of the insert. Check again.
Now, you can add the "jar" to the front of card.
Then, you can finish the front of the jar, by adding Pool Party "label" with Dimensionals, as well as the "lemon slice".
Finish with scattered Iridescent Rhinestones

Filled with Sweetness Stadium Wave Card

My stampers were fascinated with the Sweet Bug Stadium Wave card I made, so I wanted to share how to make one. The Homemade Sweetness DSP images are just PERFECT for the "waves"! So, I created this "Becky Original" using the DSP and Filled with Sweetness Bundle! I LOVE how it turned out...and it really isn't difficult to make, one the waves are assembled! (And, this orientation only uses 6!)

Measurements:

Secret Sea: 1/2 sheet cut LENGTHWISE, 6" X 10" (waves), scrap (label)
Basic White: 1/4 sheet (jar), scraps
Granny Apple Green: strings, bow
Homemade Sweetness DSP (N): 4" x 5 1/4" (blue check - front), 2 pcs 4" x 5 1/4" (inside), 1 1/2" x 4 1/2" (jar topper) (small floral), fussy cut small jam jars

To Make This Card:

Score the Secret Sea base @ 5 3/8" from each end, creating an 1/8" "gusset" for the "bulk" of the waves.
Adhere the "blue check" to the front, and the 2 pcs of small floral to the inside, trimming a bit, if necessary.
Next, we'll create the waves. For this version, we need 6 - 1" "waves".
Score across the 10" side @ 4 - 8" - 8 3/4" - 9 1/2".
Cut into 6 - 1" strips that measure 1" x 10"
Next, crease each strip creating a "valley" fold. the 1/2" at the bottom you will use to attach the top and bottom together. I also used tear n tape to put these together.
To make the entire "mechanism", first place tear n tape on the right side of each "wave" with the folds to the top.
Then, assemble them together over lapping them 1/2" and adhering them to the tear n tape.
Lastly, place tear n tape on the top and bottom "waves". These will adhere them to the inside of the card.
Next, we'll insert the "mechanism" to the "spine" with Multipurpose Glue. This takes a little time to dry, put DOES work perfectly! I held it for a while, and then propped it up to finish drying. (For our class purposes, I'm going to try my low temp glue gun.)
Next, I removed the tear in tape of the top "wave" and closed the card. Repeat for the bottom "wave". And, voila the wave is done! It's really NEAT!!
Next, I fussy cut 6 "jam jars" (one of each) and adhered them to the "waves".
For the front, I stamped a "jar" in Misty Moonlight ink, and die cut with coordinating die.
I also die cut a jar topper, granny apple "strings", and a label from Misty Moonlight scrap. Also cut a White label, and cut along the dotted lines! Stamp sentiment in Misty Moonlight ink.
Stamp "strawberry" and "blueberries" in Memento Black ink, and color with Blends. Die cut with coordinating dies.
Assemble all on front of card.
To finish the inside, I added a White panel to the inside from the Nested Essentials Dies.
