I received a Sizzix set for my birthday and needed some thank you cards…
It’s called Jar of Flowers…
I inked the “water” while it was still in the die, then blended over the stalks after they were glued.
I’m taking this to the Allsorts challenge #851 (flowers, from the garden)
I received a handmade card from a Welsh relative (see below) that I tried to copy…
Mine are not as good, but they were quick and simple, and time was short.
(I think the solid leaf+stem is Uniko)
The Welsh card is at the bottom of the picture above.
I love the bright colours, and they were textured and raised on foam pads, with a doodled frame.
The next one was also simple. I cut a blue jar and added the jar grey “grooves” from the set.
I used lots and lots of snippets for stems and flowers, so I’m visiting the
Some Snippets used…
Here is an earlier post in March using this set for the first time.
Have a good day
Thanks for taking the time to visit, and I really appreciate your comments
Take care and see you soon

A lovely die set for your birthday and you've made some pretty thank you cards. Found this post when I scrolled down to see if any of 'regulars' had posted since Mr Blogger isn't always moving them to the top of my list. Thank you for sharing it with the Allsorts challenge.
