Stampin' Up! Jar of Joy

Today's card is all about sweet holiday cheer! I pulled out my Jar of Joy set from Stampin' Up! and created the cutest cookie jar filled with gingerbread.

I love how versatile this set is. You can fill the jars with so many different things, but for this card, I couldn't resist turning it into a jar packed with holiday cookies. The little gingerbread pieces look so festive, and the jar really makes them the star of the show.

What would you fill your jar with?

1. White cardstock- 8-1/2" x 5-1/2"

Score at 4-1/4"

2. DSP- 5-1/4" x 4" add to card front.

3. Cut a strip of cardstock 3/4" x 5-1/4" and glue to card front. Cut a strip of DSP 5-1/4" X 5/8" and glue partially over DSP strip.

4. Die cut sentiment label and stamp sentiment in Early Espresso. Die cut circle die, and tuck under DSP strip.

5. Stamp jar in Early Espresso, and fill jar using Cherry Cobbler/Crumb Cake. Cut lid out of Early Espresso. Tie a bow with twine, and put on lidPop up on card with dimentionals.

6. Pop up sentiment with dimentionals on card.
