Cute Card to Accompany a Homemade Baked Gift.

Cute Card to Accompany a Homemade Baked Gift. – Sweet Jar – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

If you’re like me, you know that a handmade gift deserves a handmade card! Today I’m sharing a cute card idea that’s perfect for pairing with a batch of homemade biscuits, fudge or any sweet treat. I created this card using the adorable Sweet Jar stamp and punch bundle from Stampin’ Up! I love how it turned out!

A Sweet Design for a Sweet Gift

For the background, I chose a soft blue gingham paper from the Timless Plaid designer series paper (DSP). It reminds me of a cosy kitchen tablecloth, perfect for a baking-themed card. I layered that onto a bright, cheerful Melon Mambo cardstock to make everything pop.

The main focal point is the jar from the Sweet Jar bundle, stamped and cut out with a coordinating punch. I do love punches. Don’t you? I filled it with a vibrant bunch of stamped melon mambo sweets, perfect for sharing a little love! The jar is tied off with a twine bow for an extra touch of rustic charm, and I added a white ribbon to one side for extra texture and sweetness.

Details That Make a Difference

One of my favourite parts of this card is the beautiful stitched circle die behind the jar. This is from the Spotlight on Nature set. I’m so glad it carried over. The tiny cutouts around the edge add such a delicate, handmade feel — it frames the jar beautifully without overwhelming the design.

To finish it off, I added a few silver pearls scattered across the card for a little sparkle and shine. They pick up the light so nicely and give the card just the right touch of elegance.

The sentiment, “for you, a little treat,” couldn’t be more perfect for a gift tag card like this!
