How to Make a Filled with Sweetness Jar Card – Stampin’ Blends.

How to Make a Filled with Sweetness Jar Card – Stampin’ Blends. – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK.

Today I’m sharing a bright and cheerful card made using the Filled with Sweetness Stamp and Die Bundle. This design features a sweet jar filled with strawberries and blueberries, coloured with Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers for a vibrant, smooth finish.

I’ve created two versions of this card using the beautiful colour combination of Strawberry Slush and Blueberry Bushel. These colours work perfectly together and really make the fruit images pop against the clean background.

This is a fun card to make and a great way to practise colouring with Stampin’ Blends.

Creating the Jar Focal Point

The main focal point of this card is the large jar image from the Filled with Sweetness bundle. After stamping the jar, I coloured the fruit using Stampin’ Blends to add depth and dimension.

The strawberries were coloured using shades of Strawberry Slush, while the blueberries were coloured with Blueberry Bushel. Using alcohol markers makes blending colours easy and helps create a smooth, professional finish. I also added a little shading around the inside of the jar to give the impression of glass and depth.

Once the colouring was complete, I used the coordinating dies to cut out the jar and lid.

Adding Layers and Background Interest

To frame the jar, I layered it onto a piece of patterned paper that coordinates with the card base. The two versions of this card show how simply changing the background colour can give the design a completely different look.

One card uses Strawberry Slush tones, while the other uses Blueberry Bushel, creating two bright and cheerful designs from the same layout.

Layering your patterned paper and cardstock helps to create contrast and draws the eye towards the focal image.

Measurements

• Strawberry Slush & Blueberry Bushell Cardstock – A6 Card Base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half.
• Basic White Cardstock – 14.35cm X 10cm.
• Strawberry Slush / Azure Afternoon designer series paper (DSP) – 13.85 cm x 9.5cm.

Finishing Touches

The jar lid was die cut and added slightly overlapping the jar to create a realistic look. I tied a small bow around the jar using Misty Moonlight Checked ribbon, which adds a lovely country-style feel to the design.

The sentiment “You’re the Sweetest” fits perfectly with the fruit theme and was stamped onto a small banner before being tucked slightly behind the jar lid.

These little details bring the whole card together and make the design feel polished and complete.

This card layout is versatile and would work beautifully for thank you cards, friendship cards, or even birthdays. You could also change the fruit colours to create completely different looks.
