I have been busy making plum jam the last week and it looks just so homely with all the jars lined up on the bench. One of the jars in particular caught my eye and inspired todays project! I absolutely adore the Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper and co-ordinating Fresh Vintage stamp set, and accessories - it is just the perfect kind of vintage and reminds me of my Nana who was a great jam maker.
This card was inspired by one created by Jan Radu. I loved how she had used the top note die with DSP to create an extra opening on the card. It really suits this vintage look too!
How cute is the paper, ribbon and brad on this jar - and you can get them all for FREE until the end of March - awesome!!
The finished ensemble ready for giving!
So, that's my projects - now it's time to carry on with the hop, by heading over to the fabulous Madonna Dunn!

Just gorgeous Sharlene! I love them! I used a similar design card with the top note to make gift card cards for kids for Christmas.

Sharlene I love the old worldy (vintage) look of all your creations. The DSP certainly lends itself well to the vintage look. Cheers Donna Zammit :)
Loved Jan's clever top note 'door' card and love yours too. Your card is gorgeous using the beautiful DSP. Love your jam jar- so sweet!!!

What a perfect little 'thank you' gift, a jar of jam and a matching card. These are just beautiful, thanks for sharing.
Just love this paper and the card is unusual and interesting, getting the little grey cells working overtime.
Love your project, the vintage theme is great.
Really lovely card - and I love that you made jam and decided to decorate the jars too - gorgeous!
