Etchall Wedding Jar

Hi everyone, as we head into the wedding season, I've created a wedding jar using  EtchallⓇ.


Etchall allows you to add "tooth" to glass items so paint will adhere easily.


Place the jar in a container and pour in etchallⓇ dip 'n etch liquid.


Allow to sit 15 minutes then remove and replace the liquid back in it's original container.
If you don't have enough liquid to completely cover the jar, place the lid on the jar and turn it upside down in the dip 'n etch and leave it for another 15 minutes.
Don't you love the frosted appearance?
Then return the liquid to its original container.


Going with the wedding colors, I painted the jar green, then placed a layer of silver on top.


Wrap burlap ribbon around the jar.


Stamp a phrase and die cut.
Add to a larger die and adhere to the top

Thanks for stopping by.

Using assorted papers, decorate each panel.

Scor-Pal - Friendship Gift Card with Surprise

 Hi everyone, it's a new month and the challenge on the Scor-Pal blog is to create anything you want, just be sure it includes more than one score.


I've created a card with a concealed gift bag inside!


Start by cutting cardstock 4" x 10 1/2".
Place the longer length across the top and score as follows:
1/2", 1", 5, 5 1/2", 6", 10"
Rotate and score at 1/2", 3 1/4"


Fold along the score line.
Trim as shown.


Punch holes for the ribbon handles at the 3/4" edge.
Use Scor-tape to hold the ribbon and fold the flaps.
Add Scor-tape to the bottom edges.
Add Scor-tape to the side and fold the bag.


Open the card and place the edge of one side against the fold.
Remove the Scor-tape and fold the card so the bag adheres to one side.
Flip over the card, remove the Scor-tape and fold the card again.


Decorate the exterior of the card with papers from Graphic 45.
Cut a smaller panel, adhere it to cardstock, then wrap with ribbon.
Adhere to the card.


Stamp Fairy Hugs Possible on a white panel and mat with cardstock.
Adhere to the base.
Add rhinestone swirls about the card.


Stamp Fairy Hugs Grateful Heart on a panel of white, mat with cardstock and add to the front of the card, holding the ribbon in place.
Finish by adding more rhinestone swirls to the front of the card.
