Decorative Jar Gift Set


Here is my Decorative Jar Gift Set Project! This is a great way to decorate your homemade jam and jelly jars to give as gifts. You can make this set and give it to someone who makes their own jam too.
The box will also fit 4-1/4” x 5-1/2” cards and envelopes so you can store a set of cards to give as a present! Easily change up the colors and fabric to give it any look you want for any type of jam or occasion. You can also fill the canning jars with anything else, like candy or a baking mix, and decorate the tops to match!

Airplane Punch Art Card - FREE Tutorial



As promised I made another card with my little punch art airplane and took better photos so I could show you how I did it! I also used the Word Play stamp set for the sentiment and the cupcake punch for the clouds. I'm not so fond of the rest of this card but I love the airplanes!
Below is my Clothesline Thank You Card that I did before with my little airplane.
And here is how I made the airplane:
I used the large oval punch with Cajun Craze cardstock and trimmed the sides like shown for the body of the airplane.
Then I punched a Word Window shape and cut it in half at an angle. I slightly rounded the end of the front wing piece to look like the wing at an angle. Glue one if front and one in back at the same angle.

Punch another word window and cut a smaller shape from one half. This will be the tail of the plane. Glue it at the same angle as the wings.

Then I cut a tiny shape from the other side and it was the little tail fin thingy... (not sure of the names for these parts!) That goes right on the end.

Then punch a Black Word Window and put it back in the punch to trim it about in half. I cut the propeller out of this. Just angle in from the ends and then cut the little circle in the middle. You could also cut two teardrop shapes and a circle and put it together that way. The end of the word window is the little cockpit area.

And here is the finished little airplane! I added some marker to the bottom and edges to give it some depth.
Hope you have fun with him!
