Jar of Sunshine - PPA Sketch Challenge 141

This is my entry in the Pals Paper Arts Sketch Challenge - PPA 141.









I think the Perfectly Preserved stamp set is so versatile and fun!  Sunbeam motifs are very trendy, so I decided to fill my jar with a little bit of sunshine!

• I used my sewing machine set at a 3.0 stitch length around the card edge and also for the edge of the 3rd layer - which I also reverse stitched and then went forward again to make an uneven zig zag for a rustic look.
• The sun is punched out with the boho blossom punch
•  the sun beams I made by stamping the jar image on daffodil delight dsp and then cutting it into diagonal beams.  
• I removed every other one and then they all fit nice and neatly inside the jar
• The two middle sentiments are both stamped in More Mustard - the second is a "shadow" stamp, meaning I inked up my stamp, stamped the first and then stamped the second without re-inking (for a lighter color).
•  I used my paper snips to trim out the jar and lid - but the coordinating framelits for this stamp set would make this job much easier
