Treasure Life

Today's card uses the Treasure Life set from Taylored Expressions along with papers and embellishments from my latest Key Ingredients Subscription!  The paper is from the Kitch Collection by Girl's Paperie.  This card is also a different look from my norm.  I like it, though.  It's still not heavily embellished, but it has more layers than I would normally use.  :) 

I stamped the apothecary jars onto patterned paper and plain white cardstock.  I die cut the patterned paper jars using the Apothecary Jars Die set.  Then I cut the lids out of the white cardstock and paper pieced them onto the patterned paper jars.  I mounted the jars onto a piece die cut with the From the Heart Frame Die.  I sponged that piece and the other pieces of patterned paper to give it an aged looked.  Finally, I added some stitching and the pearls. 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!  SUPPLIES USED:  Stamps- Treasure Life (Taylored Expressions); Ink- Tuxedo Black (Tsukineko), Summer Sunrise (PTI), Blue Bayou (SU); Paper- Kitch Collection (Girl's Paperie), Bazzill;  Accessories- pearls from Key Ingredients Kit (TE), From the Heart Frame Die, Apothecary Jar Dies (Taylored Expressions);  Finished card measures 5.5"x4.25"
