Hello everyone: I was doing some sprucing up in my craft room over the weekend and I came across this pretty die from Elizabeth Craft called "Ginger Jar", unfortunately, it's sold out but not discontinued so I hope they bring it back, it's really beautiful and you can really do all kinds of combinations with the pieces of this flower and curvy lines.
I die cut the jar out of gold foil paper and glued it to a piece of watercolor paper, after it dried completely, I colored it with Sakura Koi watercolors. I left it to dry again and then I filled each section with Glossy Accents to give it that stain glass look. The branches are die cut with a Memory Box die called "Grove Branch", the little flowers are from an Altenew set called Moments in Time, this little flower was so hard to stamp, I don't have a block that small so I grabbed my glue pen and put a mini glue dot on the lid and then, I attached the flower stamp, it worked really well. The sentiment is from a SU set called "By The Bay".

Here's a close up of the jar so hopefully, you can see the wells filled up with the Glossy Accents.

This is how the INSIDE of my card looks like.
The border is stamped with a retired SU set called "Delicate Details", the sentiment is from an Altenew set called Recollections and the little branch from the Moments in Time set.
I'm playing along with the following challenges.
My choice was die cutting.
Challenge #172 "SPRING"
This is the Ginger Jar die set I used, I looked for it but I think it's discontinued, so sad, it's really beautiful.
Thank you for stopping by, your comments always make my day.
