Several Years ago I created this fun little Christmas card with the Jar of Love stamp set and matching Everyday Jars dies. At the time, there was a coordinating stamp set with things for Christmas that fit in the jars, such as this cute snowman. Since making that post I continue to get questions about it, mostly asking where to get the snowman. I get notifications from Early November to late December about people saving this pin or watching the video. Unfortunately the snowman was discontinued. Such a bummer.
But, since I still got so many questions and likes and saves on places
like Pinterest and YouTube, I felt I should look into an alternative.
So, the following year I made this little guy. Not quite the same snowman but still super cute. He is in a set called Seasonal Chums which is in the Annual Catalog, as are the Jar of Love stamps and Everyday Jars dies.
The Seasonal Chums stamps are super fun because the snowman has both a front and back stamp, so you can even make the jar clear on both sides and show all around the snowman if you wanted to.
Here are some older videos showing these products. The stamps and dies are really fun, and I hope you will check them out.
Hi everyone! Today I am sharing a redo of a card from last year. This original card gets a lot of views on Pinterest and YouTube, and I get a bit of email about where to find the cute snowman featured in the card. Unfortunately the snowman was discontinued. Bummer! But I found another snowman that is super cute as well, so I remade the card using new paper and stamps so that it can still be copied by those looking to make it.
Here is last years card.
And here is this years card. I am now realizing that I didn't stamp the jar outline onto the Window sheet,but you can still do that. Just be sure to use Stazon ink when stamping onto the acetate sheet.
I made a new video how to:

A Week or so back I showed you a lot of projects using mason jars and I wanted to be sure to show you that if you purchased the mason jar set "Jar of Love" you are going to be happy to see more things to use with your jars for the upcoming Halloween and Christmas seasons. I loved these spooky eyes and used them first. I watercolored with Old Olive ink to make monsterish jar of spookiness. The Web is from the new Ghoulish Grunge set, another must have.
The Labeler Alphabet stamp set allows you to spell out anything you want to make the cards your way!
*******EDITED TO ADD UPDATED PRODUCTS FOR 2017**********
Since this original video came out I get a lot of people asking about
the Stamp set that has since discontinued. I redid the card with new
products for 2017 for those trying to recreate it. You can see the
projects on this blog post, and check out the new video here.
Christmas is my favorite card making season and Mason jars are perfect for Christmas! Think of all the things you can give in a cute jar with a sweet bow tied on top! And there are many crafts to make with mason jars as well! Check out this cute shaker card with a little snowman inside! Love it! and the mica flakes (new in the Holiday Catalog) are perfect for this seasonal shaker!
The dies that cut out the Halloween stamp set 'Jar of haunts' and the Christmas stamp set 'Jar of Cheer' both use the same dies that cut out the non-holiday set 'Jar of Love'! I love that Stampin' Up! released more stamps to work with the dies that I already have!! If you passed on the jars in the main catalog, you may want to add them to your list! So many possibilities with this group of products! Check out this how to video for the Snowman Snow Globe Shaker card!
