SOOOOOOO full of Joy...in a Jar!!!

Hi everyone!! Happy Sunday!!!

Here is my card for today's Featured Stamper Challenge on SCS, FS109, which honors Judy aka StampingQueenJar!!! I am a HUGE fan of Judy's and am SUPER excited that she is today's FS!!!!

She has SOOOOOOOOO many fabulous cards, and I could sit and case each and every one, but for tonight, I chose to case her Sending You Love card, which she created as an ATC!

I made mine bigger than an ATC (grin!), and my card is actually 4 1/2 Square. I kept her FABULOUS layout with the cut off circle nesties, but changed the following:

1. Colors and DSP
2. Used Different Stamps
3. Omitted the corner piercing (shocking right??)
4. Added a thin center panel
5. Added Brads

For my card, I stamped this ADORABLE little Easter Basket from the Sweet Spring Set that was just released by Taylored Expressions in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Choice White Cardstock (the ultimate in white paper to use with your Copics, in my opinion!!). I colored my image with Copic Markers, and then framed it with Circle Nestabilities.

The DSP is Regal Rose (my all time favorite color) from Patterns Pack II, and the white brads are from American Crafts!! (Jacks...if you are reading this...I got you some and they are going postal on Monday!!).

I added just a touch of piercing, and stamped my sentiment, also from Sweet Spring, directly onto my DSP!

Thanks SO much for looking!!
