A card for today's Featured Stamper Challenge, it's Ellie Stover - what a lovely gallery and HERE is the beautiful card which inspired me. I kept the same layout except moved the main image to the corner to keep a lot of white space. I popped up the image in different layers to add a lot of dimension - the jar has been curved to give a rounded look though it's not evident in the photo, and been sponged rather than coloured. I added some dry embossing to the bg, using a folder which mimics the pattern in the dp. I changed the tag shape and dyed some twine to match the dp with copic ink.

This card makes me happy to just look at it. Your color choices ROCK on this beauty and your jar of flowers look freshly picked. I see the dimension you created with rounding your jar and popping your blossoms...just amazing! A fav for sure...
