Friendship Jar

I know that I was not the only kid on the planet who would go crazy for some art supplies as a gift.  Everyone should dabble with paint at some point...and why not get into it as an adult?  I have an aunt in her 70's who just discovered how well she can paint...how cute is that?  It's a fairly inexpensive hobby and it's oh' so fulfilling...at least I think so :) My set includes canvas paper, paint brushes, some paint and watercolor pencils, a paint tray and a cute bird house to paint!

I stamped the flowers with fresh snow ink and colored them with colored pencils.

Isn't this mini paint can absolutely darling???

and of course, a card that compliments this set perfectly.

Stamps: Friendship Jar, Friendship Jar Fillers
Ink: Fresh Snow
Paper: Kraft
Other: Scalloped die cut, label die cut, Mini Paint Can, orange zest, raspberry fizz, new leaf and Hawaiian shores ribbon

I hope that you will take some time to devour all of the designs by the Papertrey Team...feast your eyes:

• *Nichole Heady
• Betsy Veldman
