I chose the savory Strawberries Set.. This summer my daughter and I have
been trying new jam recipes.. This is our favorite. I created a little pocket
for my recipe to slip into.. This way I can write a message on the inside of the
card and my daughter can still have the recipe and a beautiful card.
Here is the recipe pulled out of the pocket.
I colored this with Prisma Pencils.. I added
a strawberry ceramic button and some May
Arts fiber and gingham ribbon.
The very last thing we did was decorate the tops of your jars. I used a
piece of fabric and stamped with stazon in the middle of my fabric
piece. Then I colored VERY CAREFULLY with my copics collections
from Flourishes I used: Gerber Daisey Collection
and the Fuschia Collection.
Don't saturate the fabric too much or it will bleed. I was even able to blend two
colors on the peaches.
I used the Cherries and Peaches set for the peach jam and the Strawberry set for
the strawberry jam.. This is going to be our Christmas gifts for this year.

This is fabulous Dawn. I love the recipe holding card, the recipe card itself and the decorated lids on the jams! Great job!
ReplyDeleteOMG , gorgeous idea. And your strawberry pie must be delicious like your card :)
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of decorating the jars.
Dawn this is gorgeous.. I love these strawberry's and the design of this card.
ReplyDeleteYum Yum. I prefer raspberries to strawberries, to be honest, especially in jam, but this sounds good - not too much sugar to fruit. And I love your card :D.
ReplyDeleteAwesome pull-out recipe...love all the corner details and the ribbon tab treatment!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous post Dawn. I love the idea of the recipe pulling out at the side like that. Love all the corner details too....and that strawberry button....cute, cute! Love the fabric on the mason jars....I hope I am on the Christmas list this year. Do you have the peach jam recipe? I would love to try it out.
ReplyDeleteWOW! This is one fabulicious look and recipe card design, Dawn! Deliciously done, girl!

I just LOVE that you've created a pocket for this gorgeous recipe card Dawn. What a wonderful keepsake...and so neat to hear about all the cooking you've been doing with your girl too! Beautiful coloring on the canning toppers too!
ReplyDeleteHow darling is this!!!! I just love the pocket card and the way you decked out the top of the jam jars!! Way cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful project. I love homemade strawberry jam. It makes me think of the year I lived in Greenbay WI, and my neighbor and I took our girls strawberry picking and then we made jam with them.
ReplyDeleteFantastic project, Dawn! I love the recipe card, and the scalloped pocket in the corner reminds me of the little pot covers my Mum used to use when she made jam! Mmmm, I really fancy a slice of bread and jam now with a cup of tea...
ReplyDeleteWhat a brilliant idea for your jam recipe, I love the look of those strawberries. We've started growing strawberries, but not enough for jam (to be truthful so far we only have 2 ripe strawberries lol) x
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this is gorgeous! Thanks for sharing the recipe and a fun way to display them. The jams look delish.
ReplyDeleteThis is FANTASTIC! Love the pull out card recipe! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous idea to make a card with a recipe card included. I'm sure the recipient will be thrilled twice as much.
ReplyDeleteDawn, girl, this is an amazing recpe card you've created here!!! LOVE it!!! I also love this super easy recipe!!! I was just hinking about some yummy Erdbeer Marmelade (strawberry jam) when I went to the grocery store yesterday.....they had strawberries for $.88 a container......I think I need to go back and get some ;D;D. Thanks for sharing your recipe and this wonderful card!! Hugs, Sabrina
ReplyDeleteNot only are you inspiring me with these beautiful projects, but also to try to be more proactive in finding things to do with my older daughters...they aren't ususally ones to craft, but maybe canning? Ya never know...but either way these are great homespun projects that exude country charm...love them both!!
ReplyDeleteYour projects are beautiful! I've never seen Copics used on fabric before, and it looks amazing! Thanks for the inspiration :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful project Dawn! Love everything about it!
ReplyDeleteWow! This is just gorgeous!!
