ill show you my card first

                                        i used walk in my garden for all of the cuts. 

                                                  i just love this little caterpillar :)

i used foam stickies under some of the leaves. i inked it all up with colorbox fluid chalk.
the b/g paper is dcwv.

                            and of course it aint a  done card til i add a cheesy saying ;) 
                                                          yeah i know...groan.....

                                                       now for my altered jar

 this was a real pain to photo, sorry. its really prettier in person. i used a real candle for the post but so it can actually be used i added a flameless tealight candle.

                                              can ya see the little bit of that tealight "flame"

                                               heres the flowers and leaves i added on top
i used accent essentials for these.i cut the image 3 times in increments then just moistened the shape then scrunched them up. i added spun sugar distress stickles and colorbox fluid chalk to them. i also added a bow using crinkle ribbon.

                i added paper doilys to the top and front using tea dye distress ink. pearls and some twine.

                               inside i added some tulle and ms punched butterflies. and some crimped paper.
