Toast & Strawberry Pres Bday Card

Created this Toast & Strawberry Preserves Birthday Card using a Sizzix die that I've had for a long time; as in before Cricut days. I'm fond of Smuckers strawberry preserves more than jam or jelly.

Used core'dinations red cardstock for base of card. Used DCWV Nana's Kitchen matstack for layers & sentiment tag.

Inked the Toast with Tim Holtz inks to make it look toasted more & have strawberry preserves on it. Used vellum for preserve jar & core'dinations red cardstock for inside of jar;
as in the strawberry preserves. Also, inked the vellum to look more like strawberry preserves. Stamped Joy's Life sentiment. Used Stampin' Up punches to cut out sentiment & for sentiment tag. Added ribbon.
