Grinch-y Mini Jam Jars

The Grinch is my favorite Christmas movie of all time. Naturally when I found these Hershey's Grinch Kisses, I was inspired to make some type of stamping connection!

These are the Mini Jam Jars from Stampin Up! (155685) and they come in a pack of six! I simply layered all various shapes of cardstock as indicated below and filled these little jars up with treats for family, friends, and neighbors!


Dies: Layering Circles, Give it a Whirl (for the three sizes of the heart on the grinch lid), Tasteful Labels (for Max's puppy ears)

Cardstock: Mango Melody, Real red, Granny Apple Green, Soft Suede, Early Espresso, Basic White, Basic Black

Markers/Ink: Basic Black Marker, Memento Black

Extras: Jam Jars, Pipe Cleaners (from any craft store for Max's Antler), Black Twine from the Baker's Twine Essential (155475), Dimensionals, Glue Dots, and OF COURSE, Grinch Hershey's Kisses!

 CASE-ing is an acronym used by Stampin' Up! and means Copy And Share Everything!  This is a way to get inspiration for your designs. You basically catalog/internet search designs for a color, stamp set, paper, etc. and then 'copy' the card--although you can definitely make it your own in the process!  This is a really great way to get your creativity flowing and get inspiration!
