When life throws you lemons....card

I recently made this card with a Sizzix die cut I purchased on mark down at Hobby Lobby.  It comes with a center piece to create 3-D jars. It also comes with a different shaped jar.  But I still was not satisfied after I saw the smaller die but with the embossing folder I had to have it too!  Here is a card that I made with that set.  So I started this card waaaayyy before I made that one, but I never quite got all the elements together.  I finally just pieced a few together to send some friends having some hard times.  I thought the lemonade was cheery!


I am not sure if you can tell but I cut a piece of acetate as well to layer on top to be the "glass".  It gives it a great effect.


As you can see I fussy cut one sentiment and left one on a rectangle.  Which do you like better?

Ingredients:
Sizzix Bigz jar die 
W R Farmer's Market Mason Jar paper (and reverse)
American Craft sheer ribbon
Recollections gems
Judikins lemon twinkle embossing powder
Stampin Up water color pencils
white card stock
acetate
DCWV silver metallic paper for lid
