Conserve to Preserve

I recently picked-up this cool Canning Jar Die Cut & Embossing Folder, and wanted to give it a try for the Canning Jar Recipe Swap at Catered Crop.  I die cut my jar from blue cardstock and then again from silver shimmer paper for the lid and clasp.

As I was thinking about how to fill my jar, I had a flashback to sitting at our dining room table when I was in the 6th Grade … intensely drawing my entry for the Missouri Conservation Association Poster Contest … I remember drawing a poster-sized canning jar with all sorts of farming and conservation elements inside … with the title We Must Conserve to Preserve (no I wasn't a winner, but I did get to go to award ceremony and enjoy a big bowl of ham & beans … oh the things I remember).

So I decided to use some fun Reminisce Dimensional Stickers to fill my jar with Iowa farmland images.  I also added some coordinating Washi Tape across the top for the Moxie Fab World Stickers & Tape Challenge.  The layout is this week's Unscripted Sketch.
