2014 Memories Jar

Hello Everyone!  Just thought I would pop on to show you a quick project I made to start the new year off!  This was an idea I had seen on Pinterest, but fancied it up quite a bit because I wanted it to be gift worthy!  Sorry, it's not my best picture skills, but I forgot to take a pic before I left home.
So, the jar is just a quart canning jar, I used a die to cut a piece of pattern paper for the lid, and then used SU! Banner dies to cut my Rich Razzleberry and Pool Party papers, and also added a little splash of color with some retired SU patterned paper.  I printed the "instructions" on the Pool Party and then die cut it with the die.  This is the what it says:
Starting January 1st, write
 good things that happen to
 you on little pieces of paper:
µ  Surprise Gifts
µ  Accomplished goals
µ  The beauty of nature
µ  “LOL” moments
µ  Memories worth saving
µ  Daily blessings
On December 31st, open the jar
 and read all of the amazing
 things that happened to you in 2014!
