It doesn’t take many steps past February to begin to ache for the stirrings of spring. Blooming flowers are the earliest sign and we have something to get you started. Today I’m introducing the Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month for March 2021, Mini 3D Vignette Floral Mason Jar.
Becca Feeken of Amazing Paper Grace sent me these lovely dies to create with.Imagine kicking rocks as you walk down a sweet rural road, on one of the first days the weather hints that the seasons are starting to change. You pick wildflowers and rush home to put them into a jar of water to keep them perky for the days to come. This is the inspiration that struck Becca when she put together the flower and mason jar combination. It’s so cute and sweet!!
This easy to assemble mason jar can contain anything, but today it holds layered flowers. This flat side look is just like a real bouquet. Glue them or layer them with foam tape to make a dramatic statement. The mason jar can be left solid or cut like a frame for a shaker card the stems are simply threaded through each lid to secure them for arrangement. If you’re partial to flat cards, use the filigree band with two brads to hold your stems! This makes a lovely card front bouquet, complete with stems.
There are 16 dies included in the Mini 3D Vignette Floral Mason Jar
My Project Today using Mini 3D Vignette Floral Mason Jar
I have made a 3D vignette card and a card with a shaker element to the jar. The flowers have been made using 160 LB flower shaping paper which enabled me to shape the flowers and leaves easily and also made the flowers very light for the 3D vignette card as well as the shaker card. The shaker elements are clear sequins and dew drops to give the effect of water in the jar.
Designer Tip:
Use heavy cardstock to make the 3D vignette card as it makes it more robust for holding the flowers.
Supplies:
Stamps: I have used a old stamp from a magazine.
Paper: DMC Flower Shaping Paper, Neenah Solar Crest Cardstock
Ink: Ranger Archival ink – Magenta Hue, Violet, Library Green, Versamagic – Pretty Petunia, Distress Oxide ink – Mowed Grass
Accessories: Amazing Paper Grace March 2021 Die of the Month – Mini 3D Vignette Floral Mason Jar, Amazing Paper Grace Scallop Façade Frame Etched Dies from Make a Scene Collection by Becca Feeken

Wow, Patricia, you and APG were made for each other! Your love for flowers is so evident in the care & detail you bring to them. Absolutely stunning!
Thank you so much for all your lovely words. I really love working with Amazing Paper Grace. xxx
Beautiful Patricia. Love your flowers.
Thank you Ann xx
Thank you so much Ann xxx
Patricia, your projects are marvelous! I love the colors you chose for the dimensional florals, and that card deserves a shadowbox on the wall! My addiction is place setting decor—I would love to have company (someday) and place a mason jar bouquet by each plate. It would be so pretty!
Aww thank you so much Christine. I am so pleased that I have inspired you xxx
I never get tired of seeing your work. What do you use to make your flowers sparkle?
Thank you Linda – I add some very fine crystal glitter with clear gloss gel medium on all my flowers.
That’s quite a die set! I wonder if you could actually put a small jar inside and put in a couple of real flowers?

I guess you could do that Evelyn. One day when I have some time I might try it …
