Friday night was Cindy's workshop and she had it here in my Stampin' Studio. She showed up at my door with the most beautiful Fruit Pizza (forgot to take a picture of it!!) I have ever seen and a lovely bunch of flowers for me. She is so sweet!!
I had to confess that I did not have a vase and she mentioned using a Mason Jar. I thought surely I had a Mason Jar and went to look. All I could find was an emply pickle jar that I have saved for the kids in case we find a really cool bug, frog, turtle, etc. I grabbed the pickle jar and added the flowers. It just didn't look right, a beautiful bouquet of flowers in a pickle jar with a label on it. I had about 5 minutes before the rest of the guests arrived so I scurried around in my studio and this is what I came up with. I used a piece of Designer Series Paper from the Flock Together pack, the Beautiful Butterflies Big Shot Die, the Square Lattice Impressions Folder and a button from the Button Latte set. The wrap slips on and off so I can change it. I was literally done in under 5 minutes. I am thrilled with it!! Now I have a "vase" and I can customize it to my liking!!

Awesome!! When I first saw it, I was ultra impressed, and then when I read your story, it sounded more like your style with the pickle jar and frogs and bugs….and I am still ultra impressed!

Hi Barb … I am so happy when I see people re-purpose items … I do that a lot and people at work give me “weird” things to see what I’ll do. This is just great and looks better than a purchased vase! Thans for sharing that! Karen
