Simon Says Stamp: Mason Jar Homegrown Summer

I have a black thumb. I can kill a plant faster than Ortho. 
A paper plant? This might be the answer to everything! 
This week, the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge is Homegrown Summer. My ancestors were all farmers from the Mid-West, so I really appreciate everything that's grown and Summer is the perfect time to express that. My paper terrarium has Distress Glitter dirt. That's my kind of dirt! (Sorry, Grandma!)
I've been using paint more and more and I'm discovering that I really like using it, There's a learning curve, but I'll get it eventually. My skills will grow, too.

 Link your Homegrown Summer project to the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog. Your project could win a $50 gift voucher to Simon Says Stamp. We draw a new winner each week. Your project could also be chosen to be featured in our weekly designer spotlight.
