Baby Jars and a Card

                   

Hi Everyone!  I hope you had a great weekend.  I didn't get to stamp but my sister was here visiting (from Edmonton) as she had her sister in laws baby shower to attend.  We altered these little baby food jars for the guests.  Inside the jars are peppermint scented Epsom salts.  I got this idea from my good friend (....Hi Steph!) and have made them for 3 different baby showers.

The material is cut to 4.5 x 4.5 square and held on with white hair tie elastics which the ribbon covers up.  I didn't attend the shower but I sent a gift and realized I didn't have a card (what is that all about?!?!? lol.  Does that happen to you too?).  So as we were finished the jars I had a bunch of scrap material all over that table and wanted to see if I could make a card using the fabric.  I quite like how it turned out.  Don't you just love that bright retro looking fabric?  I am going to try to cover a bulletin board with it or frame a piece for my craft space.  Speaking of craft space....the paint is done and it is gorgeous!  I love the color so much.  However the storage is still to be figured out and could be a couple of months.  I did attend Home Depot and that is definitely an option but I am going to discuss custom building the work space and cabinets with my carpenter first and decide what works best for me.  I will keep you posted and one of these days I will upload before and after pics.  For all you Papertrey fans....see you tomorrow night at the release party!!  Unfortunately I did not find the time to create anything to submit to GSS but I can't wait to get my hands on the new yellows.  Love those!
