Laughter and lip gloss...

Just a short post for today as the girls and I have some Berry Patch dolls and accessories to set up. We're having a tea party for all of Jordan's lambs...she collects them and just got a new Webkinz Lamb.

We're meeting up with some friends tomorrow to go roller skating at the skating rink so I thought some little gifts would be fun to take along. Remember my stash of lip glosses that I purchased on sale after Christmas? I put them to good use by making some little lip gloss goodies.
I used Papertrey's Love Songs to stamp the lips in a puckery Berry Sorbet..cut them out and backed with a pop dot so they'd stand out. Then I reached for the awesome sentiment set called Heartfelt Basics....stamped the main sentiment in True Black ink and then stamped *laughter* and *lip gloss* in Berry Sorbet ink. The *lip gloss* sentiment was hand stamped with a dollar bin alphabet from my local scrapbook store. I then cut out a white rectangle and Berry Sorbet scalloped rectangle using my Spellbinders Nestabilities Die Templates. You can also find them HERE at Papertrey. I adhered my tube of lip gloss to my rectangle with a strip of Scor-Tape, it's sticky enough that my lip gloss tube will stay put.
These would also make great little gifts for slumber parties, girl's night out, teacher gifts....or turn it into a guy gift for your sweetie by changing up the colors, adding in a more masculine Chap Stick tube and a *Pucker Up* sentiment.

Oh my gosh, what a great idea! I love love if somebody gave me something like this. I may have to try it myself. I do a lot of cupcake swaps and this would be perfect. Nice work.
