Teenage Girlie Girl Valentine

 How's this for a Teen Valentine idea?  When my daughter was in middle and high school she always wanted to give a handful of her girlfriends gifts for the various holidays.  There were always too many for us to afford going out and buying an individual gift for so we always came up with some kind of goodie to make.  One year for Christmas we got a bunch of cute mugs and filled it with some hot cocoa powder, marshmallows, etc. then we went out in the wee hours of the night and delivered them to their doorsteps for them to find in the morning.  We had such a great time!  Victoria has always loved getting all girlied-out, make-up done, manicures, etc. and she loved Nail Polish (she still does).  So I made this little carrier to hold 2 bottles of OPI Nail Polish. IMG_7357  

 Here's a sideview and you can see the Polish Bottles peeking out the side.  I love these images from Mo Manning (available at Paper Garden Projects).  Have you seen the GORGEOUS digi images that Cathy at PGP has come up with?  They are too fun!!  Ok, back to this little morsle… I grabbed my Hearts Bloom paper kit (which is ON SALE NOW!) from Paper Garden Projects and took it with me this weekend so I could finish up some Valentine projects.  Now keep in mind that I was horribly sick when I left town and had been getting sicker each day!  I tried hard to grab everything I may need without talking the whole studio… You would not believe the things I forgot, ADHESIVE!!!  SCISSORS!!  Can you imagine?!?!?  It's a good thing that I had this image already stamped because I realized that I also forgot to bring white cardstock (which is only topped by the fact that when I got home I realized that I also forgot the stamps!!!)  Clearly I should NOT be allowed to pack when sick! lol  So my box is held together with glue stick and the image is adhered with scotch tape rolled up, lol.  Hey man, whatever works!  My father-in-law was trying to convince me to use honey, hehehe!  Silly boys!  Tomorrow I'll have another Teen-girlie Valentine idea…  Hope to see you tomorrow!

Stamp: Psst! Danni & Taylor (Mo Manning available at Paper Garden Projects) all other supplies are from the Hearts Bloom Paper Kit (Paper garden Projects).
