ABC Friday!…
Last Friday was part of my week of Anything But A Card {ABC}, so I guess I can call this one the first official ABC Friday. YAY!! Earlier this week I ran over to Hobby Lobby to pick up a replacement ink pad and happened to wander into their plastic container dept. I love containers. Big, small, round, square…you name it. I found these cute little plastic containers for 67 CENTS!! A container, something that I can alter and fill AND under a buck. My heart was all a flutter!! So I picked up a few and came home and got to work. I have about a gazillion ideas in my head for these, but this is the first one that made it to production. BTW-This bottle holds almost a whole bag of Red Hots!! The sentiment is from PaperTrey and is on a small scallop oval {the yellow Marvy one} punch. The puffy felt heart is also from Hobby Lobby. I picked those up a while ago when the Valentine’s stuff first started to arrive. The bottle top is exactly 1 inch, so a one inch punched circle fit perfectly.
See you here tomorrow for another Sketch For You To Try and the announcement of February’s Guest Designer, who will be playing along on each of Feb.’s sketches. YAY!!
***Also, if you are interested in being a Verve Guest Designer, be sure to see the post from yesterday!!!***

Jen this is adorable! I don’t know if they are still available anywhere, but during Christmas Coca-Cola had 12 oz sodas in these exact round bottles for $1 at Wal-Mart!

Oh Jen…this is sooooo cute. I love things that are inexpensive, cute and easy to make. My little one drinks these little drinks called -chubs. The bottle looks like yours. I will start using those.
thanks for the ABC…..
