Boxes, Bags and Bows {Clear and Simple Stamps}

Hello there!! It's group post day with Clear and Simple Stamps, and this week's challenge was to create a trio of goodies, packaged up using any of CSS' Favor Boxes or clear packaging offerings.

I chose to work with the By the Glass set and new matching dies along with the 3" flat bottom candy bags. Whenever I hear of someone drinking a Mojito, I giggle on the inside... I immediately think of feet... and with that in mind, comes today's project - A pedicure kit. Moji-TOES. *wink*

Inside of each Flat Bottom Candy Bag, I put a bottle of nail polish, some toe spacers, a nail file, and orange stick, some nail clippers and finally, a few packets of Crystal Light Mojito drink mix. What's more fun than sipping an ice-cold beverage while getting a pedi?!

I used the insert portion of the Tri-Fold 2 die as a tag. I made patterned paper using images the Taglines: By the Glass and the original Taglines set, a snipet of the small Eyelet border, then I diecut and stamped the tall glass image from By the Glass, adding some icecubes and lime slices to each glass. I fussy cut the straws and added some diamond Stickles for some sparkle, then adhered each to their tag using foam squares. The sentiment on each tag was stamped using the Alpha Duo stamp set. Then I attached the tag with some Sterling Silver Cord.

I love the versatility in these sets... They are perfect for alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage gifts... perfect for a fun summer card, or for anything else you might be able to think up! I am excited to give these little gifts away... I had so much fun making them!
