Whale You Be Mine, Valentine??

Today's share was inspired by my fabulous upline Patty Bennett.  She sent me the cutest little treat over the summer.  It's a great way to use up old containers from buttons and brads.  This is my Valentine version.


I used Oh, Whale! (again...just love this set) and the Sycamore Street DSP.  It is the pattern with the Pool Party swirls.  I die cut the whale in Pink Pirouette and punched out clouds using the cupcake punch.  The greeting is die cut with the Bitty Banners Framelits.  Here is a close up for a better look.


I really love the soft look of the Pool Party combined with Pink Pirouette...I think I'll be using this combo again!

I put pink and white M&M's in the container, here are back and side views.

And here is the inspiration for it all, the project that Patty Bennett made.

I hope you enjoyed today's project.  I have another Oh, Whale! card to share tomorrow and then I have some other Sale-a-bration cards to post for the rest of the week.

Thanks for visiting!

If it doesn't move..stamp it!!

I love the soft color combination! Wouldn't this be a sweet party favor for a baby shower using the 'Whalecome' stamp and the 'baby' part of the Welcome Baby stamp in the Petite Pairs stamp set? I also wonder how you got the stick on the container.

Sue..I LOVE your idea for the baby shower favor! Too cute..I may just have to make one to post! I punched a hole in the container with the crop-a-dile then hot glued a lollipop stick in the hole. Easy-peasy!
