Bath Salts Gift Tube

One more test tube gift! This one is for a class I am teaching tomorrow night for a few friends...if they are seeing this they are getting a preview! I used a tutorial for a test tube holder I found on Lisa Somerville's blog. She has several versions, but I used the single test tube one. I used the new SU! Raspberry Tart DSP, joined with Orchid Opulence and Pretty in Pink cardstock. The SU! Love you Much stamp set helped me finish both the holder and the matching card.

The bath salts are a simple mixture of Epson salts and a little Lavender scent.

I paper pieced the little birds with some leftover DSP scraps. I think this paper is growing on me!

Also..thanks again to Ashley for my new signature and Favicon!!!
