Cock a Doodle Doo, Happy Birthday to You


Thought I would share a VERY quick TAG project that I threw together in a matter of a few minutes.

Because I LOVE to clean (honest), I enjoy using "GOURMET" Cleaning products, some of which are from Williams Sonoma. As I was making my purchase the other day, I decided to grab a bottle of the Grapefruit Counter Spray for my little sister. The idea of just handing her a bottle of cleaner seemed kind of cheesy so I added a couple dish towels, washcloths and a cute little basket. Here is a photo of her gift:
She and her family came down from Atlanta so that she, my husband, and I could celebrate our birthday's together. Our birthday's are all within 5 days of one another. We had so much fun combining our parties, just like when we were little.

CHALLENGES I USED:
Ohh La La Creations: Stripes
Paper Romance: Clean & Simple
Fresh Brewed: Brown (I stamped in brown)
Some Odd Girl: 3 or more images (rooster, postmark, swirls, script in the background-I used 4!)
