Summer Goodie Idea

Need a little party favor this summer?  I used these beach pails, found at the Dollar Tree for $1, to serve as some table goodies for a team training held this past Saturday.  They served dual purpose as a trash can!  Of course, it was not complete until a handmade tag was attached.

I used this stamp set to make the tag, stamping the top portion of the chevron tag in Lagoon and the bottom, in Canary.  The "You're Pretty Awesome" sentiment was stamped in Smoothie but check out the other cool sentiments you have to choose from...

This stamp set is only available to Hostesses but I will draw for one of these darlings!  All you have to do is make a comment below AND either follow me on Facebook or sign-up to receive my blog posts directly to your inbox (include, in your comment, where you chose to follow me so I can verify you did join me).  I will do the drawing on Saturday, April 25th, at 12 noon - when I will stop collecting names.
