Very first Friday of 2013!

Hey friends!  It's Friday.  First Friday of New Year 2013!  And this is the Three Wise Men's weekend. We celebrate the Three Kings Day on January 6th.  So, it's still Holidays in Puerto Rico... until mid January with a party in San Juan called "Fiestas de la calle San Sebastián".   No wonder we are called the happiest country in the World!  LOL!

For the Unity FWF I want to share this with you.

First of all... I bought these face creams in Costco, and the packaging feature a plastic shape of the product.  One of them is like a bottle of wine.  Since I've been buying this product I've storage some of these for future projects.  I finally made something with one of them.


I cut the same shape in a glitter paper...


And glued the plastic behind...


I stamped in cardstock in a way it can be seen through the bottle shape.  Since this was for a friend's birthday, I also added some details with her name and other things as embellishments.


I then embellished with combined stamped messages for the occasion.  They are all from different kits or itty bitties, as well as the lady inside the bottle.

Some washi tape and punched borders were also added to the party.


The card was very personalized for the birthday party and thought for the birthday girl.  She really liked it a lot.  :)


Hope you liked it too.

Let me tell you I am trying not to be a hoarder this year... It's not quite too serious of a problem...  don't be scared, but I usually storage some stuff thinking I will be using them afterwards in a project, or maybe I'll recycle... or "I'll find a use for it"...  So this means I have packaging, labels, tags, boxes, and articles I see future on them...   But I guess I don't really use them all and don't have the time to do it; so I'll have to really make sure that when I storage something it's because I'll really use it soon.

Do you have the same issues?  Is this part of being a scrapbooker?  What can you tell me about it?
