Yesterday I mailed out Todd's card and I also added this small chicken soup / get well goodie inside .. he should be quite surprised to get it .. even though yesterday he did say he was feeling a little better since he got some antibiotic's from the doc . But you know the chicken soup packet will help him alot more right ? right!
This is what it looks like opened and inside holds the chicken soup broth packet.. so cute and even though this is a new stamp set this year its going bye bye on this years retirement list .. I actually had to borrow my moms set again to make this one for Todd since I do not own this set personally Thank goodness for mommas.. I know this looks really familuar to my club girls since we made these this past March .. See It always helps to keep your project worksheet girls .. Can you see the white gel pen I added to the background of the swirls from the Background basics stamp set ..
I also double stamped the steam above the bowl of soup .. I love that steamy stamp. Its sooo cute.
This little chicken broth holder above measures 9 3/4 X 3 1/4 score on both ends at 3 1/4 then cut the right side end at a diagonal from inside of 3 1/4 score line to 1/2 way down or so to outside edge, then apply a thin line of adhesive to the bottom edge and fold over to the inside TA DA instant pocket for the chicken broth .. Sure hope this make sense girls ..
Have a Great Wednesday and I will see you tomorrow ...
Until later ... Happy Stampin!!
