After a long hard week and
All day long on your feet
A sistah is ready for a spa retreat!!
So get out your paint can and
And all your supplies
And create a fellow sistah an awesome surprise!!
My challenge to all my fellow sistahs is to use a small pint paint can and create a luxurious gift to keep for yourself, give for the holidays or - for those who want to go beyond – PM me your information by upload deadline and I will send out names of challenge participants and you send your filled can surprise to a fellow sistah!! The swapping part is not mandatory at all, just an idea for a little added sistah fun!

Sorry, I didn't have a paint can, but I did have a popcorn can from LAST Christmas - hope it counts. It will be great to put some skivies or socks in for my DH this year!
Here is my FIRST EVER submission for a VSN *and* my FIRST EVER paint can... I hope I did ok on both. Pampered Coffee Break

I forgot all about this, bummer. I have a small clear paint can that is dying to be used. I need to go think of something to do with it. I need a gift for my admin, time to go cruise the gallery.
Hi Angie! I just wanted to thank you for putting this fun little challenge together for the VSN. What was supposed to be a Virtual Stamp "Night" turned out to be a Virtual Stamp "Three Days" for me! Hahaha Thank you so much for sharing your time, talent and fun times with us.
Wow... I am glad I happened upon this thread. I am always learning something new on this site! Anway... I just decorated a paint can -slightly larger than a pint, and filled it with wonderful things for my DD#1 teacher's birthday.... so since it i bigger than a pint don't know if it counts for the challenge, but I worked so hard on it and the matching card set. I just wanted to share it with you. Thanks for looking... JAN08VSNMINI9 - Late Night Birthday Can by beestamper at Splitcoaststampers
awesome challenge! I plan on filling this can with corks from wine bottles to give to my Aunt, she collects the old corks and makes trivets and stuff with them....TFL!

Thanks so much! I love altering these cans and actually put them together with spa things for my kids teachers last year. Glad you enjoyed it!
OK, ladies! If anyone is interested in swapping cans it is a direct mail to the name you will be given. Anyways, please PM me if you are interested and we can set the time for swapping after the mini VSN time is up! This will be really fun!!
I wasn't sure I was going to get this one done, but I whipped it together during cleaning and laundry breaks today. Thanks for a fun challenge, Angie! I think mine is going to head to an SCSer in the New Year! Dare to be fabulous paint can by eliotstamps at Splitcoaststampers
I finally got my paint can from Addicted to Rubber Stamps - and got it decorated for my secret santa at work which is tomorrow!!! I had the most fun doing this - thank you for this most terrific challenge!!! I never would have done one on my own I don't think!!
