I got a bag of yummy smelling potpourri from Wal-Mart, and I thought it just looked so pretty in the clear packaging it came in, but I KNEW I could make it look even better -- LOL!!! I thought it would be a perfect, inexpensive little gift, but I wanted it to have more WOW -- so that was the intent behind this project! I used the JustRite self-inking stamper, C30, which is the smaller of the self-inkers. It was fun!!!

Terrific idea. That ribbon is so awesome. What I really love is the way you photographed this. It could be a portrait. Great job. So pretty. Really accents your awesome idea. TFS
