Raid your medicine cabinet my friend!

Because those ugly orangy medicine bottles...can become something so beautiful! Take for instance this medicine bottle altered to hold my roll of stamps!!! Of course I am not one to take away credit from the originator of this idea...so here is HER rendition of the altered medicine bottle! ISN'T IT GENIOUS!!! So...my roll of stamps gets beat up a bit when I just toss it in a box in my cubby...so I had to make one to house my roll of postage!!! Whatcha think? Gonna raid your medicine cabinets? *wink* The flowers I attached a top were a TY gift from Gina of Gina K. for my recent order...she ROCKS!!! I bet you don't know where I got the sentiment "Don't forget the stamps"? Well...I partially stamped the sentiment from Passaport Hanna that says "Don't forget. Get your passaport STAMPED!" LOL! Clever huh? I used my SU writer to add the S at the end of stamps and the word "the". Not great...but it works! LOL!

Supplies:
CS: BBlack & DP I got at Target
Ink: BBlack
Stamps: Passaport Hanna
Embellishments: Prima flowers, bling, burgundy satin ribbon, & black gingham ribbon
Others: medicine bottle, mega scalloped punch, giga scalloped punch, SU scalloped punch, 1 3/8" circle punch, & hot knife (to make slit)
