Last week I brought this little jar of tester paint from Wilkinsons for 10p.
I remembered today in an old issue (issue 4) of Homemaker magazine they made a milk glass using emulsion paint and a glass jar.

I waited for Mark to get back so he could help with this! Firstly we poured in half the little pot of blue paint. We tried rolling it around the jar but it was incredibly thick so we used a paintbrush being careful not to leave brush strokes.
Here it is all finished. It is now being left to dry so I will update again tomorrow to see what it looks like once it is dry.
I also cut up two cards (brought in the Birthday's closing down sale in February) to make my own versions. I left the sentiments in each of them blank so I can stamp a message such as "Get Well Soon" when they are needed.
Firstly, a purple flower card and matching gift tag.

Secondly, a cream flower card that I embossed a border around and matching gift tag.
I thought it was about time I used up many of the stickers I have brought and then not known what to do with! I saw this idea online and "borrowed" it!
This was an outline sticker of a ladies dress which I stuck to card for strength and coloured in using a gel pen. I then cut around it very carefully and threaded cotton through the shoulder strap to make a gift tag.
