May Samples 002I am so far behind…. I’m just sending my May RAK’s (Random Acts of Kindness) out to my ClothPaperScissors Yahoo Group ladies. Oh, yeah. It’s JUNE! Yipes.

I’ve been so overwhelmed lately that I just put that particular project on the back burner.  I actually started them in April, and got a nice head start on altering the bottle caps. (I stamped some scrapbook paper, then attached in into the flattened bottle caps. I added the cute little bubble stickers, then coated the whole she-bang with Paper Glaze and a sprinkle of glitter.

So even thought we’re halfway through June, now, I hope the recipients are pleased with their little gifties. I’m kind of excited to see how folks react to the words they get- “faith”, “wish”, “dream”, “joy,” and “love.” I only hope it speaks to them in the moment.
