I'm sure I am the last one to know about this ever important holiday....but just in case you didn't know...I thought you'd like to set aside a little time for yourself tonight and induldge :) My little one celebrates this occasion every single day... I however can't remember the last time I soaked my weary bones and it most definitely won't happen too soon either.
I've heard that Laura Mercier Chocolate Truffle Honey Bath is a little slice of heaven on earth....have you tried it? I won't be sharing this with anyone...nope. This article from Studio 5 has more bubble bath favorites for your to enjoy as well.
Today I have a couple of little items to share.
Kinda got a little thing for these colors lately...oh, and cupcakes :) I used a stamp set from Sweet 'n Sassy stamps called Love Blooms to stamp my background of roses here, and then piled on the goodies. Paper from October Afternoon and Sassafras Lass, cupcake from Martha Stewart, chipboard from My Mind's Eye, rubon from Basic Grey, trim from Maya Road, cherry from Heidi Swapp, and ribbon from May Arts.
This week on the CPS blog there is a darling sketch and our sponsor is Sweet 'n Sassy stamps. So here you'll see the stamp set being used again for the sentiment and the background paper. Just for fun....for someone special.
Well...off to scrub something or other...I'm thinking that the suds in my kitchen sink are as close to a bubble bath that I'll get.
Enjoy your day.

That's so funny!! the one thing that I really miss from my old house is the tub!! I use to light the canles and take a bath at least four times a week!! Last weekend I stayed at a hotel and make sure that it had a whirlpool tub....I bought a bottle of bubble bath and I think I used half a bottle!! I was in heaven and stayed in there until i was a prune!! beautiful creations, Melissa!! enjoy the Bubble bath!! char

A bubble bath sounds really good. I haven't taken one in a very long time. There is no time to sit in the tub with a littl one running around.
STunning work with those stamps...I thought at first it was patterned paper.
