"Purse"only speaking

Until recently, I did not make many 3D projects.  But now I see so many cute things that I must try them for myself.  Case in point, this little purse!

I have made many of these purses of late-- for raffle prices, guest prizes, and for my friends.  They are just so cute!  They are made using the little composition notebooks that you can buy for less than $1 at the big box stores. I must confess that this is not my idea.  The kudos belong to a wonderfully inventive stamper, Becky Roberts, who has a blog named Inking Idaho.  She has provided a tutorial on making these nifty purses!  Isn't she wonderful!  Rather than re-invent the wheel and tell you how it's done, I'm going to send you to her tutorial!

Next up is a "purse" that I designed based on a card box I saw at my friend Mary Cargill's, a fellow SU demonstrator. (Hi Mary!) I wanted my card box to look more like a spring purse!  Here's what I came up with...

I was tickeled pink when it was finished!  My children and even DH said it was cute.  My, my, my, such flattery! It uses a SU stamp block case (which only demos can purchase, so be nice to your demonstrator if you want one! hehehe).  I placed a Trinket Key coming out of the front pocket since that is usually how my keys ride in my purse.  Amazing that I have never lost them. 

Here's a side view.

When opened there are cards for the recipient to use.  These are very simple cards which all use the Sweet Summer Sale-a-Bration Set and the always classic Sincere Salutations.  They are what I call "Onederful" cards since they are single layers and easy peasy, get-out-the-door-now cards. Stazon Black Ink and markers of your choice are all you need besides some Whisper white Card stock.  I made 8 cards to fill this purse.

Here are the 8 cards.  They were designed by my upline Linda Gutierrez. Pretty "Onderful" huh?!

Have I overused the word wonderful? Maybe I should get out the thesarus...hmmm. Snazzy, ideal, beyond compare... are those synonyms for wonderful?  OH!!!  I know a synonym for wonderful!  YOU!

Thanks for checking in with me. (Or should I say checking up on me?)
