Instructions:

Cut a piece of white cardstock at 10” x 5 ¼” and score at 4 ½” and 5 ¾” to create the base of the purse.

Adhere the magnet to the front of the card as shown.  Cut a piece of patterned paper at 5 2/16” and 4 2/16” and adhere it over the front of the purse.

 

 

Cut two pieces of white cardstock at 4 ¼” x 4 ½” and score every ¾” along the 4 ½” side to create the sides.

Adhere these pieces to the sides of the purse as shown.

Cut a piece of white cardstock 4 ½” x 5 ¼” and score at 3/4” x 1 ¼” along the shorter edge to create the top.  Using the edge die from the semi-circular medallion set die cut the edge of the top as shown.

Using the edge die cut from the Decorative Medallion die along the edge as shown.

Cut two strips of patterned paper 6/16” x 5 2/16” and ¾” x 5 2/16” and adhere at the top and front of the top.  Die cut the edge and decorative dies out of white cardstock and adhere together before adhering to the front as shown.

Adhere top to the back of the purse.

Cut two strips of patterned paper 3/8” x 12” and adhere together to create the handle.

Score at 1” at each end and then adhere to the top as shown.  Cut a piece of patterned paper at 3/8” x 5 2/16 and adhere over the top.

 

Take a small washer and place it over the magnet on the front.  Add some glue on it and close the top over the purse.  Lift the top and the glue will leave a mark on the back of the top.  Adhere the washer over this mark with Dries Clear Glue.

Cut a piece of patterned paper 3” x 5 ¼”. Die cut the edge with the edge die from the Medallion set and then adhere to the back of the top as shown.

Stamp the image from HCPC-3817 Lush Lilac & Umbrella Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black ink on white cardstock and die cut with the coordinating die.   Sponge the leaves with Fern Green ink and colour the flowers with the Purple and Lavender inks using the Dove Blender pen.  Add Ultrafine glitter to the image with the Dries Clear Glue, shape and adhere to the front of the purse.

Stamp the lilacs from the HCPC-3816 Lush Lilac Cling Stamp in Pearlescent Purple and Lavender inks, sponge with the coordinating inks, and die cut with the corresponding die.  Shape the lilacs with the HCFB1-466 Lush Lilac Mold, allow to dry, shape and adhere the lilacs to lilac spray. Add Crystal Clear glitter to the lilacs with a damp sponge and add Lavender & Lace prills to the centres of the flowers with Dries Clear Glue.

To finish, add Ultrafine Crystal glitter to the images with Dries Clear glue. Add pearls on the handle.

These purses take 3 4 3/4″ x 3 3/4″ cards for ease for a lovely gift idea.

Here are some other purses I have made using different collections.

 

Have fun creating these purses.
