Big Shot Purse

I realized that I'd made this purse a while back but never posted it. It's perfect for a gift card, candy, jewelry etc, and it's made with Big Shot dies. I've made these before and saw the instructions on Becky Robert's blog here. 

I ran some Melon Mambo thru the Big Shot with the Top Note die and then ran some Cheerful Treat DSP thru too. I trimmed down the DSP. I also used the Scallop Circle#2 die for the flap and the Circles#2 die too. I dotted the scallops with my White Gel pen. I punched out a Lucky Limeade circle with the 1 3/8 inch Circle punch. I stamped the flower from Fruit and Flowers in Melon Mambo, cut it out and added a Lucky Limeade Designer Printed Brad. I used some retired Jumbo eyelets and then finally, some 3/8 inch Lucky Limeade ruffled ribbon.

Here's my recipe:

Stamps: Fruit and Flowers

Papers: Whisper White, Lucky Limeade, Melon Mambo, Cheerful Treat DSP

Inks: Melon Mambo

Accessories: Circles#2 and Scallop Circle#2 Big Shot dies, 1 3/8 inch Circle punch, retired Jumbo Eyelets, 3/8 inch Lucky Limeade Ruffled ribbon, white gel pen, Lucky Limeade Designer Printed brad

PPA#26 Anything But a Card-Top Note Purse

This week at PPA is Anything But a Card. So I thought this little Top Note Purse I made for Valentine's Day would fit that bill. I found the instructions on Becky Roberts awesome blog here.

There's actually no stamping on the cute thing.I used Real Red card stock as my base and some pretty papers from the Sending Love Specialty DSP. The Top Note and Scallop Circles #2 are the Big Shot dies. And the other accessories include 5/8 inch Real Red Satin ribbon, Antique Brass Jumbo Eyelets, the Crop-a-dile, the 5-petal flower punch, 3/4 inch circle punch and a Real Red 1/2 inch Sending Love Epoxy brad.

Here's my recipe:

Stamps: None

Papers: Real Red, Pretty in Pink, Very Vanilla and Sending Love Specialty DSP

Accessories: 5/8 inch Real Red Satin ribbon, Top Note and Scallop Circles #2 big shot dies, Antique Brass Jumbo eyelet, Crop-a-dile, 5-petal flower punch, 3/4 inch circle punch, Real Red 1/2 inch Sending Love Epoxy brad
