Now where's my purse?

Greetings everyone!

Glue, Scissors, Paper is having a fabulous challenge this week: Purses! Now, I'm not talking about Nine West (my favorite), Coach, Gucci or any of those purses that we have in our closet that costs so much!

The design team was tasked to make a purse and although we were provided with a fantastic tutorial reference, I found an easier one. Check it out:

This is the front. It's a very simple template that requires more folding in the right direction than cutting. I added ribbon to make a border, blue sheer ribbon to go with the "baby boy" theme of blue. The other blue ribbon is used for handles. The folded outcome is two pockets, which I have filled with tags.

This is the back view, where I have adhered plastic baby bottles - aren't they cute?

The tags were cut using my Cricut. I added cute stickers and even made a pocket on one of the tags to hold more tags.

I added a square pocket with a half circle top - stamped a sentiment, added some other die-cuts I had to give it more room for journaling or pictures.

Here, more tags with some bling on the daisy that serves as a topper for a tag. Look, there's even a folio that opens up. There's a house stamped and I colored it with colored pencils.

This was a fun project - another way to utilize a mini album - would make a great gift for the mom-to-be or grandmother brag book. We can always use another purse, right?

So, while you sip your morning coffee and browse the blog reader, why not check out Glue, Scissors, Paper and check out what the rest of the DT has made. These ladies are sure to bring out the need for another purse in you.

Have a beautiful day y'all! ;~)
