HANDBAGS AT DAWN !!

Well not quite dawn .. .. but I did make this card very early this morning .. .. before settling into work.

Some of you may remember me making these last year.

Well if I made one last year I must have made about 60 .. .. they were very popular and  I couldn't make them quick enough.  In fact I made so  many that I needed a rest from them.

But today .. I fancied making another and really enjoyed myself in the process .. .. plus I was much quicker than I was last year which helped!!  I felt a bit  like my lovely Sis designing handbags LOL!!!

So here is my share for the day:




This used:

Handbag template which you will find here
Backing Papers:  Pink Petticoat
Sentiment:  Elzybells (sadly no longer trading)
Nestabilities:  Scalloped Circle and Classic Circle
Woodware Punches:  Daisy
Button with the shank cut off

I think I would like a real version of this handbag !!!

So here we are .. .. the start of a bank holiday weekend.  Yippee!!!  I hope that you all have a good one.

Take care.

Love

  19. I think you'd have to take out a second mortgage to afford the real version of this handbag :) It's gorgeous and I can quite see why they were so popular. Have a lovely weekend. Elizabeth x

    PS: It's Barbara Gray weekend so I'll be curled up on the sofa in front of the TV for a goodly part of tomorrow and Sunday ;)

  29. Hello Jules!

    What a gorgeously girly creation and I am loving that black and white animal print paper too!

    What an under used work that is: shank. I think it is my word du jour! Must see if I can utilise it somewhere!

    Have a super weekend Jules!
