Purse Card Holder




If you are looking for the Fantabulous Cricut project, please see post just below.

Hello everyone! It's time for a new challenge at My Craft Spot! This week the challenge is "Hot Summer   Colors". Create a project using summer colors.
For my project today, I made a purse card holder. I found the tutorial HERE if you would like to check it out. I just LOVE how this turned out and I want to apologize for the not so great pictures. This was really hard to photograph!
All the pattern papers I used for this project came from the DCWV Citrus Stack. The closure for the top and the pocket, I used velcro sticky tabs. (YES! That pocket really opens and closes! That's where you add the postage stamps) The ribbon handle I glued down using tacky tape and then added brads over the top for extra security. I tied twine around the center button and added the stamped tag. I also secured this down with tacky tape. To finish I added cards from my stash and envelopes to the inside pockets.
I hope you all liked my project and hope you will play along this week. Please don't forget to check out what the rest of the DT has created! Have a great day!

SUPPLIES:
My Craft Spot- Tiny Tags Stamp Set and Orange Divine Twine
Velcro sticky tabs
Ribbon
