I heart purses!



I love these little cards too! These purses were made using Stampin' Up! punches. I used the Round Tab punch for the bag, the Word Window punch for the closure with the 1/16" handheld punch so I could add a brad. The handle was made by using the small oval punch and the large oval punch. I found it easier to punch the small oval first, and then line up the large oval punch to get the thickness of the handle that I wanted.
Here are a few pictures of the handle to show you what I'm talking about...

I used my tape runner to adhere the entire handle to the back of the round tab punch. Obviously, the larger part of the oval will not be seen. Give them a try and let me know what you think!
