Designer Series Paper Purse / Tote

Posted On: 13. 09. 15

I recently taught a class on how to make a super cute Designer Series Paper (DSP) Purse.  We filled them with chocolate treats, a matching pen, a covered journal, a package of tissues, a small pad of sticky notes and a set of matching greeting cards.

Designer Series Paper Purse - Real Red

Each tote bag measures approx. 9.5″ high (including the handles), 6″ to the top of the actual bag and 7″ x 3″ around. These are hefty and you can stuff a lot more things in them than you can possibly imagine. We used a lot of retired DSP, ribbon and brads that I had in my crafter’s hoard.  Don’t judge me, I know you have one too.  😉

Basic tools you will need to make the Designer Series Paper Purse are a paper trimmer,  a simply scored scoring tool, a handheld scallop punch, a strong adhesive like tear tape, a paper piercing tool, a corner rounder punch and a stampin’ pierce mat.

The journal was created by purchasing a generic small paper notebook at the $Store.  The size of your journal will determine the size of the card stock required to cover it.  I stamped my own cover by stamping a small flower image from the Petite Petal stamp set and embellishing with ribbon, a small flower and rhinestone, plus a sentiment.

The fun thing about this project was that everyone went home with a completely different project, as each person chose a different colour for the base and coordinating DSP.

I have all the directions on a Word document.  If you would like a copy, you will receive it free, via email, with a $35 dollar purchase from my online store.  Just be sure to sign in and choose me as your demonstrator. Thanks and happy shopping!

WMStarPunch-001

 

I have been using my punches more and more lately. They really are terrific tools to add to your collection of stamping supplies.  The Star card is all about clean lines and simplicity and uses the Confetti Star Border Punch.  This card can be given as a baby boy card (change the colour to pink for a baby girl), a baby shower card, graduation card, promotion card or engagement card.  It is quite versatile.  Framelits used in this card are: Stars & Bitty Banners. Stamp Set: Itty Bitty Banners. Specialty Paper: Silver Foil Sheets

I love what I do.  You can too, ask me how! Or Click here to learn more about becoming a Stampin’ Up independent demonstrator.
