Nestabilities Purse Card

Here is a fun little purse card that I made awhile back using the Classic and Scallop Oval Nestabilites from Spellbinders. This is a very quick and easy card to make but depending on how you embellish it it can take on many different looks.To make the little purse card fold a piece of CS in half just like you would for making a regular card. Then have the folded edge of the CS slightly off of the cut edge of the scallop oval die. You might want to add a small piece of tape to the edge to hold the die in place. Run the die and the CS through your Wizard or whichever die cutting system you have to cut and emboss. Pop your CS out and you know have the base for your purse card. You can design it however you would like! I used a Fancy Pants stamp from the Simply Stated set. I stamped the floral images in black and then colored in using Copic sketch markers. I added some beaded fringe to the bottom of the purse and some black ribbon for the handle. To make the closure at the top I used a die cut from the Ladies Fashion Buckles die (S3-034). Also to finish of the inside I added two of the Classic Oval Nestabilities.A couple of days ago I entered the JustRite Stampin' Champion Contest and I found out today that my card was chosen as one of the six "hopefuls"!! The voting started today and goes until 9 PM Tuesday. I did a "Think Pink" card for Breast Cancer Awareness. My card and all of the other "hopefuls" can be seen by clicking HERE. So please check it out and go vote for your favorite project!! Also all of the details for the JustRite Stampin' Champion Contest can be found by clicking HERE. There is still time to enter the contest so check it out!!

I hope you have enjoyed todays card. Thank you so much for stopping by today & I hope you have a great weekend!!

Smiles!

  2. Hello Heidi!

    I've followed your blog along for a couple of months and came back again tonight. Your work is SO AMAZING!!! What is it your doing that makes it so incrediable?! I wanna be your neighbor soooo bad! But no doubt I'd drive you nuts asking so many questions. You tell how you make these things and you describe it so smoothly, but looking at it I'm just in awe!!!
