Hi all. Here is a little purse gift card holder I made for a Challange over at Emma's My Creative Time
Just want to share my latest
scrap-lifted creation. I was seeing
these little purse gift sets and thought they were so cute. I wanted to make one as a gift cardholder for
the bigger gift cards. Here is what I
came up with.
The purse I studied before I made mine
was one on Scrapalette’s Blog (here)
.
For mine, I wailed images together
in the circuit craft room using Forever Young and Art Philosophy cricut carts. I also used my cuttlebug with a sizzix folder called stars
and swirls—used it just on the flap.
This was pretty easy once I found
out the size I need for the gift card.
The large gift card (I-tunes) measures approximately 5 ¼ by 3 ½, so I
need to make my purse base half’s just a little bigger than that. So the narrowest part of the purse base is 5 5/8 by
7 ½ plus the flap. Total length of base with
flap is 10 inches. Outside cover is
shorter (to leave an edge) at 9 inches.
Inside pocket piece is 8 by 4 1/2 .
The pocket piece is folded in half and scored 1 inch in on each end --
that is the part that is folded over and glued down.
Other supplies – lavender chalk
ink, glitter pen, small pieces of velcro set (for flap closure), purple ribbon,
glue, Emma’s My Creative Time stamp set
(Polka-dotSurprise). Imagine Vintage paper
(music sheet for music cards!), and black /lavender colorcore card stock.
God Bless and Happy Scrappin’
