A Special Gift for you

Who couldn't resist to get a gift purse for a special occasion?  I know i love them so when i saw this new die called Candlewick Petticoats i new that it would really make up pretty. 

My first step was to measure from side to side so that i could see how wide i needed to create the purse.  Then i  made a small rectangle box the same width to put my gift in.  The black paper i folded over the box and scored it to fit and then did the same for the top.  For the dies i cut one in black to blend in on the bottom and one in white for the top to layer over a piece of grey and white.

Here is the die set with all the pieces ....

After i glued on all the pieces of the purse i added a thin handle to fit.  I had some really pretty white satin ribbon and to that i created a white rose with the new Candlewick Rosebud die set.  It was super easy to just dampen the paper and use a stylus to skrunch it up a bit and then when it was dry i glued it all together and added the leaves and that adorable candlewick flourish.  So cute!!

I think i might make some matching stationery to go into this with a gift card for Christmas.  It won't be that long to start shopping and i will be that much farther ahead.

Have a really nice day and thank you for stopping by today!
