This is the sample I made for Dina's HYCCT
challenge - to feature an image that has a handle, or use a shape that has a handle. When I signed up to make a sample, I was remembering that I had a template for this little purse. Well - apparently in the years since I last made one (2011) the template has disappeared but thankfully I still had one card made from it.
I cut the back and front, and stamped them both with the Leopard print. I made little gussets to stick them together - which wasn't in the original design, and means that there is easily room in this to slip in a gift card or a small treat. Ribbon handle is threaded through eyelets set in the back of the purse, and I used a magnetic snap to hold it closed. It's decorated with buttons, feathers and a silver pen.
For the tag to go inside, I just stamped the image and trimmed it to a tag shape, finishing it with the silver pen and adding more pink ribbon.
You can find the Master Challenge thread with all the HYCCT challenges HERE, and the chat thread is HERE
We do hope you'll join in this fun month of challenges for our 5th annual Hope You Can Cling To card drive, with plenty of prizes for those who participate!

I got an excess of bright pink cardstock in a grab box, and you've just given me an idea! Love these samples, and thank you for making them for my challenge, even in the middle of a hard time. You're amazing.
Someone will really appreciate this wonderful gift duo.
