Craftymom ... could you post the instructions? I saw one tonight at a stamp camp but didn't know how to make it.

Here are directions:
from: http://www.scrapnstampn.com/tips.html

Purse-a-lope
1. Fold gussets on 3 sides of an envelope (sturdier ones work the best).
2. Fold over the 2 sides & bottom - ½ to ¼ wide.
3. Fold back & forth for a strong, burnished crease.
4. While flat stamp your purse as desired.
5. Put your hand into the envelope & turn it into a purse by making the sides stand out as gussets & the bottom into a purse bottom.
6. Fold the bottom triangles under & glue or tape them down.
7. Fold the envelope flap over the top. Use a hold punch to make 2 half circles at the top of the purse. Thread a piece of ribbon through the holes & tie inside the purse.
8. After putting a small gift inside the purse you can seal the flap closed, or use a small piece of Velcro to close.

Sorry I don't have a picture but I'm sure someone else does !

Sooo cute! Thanks for posting the site and directions! You gals are the best and so clever! I'm going to make these to give to my nieces for Easter with some little trinkets inside-- I'm excited and sure they will love them! I'm such a great aunt! I love SCS!
