This little purse will be given to a friend who loves St Patty's day (not yet sure what will go into it yet!). what a cute and FAST project to put together... love that!
I needed a clover but don't have one so I used the flower from natural beauty..I think it is a good sub if you don't look too closely! I stamped it in wild wasabi and colored it in with prismacolor pencils.
I'm a bit annoyed because I cut into the scalloped edge on the inside when I punched the slots for the handles. Please someone tell me it's not too noticable because it's all I see when it's open now! Oh, and I used magnet buttons below the clover medalion and on the inside of the box to make the top stay up.
thanks for looking!

I like your lucky 4 leaf clover. I really like how you did the handles of your purse. Maybe you could fill it with green skittles, green M & M's or green jellybeans.

Love your use of the Natural Beauty flower, wouldn't have caught that if you hadn't mentioned it. Great coloring job!! The handles are fine. . . don't see what you do. . .
