This is for today's inspiration challenge. We were to choose something from the Fossil website to create something. I chose this cute tote handbag: http://www.fossil.com/en_US/shop/wom...e-zb4655p.html I used gray cs as the base, made it into a 5X7 card to make it work. I used a medium square punch on gray, burgundy, peachy orange & GP white cs, then cut into triangles. I adhered them on a piece of lined cs, just to get them as straight as I can, but it didn't work out that way. I used a black fine sharpie pen to make the notches around each triangle as well as the outside of the panel. I stamped the flower with black stazon on the peachy cs, made 2 flowers, cut out & added a black button with white DMC floss. I also added 2 black flourish chipboard glitter stickers underneath.
If you look at the purse closely that's where the stitching comes in. Doing on the sewing machine would of been tougher that's why I made the stitching using a pen.
