A big thanks to Sandy for stepping in and setting such a fun challenge for this month's Tickle a Teapotter.
{We still have some vacant slots if anybody else would like to volunteer HERE ;-)}
Life here is crazy busy so instead of the fancy floral arrangement I'd have liked to add to this little evening purse it's plain old Primas - but for some evening glamour I punched my foliage from green Mirri card.
At the moment it's monogrammed for me, but I'll change those initials out when I know who it's going to!
Base is cut from BG Card Shoppe. The leopard print is one of IO's Cover-a-Card stamps: stamped in black, then sponged with antique linen, vintage photo, scattered straw and dried marigolds. I sponged the edges with more vintage photo and added stitch lines with a gold pen. The handle is from a pack of various gold cordings for mixed media. I had a little heart button which I covered with gold EP but thankfully I discovered it wasn't going to stick. So I replaced it with a little antique-look gold heart made from several punchies glued together, gold ink, gold EP with UTEE in the last layer, and luster rub-ons.
On the inside I stamped a sentiment from Verve, foliage from Vintage Vogue and added another pink flower.
I feel a bit ho-hum about it but I hope whoever gets it will like it!!

Sue,
Your beautiful evening bag is not "ho hum" in the least! I love the pink flower and the inside looks lovely as well! Oh, and the animal print is awesome!
