I created this Cardstock Purse. The purse can be used to slip a small gift inside along with a card or several cards with matching envelopes can be made and insert - then given as a gift.
While I was creating this purse, I created a card and envelope to match. I have included the links to the tutorial below. I did tweak the Purse by not adding ribbon, but rather adding scallop circles for handles to the purse. [I am a bit off with my circle cut, but that is OK - it is my first one and this works for me.] Have a blessed day and thanks for stopping by!

ReplyDeleteHi Gail! I saw your comment on the CFS blog about feedback for CAS projects, so I came back! Yes, your card is awesome for CAS style! You have a couple of elements that pop with lots of white space (or space not covered with elements) so "the eyes can rest"...that's what I usually think of when I think CAS. Great job!! :)
