This cute purse started life as a candy box! I liked the unsual shape and how it opened. I got it at half-price the day after Valentine's!
It's covered in cardstock that I stamped on. The lower brown flower strip was stamped in craft ink. All the edges were sponged with brown ink and faux stitching was done prior to adhering the cardstock to the box. The box opens & closes at the flower embellishment with a velcro dot.

The image for my last Happiness card was broken in the upload and I didn't realize it before sending the card off. I hope to get it re-stamped for you and will post it.
I hope you have enjoyed my samples from these new sets . . . it was tons of fun to play with them and prepare the samples for Stampin' Up's annual convention display boards.
If you check back in after midnight tomorrow, when it's officially the 8th of August, I'll be able to share the samples I prepared for Gina K's Stamps for a Cause set!
That is soooo sweet! TFS!

I have been sitting here with my jaw on the ground, looking at your last few posts! I *love* what you've done with the Happiness set, and I can't get over your creativity (although I should expect nothing less)!! Thanks for helping me see all the possibilities! :)

Sharon, this is totally and completely wonderful! What girly girl wouldn't love such a fabulous 'card' - actually a gift in itself!?! You inspire ... every day my friend!
