June Stamp Camp Part One-Purse

Happy Happy Thursday My Blogger Friends!
Today I will begin sharing my Stamp Camp projects/cards with you - Let's jump right in......
I decided that I would venture into terrority that is not comfortale to me......and decided to make my June Stamp Camp a "Vintage Theme" camp.  We made four cards and also this adorable Labels Collection Framelits Purse.
The purse was made with two of the largest Labels Collection Framelits and a simple box for the inside.  As you can see.....the four vintage cards tucked nicely inside the purse.
The purse insert was made with a Whisper White piece that was cut 6"x6-3/8".  It was scored on the 6" side at 1" and 5-3/8".....And on the 6-3/8" side it was scored at 3-1/2" and 2-1/2".  We merely snipped the center score lines to form the box and adhered it to each of the inside edges of the Label Framelits.
The handle was made with a 11-1/2"x1/2" piece of Whisper White and attached to the box with a couple mini brads.
The front of the purse was decorated with a piece of Twitterpated DSP and the flowers were made using the Fun Flowers Bigz L Die.  We used a bone folder to soften up each of the petals - and then we were able to seperate the petals to create a distressed vintage look for our flowers.  We also added one of the new Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons to the center of our flower for a vintage glass-like look.
We added a fun little tag to our handle ..... We used "Made For You" stamp set and the new Ticket Duo Builder Punch.  This tag was adhered to our handle by using a small piece of Bakers Twine and then dressed up the handle with several layers of ribbon.  We used a small piece of Crochet Trim Ribbon and a couple pieces of the 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon in the new Raspberry Ripple In-Color.
Here's a sneak peek of the cards that were tucked inside this purse.....and I'll start sharing those cards with you tomorrow.  Hope you can come back and join me for that share.
Keep Living Your Dream!
