Today I am sharing a cute mini gift bag using the Paper Medley Mix-In DSP from Stampin' Up!®. I got the instructions from Julie over at The Paper Pixie.
Today I am showing you how to make this cute little triangular shaped purse. I used items from the Beary Comforting Paper Pumpkin Kit (Dec. 2020) by Stampin' Up!. It turned out very nice, if I must say so myself. Below you will find the video tutorial and template for this project. A BIG thanks to Angelina for the instructions.
Hello Hivers, I couldn't wait to make one of these cute little purses using the All Dressed Up dies set. I paired it with the Wrapped In Plaid SDSP for a little shine. I stamped a couple of the images from the Dressed To Impress stamp set and added Gold Foil accents. I even decorated the back of the purse. You can see images of the back and the front pocket items below.
As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. Until next time....Buzzz you later. Honeybee
What if being creative was your job? Oh, wait! It can be! I would love to have you join my team.
Hello Hivers, Today I am sharing an alternate project using only items from the November 2018 Paper Pumpkin Kit. I did need to use a few tools to complete this project, but everything else came straight from the kit. I have also prepared a written/picture tutorial for you. This is the same purse that I fell in love with a while back. I have just figured out different measurements to make it even smaller. Thanks to Angelina for the great tutorial to begin with.
Here are the pieces you will need for the project.
Begin by adhering the Front & Back Panels as shown. Round the corners on the Top Flap on the larger section.
Adhere the Top Flap to the back panel of the purse as shown.
Use the Bone Folder to add a curve in these pieces. Add adhesive of choice as shown.
Add Side Panels to main piece as shown below. Continue to adhere Side Panels to Front & Back Panels.
Add Velcro or other closure of choice to Top Flap as shown.
Adhere Handle to middle section of Top Flap as shown.
Embellish as desired. Congratulations, you are done!

Hello Hivers, Welcome to the July's Stampers By The Dozen Blog Hop. This month we are bringing you projects that are redos of one of our earlier works. This will be so much fun. I have decided to redo my very first blog post from August 2008 using products from the current annual catalog.
A Blast From the Past
For todays project I am using items from the Tropical Escape Suite along with a few items from the Darling Label Punch Box. As with any CASE project, I will change a few things but keep with the general design of the original project.
Project Redo
Since the original project was a bag, I thought I would make a bag as well. Any excuse to make a 3D project :). Here are two mini bags that can hold a few chocolate candies such as Hershey's Kisses or Nuggets.
Bag Measurements
I decorated with 2 pieces of DSP measuring 1-5/8" x 3-1/8"
Smaller Bag 6" x 3.5" DSP (2) 1.5" x 2.5" Score long side at: 1-5/8", 2-5/8", 4.25", 5.25" Score short side at: 7/8" (optional* sides only 1-7/8")
One Last Look
Just a reminder...The Tropical Escape Designer Series Paper, used on these projects, is included in the BUY 3 GET 1 FREE sale for the month of July. I hope you have enjoyed your visit to the Hive today. Sooo...What did you think of my projects for this Hop? Leave a comment and let me know. Remember, this is a Blog Hop, the excitement continues... Hop on over to Carly's blog...she is up next in the Blog Hop.
Hello Hivers, I am loving this Painted With Love Specialty Designer Series Paper. I thought it would look good made into a purse. I used the tutorial by Intatwyne Designs, that I found on YouTube. Now I just need to figure out what to put in it and who to give it to. LoL As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. Until next time....Buzzz you later. Honeybee
Hello Hivers,
I was on Pinterest looking for some ideas for Halloween. I came across a project by Karen Robinson. I knew I had to CASE it. As always, I changed a few things to make the project my own. I just love the way it turned out.
As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. Until next time....Buzzz you later. Honeybee
I had two extra bags left over from the September 2015 Paper Pumpkin kit. I decided to use them for Christmas. I switched up the contents of the bag just a bit: swapped pumpkin spiced marshmallows for peppermints. (See this POST for bag contents.) I took out the paper straw and tied a nice Christmasy ribbon around the bag. I added some eyes and, of course, the famous Red Nose. And there you have it! Rudolph the Paper Pumpkin Reindeer.
Supplies:
1", 3/4" and 1/2" Circle Punch
Whisper White card stock, Basic Black card stock, and Red Glimmer Paper
White Gel Pen
Riding Hood Red Grosgrain Striped Ribbon (retired)
Okay...I forgot this project was part of the teacher appreciation gifts from last year. The tag has the teachers initial on it. I used two different letter "B's", one on each side of the tag.
Just about all of the items used are now retired. But the purse is still pretty. It can easily be recreated with current products.
Here is a handbag that I created using my favorite colors...Red and Black. I used a tutorial I found over at Persephone's Papercraft.
I used the retired Back to Black DSP to decorate with. I also added a tag with my personalized stamp. I so wish that Stampin' Up! would have continued to offer these.
Basic Black, Peaceful Pine, Bubble Bath, Basic Beige Cardstock - Pearlized Faceted Circles
