Love this Basic Grey paper! I bought it at Christmas time and the back has delightful trees, so I was keeping it for next year...but that houndstooth print was just calling me for the VSN weekend. I used the Faux Metal technique using silver to make the purse clasp...that is WAY cool and fun!! The flower is from SU Flowers and Friends. I punched the flower from the leftover paper for the tag. The chipboard tag has cute little olive colored X design and is from Kazoo Kids Chipboard set, with a very cool green rhinestone brad in silver square to hold the flower. The ribbon at the top is what Pottery Barn uses for gift wrap...my niece registered there a few years agon, and I kept ALOT of this ribbon after she opened her gifts! So I guess this should be called the "Hoardstooth Bag" because that is what I've done for most of these supplies!

A woman after my own heart - I'm a hoarder, too! We should start a therapy group for craft supply hoarders! Your bag turned out beautiful, and I'm so impressed with your ingenuity and creativity in pulling all of this together. Great job! Thanks so much for playing my challenge today!

No, no, no Kelly. It's 'you aint nothing about a hound dog." Got it? Who special to be able create this adorable bag and then tie that sound into your title. Both title and purse are magnificent! Loving it, girl.!
