For Carla's clever WT715 Creative Containers challenge.
I used Leigh's Totally Totes tutorial to make this little bag to contain a necklace I gave my niece. I combined it with the faux stamped leather tutorial (Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers, and embossed the handles. A good workout for the Crop-a-Dile, and I just about managed to find12 matching snaps. I cut the initial from a tomato paste tube and embedded into the little tag, and was thrilled to find I even had some very old ball chain to add it.

Love, love, love this tote Sabrina and love the faux leather. I really want to try the faux leather tutorial it has been on my list of things to try for so long and just have not gotten to it yet. I bet your niece loved this as much as the necklace.

OMGosh, Sabrina...this looks like really leather...I had to read your description and paper to see that it wasn't! WOOZER! AND, it is soooo stylish! Love the dotted embossed and the gold brads. It looks like the straps and edges are hand-sewn with thread! Can't exclaim enough...so I LOVE IT!
