I free-handed this purse card design for Cathy's fantastic challenge to "Shape Up"; create a shaped card.
I created the purse card base and handles with Marina Mist card stock. I used Stampin' Up!'s lovely retired Paisley Petals DSP on the front and back of the card base. I made the top flap on the purse card with the same DSP, using an IO frame die (sorry, I cannot find the name of the die). I alternated two designs from the DSP on the flap and added that on a piece of Old Olive card stock. I attached the flap to the card base with foam tape.
I created a Tangerine Tango rose with a Swarovski Crystal in the center and attached it to the purse flap. Using an ODBD oval die, I cut out two ovals to which I added the sentiment and two Swarovski Crystals.
The purse card folds like a regular card and there is plenty of room on the inside for a personal message. The card measures 7" x 5-1/2".
Thanks so much for viewing and commenting!

Wow Bev! This is just incredible! I LOVE purses and I especially love retro-style purses, and this one is just terrific. I am amazed that you free-handed this beauty (although, I should not be amazed knowing how incredibly and wonderfully talented you are!). I love this card design, the wonderful dsp you used, just the right dies, and this fabulous rolled rose closure. Hugs my friend! ~Karen.
