A repeat

I know I have been slacking with tutorials lately:(
Believe me, it's not lack of ideas, but rather lack of time.
Do you feel like you can never quite catch up with...ANYTHING? I'm behind with laundry, cleaning, phone calls, emails, birthday cards and gifts, exercising (ha!), spending quality time with the kids and then the obvious-scrapping! So see, that's pretty much everything. I guess it's part of the thing called- LIFE huh?

My fingers are itching to get back in the paper crafting groove and I thought I would start simple- with a repeat.

I made these little purses this afternoon. I thought I should give them to the kids teachers for Halloween and put a nice gift certificate inside.




To see the full tutorial for these simple handbags and to get the printable template click here.

I promise-they take less than 30 minutes to make.


Don't forget the details; this is how the back look- a customized stamp from Close To My Heart.



If you would like your own stamp and don't know any CTMH consultants you can order them from here. They cost $ 12.95 for two lines like I have. I think this is a must-have for us paper crafters;)


I promise I will be back soon with some sort of tutorial...of some kind;)
