Purse Card

I entered an April Personal Challenge on the Cricut MB and one of my challenges is to design 5 cards on Design Studio.

Sooooo.............one of them is a PURSE CARD. This file uses George and Basic Shapes. I really like this one! I know it ain't a Coach, but it is an original just the same HA HA HA HA HA. It fits in an A2 envelope. Which is my fav size since it works will on the baby bug and also the A2 envelopes are easy to find at Wal-Mart or Staples. I used Glossy Dimensional on the leaves, Stickles on the flowers and also on the pink part of the purse. I did use a bit of velcro on the tab under the flower to keep the card closed.






On the inside of the card I made a pocket that will hold a gift card. I used the ATG 714 to adhere the pocket to the card. The file has a couple of mats, which are all labeled. I don't have any sentiment stamps right now so I had to use my U G L EE hand writing to write Happy Birthday. I think this card could be decorate up really nice, but I just wanted to get one done so I could post it HA HA HA.
