Purse Books

| | |

I think my camera is fixed now. I changed some settings and it seemed to do the trick. Anyway, here are a few purse books that I made over the past couple weeks. The first one I saw was here on Jan’s Stamps, Paper, Scissors blog. She did a great job explaining how to make them. Then I saw a few more posted on the CTMH Consultant Board and another adorable one made by Bren Yule. So, of course I had to try one for myself. Once I made one, I had to make more. They are so fun to make.

Here is the first one I made. I used standard A2 sized envelopes so this one is sort of a mini purse book. I used the butterfly paper from CTMH’s new Blue Ribbon paper pack and the yellow striped paper from CTMH’s Let’s Get Together paper pack. The stamps used were CTMH’s June Stamp of the Month called With Love, Whimsical Wings, Cottage Floral, and Journaling Jots.
