Still waiting patiently for my new Stampin' Up! arrivals. [sigh].
I was away this weekend with the husband and his AAA Midget team in Victoria. A lovely mother's day of relaxing, enjoying double header games and an awesome day being outside in the sunshine. Stuart holds another two more wins in his book.
While waiting for his games to start, I was daydreaming and thinking what my next 3D project would be. As I am on the role in making purses and handbags, I had an idea, and I figured out the look and shape of a satchel purse but wasn't sure how to make the opening work to hold cards inside until I was inspired by a home decor with a clasp while shopping at Save-On Foods.
Here it is ... Liz's Satchel.
The opening is clasped by two magnet buttons covered with the gold foil. When you open the satchel, it can hold cards and envelopes and even a little, something, something.
The two sides have pockets to add gift cards or even 3x3 note cards.
When creating this, even with small minor adjustments, I could not believe how fast it came together. Liz's Satchel will be in production (writing and filming) next week. Release date for will be May 30, 2015.
