Stampers_club_valentines_2007 Here is what I made for my Stampers club  Girls  and handed them out Saturday night .. The  Pretty in pink note card  I used whisper white also  and  the main heart is from the "Simply said " stamp set   then for the little hearts in the background and the saying I used  "Small Saying " stamp set in the Winter mini. I stamped everything in Pretty in pink  classic ink  except for the saying I stamped that in regal rose. I also used  the ticket corner punch .. I then added  Lt pink Gingham ribbon  by stapling   an X  to attached the ribbon, What card couldn’t use a like doodle? So  with my white gel pen doodled  tiny dots down the edge of the top mat .. OK now for the  tiny  nugget purse ..OH my  are these  so stinkin cute or WHAT? All thanks goes to Brenda Quintana she shared hers with  SCS ( I believe )  anyway  here is my take on  her sample   ..  Here are the measurements ..

Cut  your cs out at 1 3/8 by 4 3/4 punch one end of the strip with the tag punch  ( turn your tag punch over  and slide your strip in  from the punched out area   punching out ONLY the  tag punch  angles )  I used the very punny stamp  set ( omitting the pig and just stamped tickled pink )  and I also stamped the little pieces  stamp  with regal rose to get the tone on tone look  for the purse .  ok starting  at the tag punch end score at 3/4 , 1", 2 1/4′, and 3 1/4" Then cut off any remaining  cs   so your  total end length will be  4 1/2"  long . I cut out any length of ribbon for the handle ( Brenda said to cut 4" )  but cut to your liking  attach with a glue dot or sticky strip to the inside  where you scored at 3/4 and 1". Then I stamped   in whisper white cs with regal rose   one of the little pieces  stamp  and punched a 1/16 punch for the tiny circle in the center of the little pieces image  1st , then punch the  image out  with the 1/2 circle punch .   fold up all scored marks and  while holding the  flap  closed up purse & punch a 1/16 tiny hole  in the center of the  flap  going through both layers of your purse  secure your white  circle  piece with a colored brad .. I than added the nugget with  2 glue dots  when the purse is all put together ( at least this was the easiest way for me to  add the candy .. after the purse was put together)  seems like alot to do  for such a tiny purse BUT really  its Not  much at all especially  after you 1st make one .. maybe I will do a tutorial on these cute purses  for you  soon  How does that sound ?  they are really  so  very simple and ooooohhh so cute ..
