Paper Purse

**emily_hope** · 07-09-2006, 03:15 PM

I was surfing the net a couple of weeks ago and found this tutorial on making a paper purse using scrapbook paper. It is so cute. This would be a unique way to give small gifts, gift cards, cash. You could use scrapbook paper you already have (if you are like me, you have plenty) or stock up when the hobby stores have it on sale. I finally had some free time and I made one today. It took me about 30 minutes. The only embellishment I used was a button on the front (that I got during the button swap here at the village) to look like the snap closure on the purse. It is adorable. Here is the link if anyone is interested.

Very Cute! I saw something like these on The Carol Duvall Show.
It was for a gift bag.
