Butterfly Bijou handbag card

 Hello to you. I do hope that you are enjoying the longer hours of daylight and the signs of new life appearing through the soil and the lambs being born. A hopeful sign for the future. 

Today I have chosen to share with you an idea I was given by Sharon Chapel. To make a card in the shape of a bag. 

I have used the new delightful Butterfly Bijou papers, dies, the heart strip is from the floral heart dies and the curved edge was made by the god morning magnolia die set. I made a second one to layer card cut at 10.5 x 3.5cm 

I really enjoyed putting this one together and it is not at all difficult to make. 

The whole card uses 1 sheet of cardstock and some papers 

Cut the card 10.5cm x 29.5cm 

Score along long side at 9cm 12cm 15cm 24 cm and 26cm 

Burnish and fold ( see card photo ) 

Paper panels are cut at 10cm x 8.5cm x 2 

Inside panel I used white card 10cm by 10.7cm scored at 2cm 

Bag handle is 10cm x 1cm scored at 1cm and 2cm form each edge.






I will be making this card in one of my classes soon so please come and join me if you can. Further details for classes on my web page https://crafting-4-friends.stampinup.net/

Host code for March is 4SKFWNTB for orders under £150 and a small gift from myself to you. 

Until next time hugs and blessings
