I've always been a crafty person, or a "Becky Home-ecky." I love to cook, bake, sew, crochet, and scrapbook. See my various creations here.

Photo Purses

Two days ago I talked about one person I met at Founder's Circle last year. This is another project from a friend I made. To learn more about how YOU can earn an absolutely FREE trip full of Stampin' Fun, ask me!

Anyway, this project is from Frenchie. You can visit her video tutorial here. In January she posted a video tutorial of a cute photo purse on www.stampinconnection.com. This is a Stampin' Up! demonstrator only website full of ideas, pictures, and forums. Just one of the many perks of being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator!.

On with the craft! These purses are made from chocolate chip and whisper white paper. You can find all the demensions and scoring information through Frenchie's video link above. We finished the tops with eyelets and the beautiful Organza Ribbon.


We used the Greenhouse Gala DSP for the accent papers. You can put as many pieces you want, or can cover every little bit in pictures! For my son's purse, I used Pear Pizzazz and Pumpkin Pie mats under the three main pictures.


I had some time with just my daughter, Anna, and decided to craft with her. She's only 6, but is on her way to being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator already. She loves to craft with me, and is rather good. I did the measuring and folding, but she cut her own paper and glued it all down. She picked out the stamp set for her cover, and colored that as well! If she can do it, you can too!


Now that you've seen these cute photo purses, want to make your own? I would be happy to teach you and your friends in a class! Contact me to schedule when works for you! Or click here if you are interested in purchasing any of these products!
