CHECK THIS OUT for inspiration.

I got this idea from a SB member who created a cute Girly Type Themed Matchbox and filled with the neatest and cutest little girly things. See It Here

I'd like to join the swap. Where do you find a template for the purse?

beadeful 09/24/2009 #

There's no real template @peppermintpatti9295 you'll have to use your imagination and creativity on that part. Check out the purse at the link I posted in the swap to grab an idea. You can also check them out on flickr for ideas as well.

Just might have to join this one :)

Try this template to make your purse - you would just have to add a handle

Very cute, on my watch.....................

@djmom11 sorry I will add that in. Yes it is 32ct. Thanks for the question.

I hope everyone can join. I did a suitcase and it was a wonderful success. Who know's, may do another in the future.

Thanks @beadeful I am watching for now, but I think this is cool and the link to the examples were so adorable.

I hope that we can get mass participation on this one. This is so exciting, I can't wait to see what we all (and I) can come up with. Thanks to all who have joined so far.

I made my purse and it was so much fun. I might have to do another one. It's amazing how much you can fit into that tiny little matchbox. This is addicting, in a good way of course. :-)
