Here is the outcome!  I would love to know what you think…leave me a comment! Enjoy!

Treat Holder & Purse/Tote all in one!

Author: July 8, 2008 0 Comments

Ok, so I’ve been playing around with different ideas lately and I LOVE Goodie Bags, Purses etc…I’m sure you couldn’t tell! LOL!  Anyway, I was inspired by another Tote that I saw but wanted something smaller.  I know that there are many versions out there but here is mine. What I liked about this one is that you get 2 different looks with 1 pattern! I will be making these for A Hostess Swap that I am in for Convention 2008!! WOO HOO!  Now to see how many note cards fit in the purse….OR Chocolate! YUMMY!!!  I’m sure I’ll make extra for 3D swaps too! Would LOVE to know what you think! Hope you like it!



Mini Tote & Treat Holder


 What I used:


DSP – Cutie Pie (LOVE this)
Boho Punch, P. Pomegranate Ribbon and Brads


I will post a tutorial/pattern for this soon need to get dinner started, so stay tuned!


Happy Stampin’,
