When I'm in the mood, I love making these purses and keeping them handy. They perfectly fit a handful of A2 cards but I often use them when I need a gift bag that size. \I keep them plain (so that they're suitable for any occasion), but then they can look a little too plain and in need of a little decorating. The Country Birdhouse bundle of stamps and dies are retiring later this month (technically May 4th 2025) and this was a great excuse to pull it out and make a little something fun with it.

I used the Country Woods DSP for the birdhouse roof and base, with Boho Blue as the scalloped edge and bird card stock colors. Here's the paper purse and I got the directions from this site: https://embellishwithlyssa.com/one-sheet-total-tote-bag-video-tutorial-easiest-most-economical-ever/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+typepad%2FrmCl+%28Song+of+My+Heart+Stampers%29/ Doesn't it look adorable even plain?? But look at it WITH the birdhouse tag!!

What do you think...? Did the tag "make" the gift bag/purse or not??
Thanks for stopping by...have an awesome day!
