Handbag card

Very cute! :-) Linda

That is really cute! I really like the hand stitching. We did faux stitching on a card at stamp camp last night. But I really like your hand stitching better I think...more personal.

Very cute! What a nice gift! Barb:o)

Very cute! Did you have pictures of the inside? Just curious.

Neat handbag card, Klara! I also loved the rest of the cards in your album. Where do you find the outline stickers? I have searched for these both in stores and online, with no luck. Are they a Europe only product? I especially like the transparent lily card. I bet it's beautiful with the light behind it.

Hello Mel,

I live in the UK and the outline (or peel-off) stickers have been around for about two years - cardmaking is the main craft in the UK (with scrapbooking just beginning to take on). They are plentiful here and they come in many colours, but silver and gold are most popular. Some of them come in polished mirror finish and some are a little raised for 3D effect. You can even change the colour of them by permanent markers - as I have done here:

How cute. I love the stitching around the edges. Thanks for sharing.

Klara, Thanks very much for the info. I've never seen these in the US. There is a somewhat similar product here called Class A'Peels, by Stampendous, but they don't sell online either, and they are very hard to find in the stores. They have totally different designs. I would love to get together with you to get a few of these stickers. I'll be glad to send an international money order, or if you prefer, we can trade if there's something here you can't find over there. Email me at kristara at comcast dot net if you like. I have the Glaze pens, and I love them. You can create a stunning effect by coloring in an outline ( I use stamps ) then filling the glaze with transparent glitter while it's still wet. This looks best on a transparency or on pale colored (or white) vellum, but does pretty good on plain old cardstock. It's a very versatile pen!

Very cute card Klara. The pouch is a great idea too. Thanks for sharing.
