A little purse and a gift box

I recently visited a blog called Thinking Stamps.. On there Sarah had a cute little purse in a handmade giftbox. Click HERE to visit.  I found this very inspiring. I decided to design my own little purse. I wanted a quick easy pattern.. So I drew it up and have made two in two days.

This afternoon I decided to make the giftbox. I am delighted with both of the finished products. You can guess what will be in the Christmas Stocking for my friends and family this year carn't you?

Cute little purse, I have put tissue into it but it could be a lipstick purse or a coin purse. It is made from a fabric from Quiltgate.

The gift box

. Stamps are from Stampin up. I have used a vellum for the sleeve.. the box is inside with the purse wrapped in tissue. I think I am addicted. I just LOVED making these little purses and box.

Oh and how could I forget

My Owl made from the pattern from HERE. I just haven't sewn down the wings and he was made in a rush as well. I just had to get my sewing fix a few days ago and decided to make it. They are very quick and fun to make.
