Here’s my project, a Shopping bag/book using the Leerè Aldrich collection.

I had great fun creating this one. The stamps are just so fun, easy and quick to color!

Before I got started I asked myself what does EVERY woman need?

A handbag, right It should be a handy size and fancy looking.

We also need a credit card to go with it, and what does every crafting woman need? You all know this…stamps, papers, die cuts, embellishments…the list is always pretty endless LOL as we always NEED something to add to our crafting stash.

Now what if the credit card says NO for this month and we need to be patient, but we’ve seen so many of those MUST HAVES…..then we need a notepad to write everything down so that as soon as the credit card says GO again, we don’t waste any time searching for all of those items again.

So I thought why not combine it all? and VOILA…may I present you my shopping bag/book.

Made out of 1/8″ thick card board and covered with We R Memorykeepers Tiffany papers, lots of bling, the unlimited credit card (I wish I had one) and of course the Leerè Shopping Girl!

Inside I’ve got the ring binder mounted and 3 different colours of note cards. If you really want to have your wish list organized, then you could add tabbed dividers and separate categories like “papers” then “stamps” etc.

DH stated that this purse was a cheaper solution than all those designer hand bags out there. (*grin*) if only he knew about all of the secrets the bag is going to hold inside
