- Cut all Purse parts. Distress tan portions with Toffee Crunch ink and add stitching accents with Peanut Brittle marker. Add stitching accents to dotted pattern with Summer Sky marker. Assemble, using brads in holes to align elements and gluing where appropriate. On the bottom, send brads up into the inside as shown below (upper right photo in collage).
- Die cut tag. Stamp sentiment. Distress and add Tear Drop Rhinestones. Be careful to place your adhesive only on the purse closure, so that the purse can be opened and closed.
