Double D - HANDLES

 Dear Ones~
This time over at Double D the theme is "HANDLES".  Isn't that interesting? It's a good thing we have this Mood Board for inspiration or I would have been stymied.  But now it all becomes clear.
Here is what I came up with:
As you can see, I took my inspiration from the photo in the lower right corner.  I'm tellin' ya, I had so much FUN making these little purses. There's a TON of YouTube videos out there to show how to make a myriad of different styles. I couldn't stop making them. The papers are from Stampin' Up. Patterned Paper is Flower and Field DSP and yellow card stock is Crushed Curry. I used punches from Paper Studio, Recollections and Martha Stewart for the little flowers and leaves, and for the border elements. The big layered daisy die is from Papertrey Ink, but I think it's retired because I can't find it on their sight. The pretty bow die is from The Greetery and is called Fit to be Tied. 
Baubles and brads are from my stash.






Here is the YouTube link for this style. It's by May May and uses one sheet of 12"x12" paper.










 
 
 
This little guy is another May May design. It's a miniatuare of the one above and uses a sheet of 6"x6" paper. You can watch the video HERE.







 
 
 
 
 This one was designed by Angelina from Intertwyne Designs. It was a little more involved. You can watch her video HERE.





 
 
 
 
 
 And finally, this one was designed by Julie at The Paper Pixie and again uses a 12"x12" piece of paper. You can see her video HERE.







If you head on over to the  Double D Challenge Blog and play along, you could win this adorable die from Impression Obsession, and don't forget to check out all the beautiful cards the other designers have created. 
 
As I write this Ukraine is STILL under seige. It so saddens me that people can't live in peace and just get along. If you are the praying kind, Dear Reader, may I ask you to lift one up for those in harm's way.  And don't forget to swing on over to the Double D Challenge and check it out. There's lots of inspiration to be had there.

Until next time, here's celebrating your Creative Muse!!
