My Sister's Birthday

Yesterday was my sister's birthday and I gave her a couple of gifts but decided to make her an extra one. This is a card holder handbag. It has 4 cards plus envelopes, a notepad, a pencil, and the front pocket houses a book of postage stamps.

The bag without the contents

The cards inside - the white is the envelopes behind

the notepad, stamps and pencil - sorry that it's blurry!

Then I had to make a card too, so I used the same "Bliss" stamp set and added a few more things.

and I couldn't resist a half-backed pearl to finish it off.......I think all of us girls at work cleared the stock of these! Ha ha

Well, she seemed to love this gift, she is going to make me an aunty again soon, so she hasn't had much time to make cards for people......this will give her a helping hand.

I have been asked for the instructions on making the little rose on my card....I followed a youtube clip so here's the link!
