Let me show you one of the projects that we'll be making at the "Sugar & Spice" stamp camp on Friday January 26. We'll be making 3 cards, another mystery "project" plus this mini "purse" with 4 matching cards.



The 4 mini cards inside use nothing but the die-cut adhesive pieces from the "Sweet Nothings" Accents & Elements tin from the Winter mini catalogue. Oh wait, that's not true. I did use one stamp from the "Sincere Salutations" set as well in Certainly Celery, but you get the picture. The body of the "purse" is a small clear stamp case (like the ones your stamps come in). These are sold as "Stamp & Supply Boxes" in the current Idea Book & Catalogue, and come in a variety of sizes.

Here it is with the purse open, so you can see how the mini cards just nest inside.



I first got the idea for this little cutie when I was on Stampin' Up!'s incentive cruise last year (click here for pictures). The original purse set used a "Simply Scrappin" kit and looked so cute, I couldn't wait to try it myself!

If you are coming to my SAB Open House tonight or tomorrow, you can see it in person, as well as over 100 new card samples plus 2 Make & Take's for you to stamp! If you live in the GTA and would like to come, please RSVP. I'd love to see you!
