Timeless Template Guest Designer Contest

I made this Purse-onality Clutch using Lauren's TimelessTemplate for the Guest Designer Contest that Nichole ran over at Papertrey Ink. You had to make a project using one of Lauren's templates. The cute umbrella and sentiment are from the set Scattered Showers.

ETA: I didn't win the contest - but I did make honorable mention top trio!! whoo hoo!!

I made this as a Get Well gift for someone. I included a little banana nut bread to help cheer up the receiver. I stamped get well and feel better from Mega Mixed Messages - punched them out and attached them inside the cover to be seen when the person opened the little purse.

Isn't this just the cutest little thing??!!

Inside the little purse there was plenty of room to tuck this package of kleenex, a chapstick and a beribboned envelope of cough drops. I made a bellyband to wrap around the bread.

This project also qualifies for the Doubledog Dare Challengethat Fran issued this week - to make a card or project with something having to do with rain or water on it. We'd love to have you join in our Doubledog challenges - just put DDC in your keyword when you post to your SCS gallery. You can see all the DDC challenge cards here.

Wish me luck on winning the contest! The deadline to submit was 5/13. The winner gets to make samples using the next two Timeless Templates before they are released and gets published on Nicholes blog! Whoo hoo!!!
