Candy Purses

As promised, here are a few photos to show you how I put together the Top Note Candy Purses I showed HERE.


Die cut the Top Note with the Big Shot. Place it in the paper cutter with a scoring blade. The middle points of the Top Note are lined up with the outside of the paper cutter OR at approximately 1-1/4".


Die cut a piece of Designer Series Paper with the Top Note and cut it off to fit just under the score line. Trim on the perforated line so it fits inside.


Punch two holes for the handle on the back side of the score line. Cut ribbon to about 8' long. Place one end through each hole and secure to the top of the Top Note with a Mini Glue Dot.


Small flat cello bags from Stampin' Up! trimmed to about 3-3/4" long. Put the candy in the bag, fold the bag over about 3/4" - 1" until the bag is level with the bottom of the purse. Fold on the score line and staple closed.


Cover the staple with an embellishment.

Becky....can you tell me what you used to punch the slits? I tried with my slit punch but it doesn't reach in so I'm figuring you must have used something else? Thanks for the tutorial. Very cute. Oh, and congrats on reaching your Senior Associate! Woo Hoo! Looks like somebody's gonna have a great Christmas! LOL
