this week. I had an unexpected visit from my mother (who currently lives overseas) and is staying with us for two weeks. It’s lovely to see her and, as this visit coincides with her birthday today, tonight we’re going out for a meal and a chance to set work aside and just relax.
I did manage to do some work this week though – I’ve been working on some handbag cards. I haven’t done any of these for a while and I had forgotten how lovely they turn out. No two are alike and most of the time I make these to commission and are made specifically for the recipient, but these ones I made just because. One is made using a gorgeous yellow paper with deco roses and the other with Kozo paper, my favourite paper medium at the moment.
These cards comprise of a little bi-fold card to write your message on, a handbag-shaped envelope to put your card and a paper gift (money or vouchers) in and a matching box. They’re something just a little different and special. To see more of the handbag cards I’ve made in the past, click here.
