Hi Everyone,
Welcome to my Blog! I no i have not posted for ages but i have not had time to be honest. I am really busy with Design Team Stuff and personal things. My health is also not good at the minute :-( I am very anaemic and have got to go and have a Endoscopy tomorrow. I will keep you all posted on the out come.
I have had this clutch bag idea going round in my head for a few days now. I new what i wanted it to look like and i can say that i am really happy with the finished item! I wanted it to look pretty realistic and also very elegant and pretty! I love it and i think it would be great for Bridesmaid gifts etc. I hope you like it and will give it a go. It really is pretty simple to make and you can have so much fun designing it in different colours etc.
I thought it would be a good idea to put a sweet little 'mirror' inside and also a pocket. You could maybe pop a Gift card in the pocket. I also attached a couple of cute charms to the side of the purse. The front and back of the clutch were embossed using an embossing folder and then i used liquid pearls to cover the 'gaps' in the E/F. The silver foil card on the sides gives it a realistic metal effect.
