Description:

I found this cute paper purse template and thought it would make a great swap project!

You can get the template here

For this swap, you will have 1 partner to which you will create 1 purse for them. These can be covered in fabric, embellished, painted, stamped, glittered, etc.. but must be your own creation.

You can tuck a small surprise in the purse as well, but your rating should reflect the quality of effort into the purse you received, not the extras.

These fold down flat when they're fully constructed so they should be mailed easily.

I've made this swap regional to Canada as the Canadians don't get many regional swaps!

This swap is for serious swappers only. If you are not sure you can commit to a quality production for this swap, please don't join. I will be checking profiles. Those with a 5 rating only need join please.

Newbies welcomed.

Is there a suggested size that we should make these? The pattern is scalable...

I've done this template at 200 and 300% and they're a nice size if you want to be able to stick some little surprise inside. They'll still fit in an envie as well, so postage won't be more.

How about we leave it as senders choice??

Just a note as well.. you may want to do a practice run with the template first with recycled paper as you may need to tweak the size or fold lines.. I've found this in the past...
