Timeless Elegance Designer Series Paper Card Set

I've seen a number of cards made using the brand new Timeless Elegance Designer Series Paper and love them all.  This paper is SO vintage and beautiful!  

Karen H., my good friend and downline, sent me a beautiful card I shared here and she sponged the flowers – so…..I just had to try this and I'm SO happy with the way they turned out.

These cards and Bag in a Box purse are the hostess gifts for my clubs this month.  What a fun gift to give!  I would call it Vintage Chic!!

I made six cards using ONE piece of the Timeless Elegance DSP.  Of course I used the one with all the roses.  I cut it into six pieces 5 1/4" x 4".  I then sponged each piece using different colors and coordinated the card base with the colors I used for sponging.  

And then I made the purse!  You can find instructions for this purse here.

I did change the measurements just a wee bit – made the "box" a bit narrower

The measurements for the box are 7" x 2".  Cut a piece of card stock 9" x 4" and follow the directions in the tutorial

The DSP for the box are the same 10" x 6"

I decreased the size of the Basic Black bottom and top pieces to 3/4" 

The handles are 11" x 3/4" and I added some DSP cut 11" x 1/2" to the handles

I added some Basic Rhinestones to the Candy Dot Brad Bases for the handles – just a little bling!!

The cards bases are 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"  

2nd layer is Basic Black cut 5 3/8" x 4 1/8"

DSP Layer is 5 1/4" x 4"

I sponged the flowers ( you don't have to be really precise – you CAN go out of the lines!!)

Then added a sentiment!

Really a simple, but VERY elegant set of cards!!

As always, let me know if you have ANY questions!!  I'm happy to help in any way
