Whimsical Wednesday's Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Whimsical Wednesday's Grand Opening Blog Hop! So glad you could join us. You should have arrived from the super talented Nanne's blog. If you just happen to stop by to say hello you can just start at the beginning of the hop by clicking here.

 I made this for my "BEST FRIEND". We have been friends for over 20 years and she is turning the "BIG 40" in May. I thought this would be cute, fun and still use BLACK but not make it so dreadful!
So I cut the purse with chipboard ( I wanted it to be sturdy) at 5 1/4 and then cut the Stampin Up paper to cover at the same size for a more decorative look. I wanted  to put something to emphasize her birthday so I made little paper lollipops. I covered the white lollipop sticks with some ribbon. I cut the lollipop shapes from Accent Essentials in 3 different sizes. I ran 2 of the sizes thru my Zyron so I could add the glitter for a little bling. I LOVE that little machine! I also put floral foam in the inside so the sticks will be sturdy. Added a little glitter, ribbon, some wire and some paper from my scraps for a filler.
I made a coordinating card that slips inside the purse!

The materials I used is as follows;
Cartridges: Tags,Bags,Boxes and More, Accent Essentials, Wild Card, Storybook
Stamps: Papertrey Ink~ Around and About Sentiments & Birthday Bash
Paper: Stampin Up, Papertrey Ink and Black Chipboard
Extras: Martha Stewart Glitter, Memento Black, Inkseentials Enamel Accents, ribbon, lollipop sticks and wire
 
So for my blog candy I will be giving away some of the products I used to make my project.
Xyron 5" Creative Station (510)
Inkssentials Enamel Accents pack (black and white)
Martha Stewart 3 pack glitter and glue( onyx, sterling, hematite)
