    What a cute idea! and thank you, Becca, for the tutorial on how to make it. I can see a lot of those as treat bags maybe at Halloween. One of my DD is getting married in Oct. I think that would be adorable to put a little gift for the attendents in. Thanks for the frugal tip also.ReplyCancel

  • SusanJuly 13, 2011 - 10:42 pm

    Becca — you are absolutely amazing. I love it when you think of different uses for Spellbinders dies. If you haven’t sent this into the company yet, I think you should do so right away! I would have only thought of flower pots and decided that I probably wouldn’t use the die too much. You have certainly convinced me otherwise.
    I love your frugal tip about the file folders too. I haven’t ever seen them in Canada at that price, but I’ll keep looking!ReplyCancel

  • Linda FJuly 13, 2011 - 10:58 pm

    How simple and so sweet! I rushed to the Spellbinders site but I guess they haven’t been released yet. You tease!! LOL I haven’t seen any of those handy little sacks here in Australia either, guess I will have to try to get some from the States by mail. Wish me luck, they would make lovely gift bags for small Christmas trinkets. Thanks for the inspiration.ReplyCancel

    Oh Becca, I’m so glad you did a tutorial for this little purse. It is sooo cute, and there are a thousand ways I could use a little purse gift bag. You could even put some small note/enclosure cards in there to match. You are amazing. I would have never – and I mean NEVER – thought of making a cute purse from that flower pot template. Once again, I have to crown you the paper genius!!!ReplyCancel

    So, Becca… When are you going to show us how to use these great file folders for boxes?? I am SO visual – needless to say following written instructions (or far worse having to imagine it) is beyond me. I’ll keep an eye out for that tut. Thanks for sharing all of your wonderful creations!!ReplyCancel

    Absolutely loved the video and the tip for using those $1 bin file folders. Your creativity inspires me; Thank you for sharing.ReplyCancel

  • ColleenJuly 14, 2011 - 8:19 am

    What a great idea. But…I go to spellbinders.com – can’t find a flower pot die. I go to Michaels.com can’t find paper bags or file folders. Where in the world do you get the die? My Michaels, Joanns and Hobby Lobby have absolutely NO stock on these dies. What they do have is old ones. Never seem to get the new things. HELP!!! If spellbinders doesn’t have it on their website where do you get it? I get so frustrated when I see all these wonderful ideas that a lot of you crafters show and then I can’t find the items to make it. Again…HELP.
    Thanks…guess I just had to vent. :)ReplyCancel

    I am so blown away by the way your mind works. How in the world did you ever come up with such an idea to make a bag. I only wish I had 100th of the creativity you have in just your little finger. You amaze me and I adore your work always.ReplyCancel

  • Anne McIntoshJuly 14, 2011 - 4:03 pm

    Becca you’ve wowed me once again. Finally a die that makes a purse big enough to put something in (besides one piece of chocolate). Another Spellbinders die I HAVE to get. Between Spellbinders and Quietfire, my craft budget (what budget!?) will certainly be exceeded. Thank you so very much for sharing your talent with us less creative creatures!ReplyCancel

  • dianeJuly 14, 2011 - 4:16 pm

    Hi Becca, I am at a loss of words , I cant wait to get my new dies , I have already put in ordrers on 18 new ones so far, and keep adding as they are shown. You are awesome, and I want to make the purses for my little girls birthday party so bad.
    God Bless, DianeReplyCancel

    Becca, you are so right…what a great little gift bag. You have come up with such a versatile idea for that die…I LOVE it! There is no other blog that I get as much inspiration from as I do yours! :-)ReplyCancel

  • Diane C.July 27, 2011 - 1:26 pm

    Hello Becca,
    I have learned so much from you. When you look at a die, or packaging in the $1 bin, how on earth do you match them together, and figure out how to make them work by adding gussets? How do you do that? I never get those “Aha” moments. It’s just mind boggling, simply amazing, “Amazing Paper Grace”, a perfect name.
    Hugs to you Becca!ReplyCancel
