Easy Purse Papercraft Favor

Hello Creative Friends,
Sharing today an easy craft for favors for your ladies meetings.  I love this one because it doesn’t require a lot of paper-crafting tools that you may not have.  These are little purses that are perfect to hold lip balms.  They are made from a template from Milkwood Designs.  Be sure to use the template link that says “Adobe Acrobat” on their site so that you get the full size one.

Important Step:  When you print it out, print it at 75% of actual size in order to get the cute little size like I’ve done in the photo.  If you don’t know how to do that — when your print screen comes up, choose the “custom” option and set the scaling size to 75%.

For these you just cut out the template, score the lines, fold up and embellish.  For my flower embellishment, I used a 1 and  1/4 inch round punch,  just cut little slits around the edges, and attached a stick on gem.  I placed in Nivea lip balms with glue dots.  To close them I also just used a glue dot.

These don’t take a lot of card-stock so I used some card-stock and heavier weight designer paper I had in my leftovers.  Finished size is approximately 2 and 3/4 inches tall and 3 and 3/4 inches at the widest part (bottom) in width.
