With temperatures climbing into the 90’s today, I thought a pop up penguin card was appropriate! Think cool on this very warm day. I made this card with a stamp set and die set from Pink and Main. I colored the images with alcohol markers.

This little handbag is the perfect gift bag and is made out of 12 inches x 12 inches card stock. Using a 12 inch square double sided card stock score down at 1/2 inch, 4 1/2 inches, 7 1/2 inches and 11 1/2 inches and fold on all score lines. Rotate the card stock 90 degrees and score at 3 3/4 inches and 8 1/4 inches. Fold on all the score lines. Turn 90 degrees and cut along the two vertical lines up to the first horizontal line. Turn the square and repeat for the other side. Fold up the two center pieces and fit and stick the outer pieces to create the box. Fold down along the scored tabs and stick down. Cut a 3 inches by 7 inches rectangle from the card stock and score at 3 inches and 5 inches. This piece will be the clasp. Shape the corners of the front of the clasp and valley fold on the score lines. Fit and mate the clasp onto the base of the handbag. Cut two strip of 1/2 inches x 11 inches from the paper to create the handles. Attach the handle to each corner with brads. Add a magnet to the front of the bag and underneath the clasp to create the closure. I decorated mine with a rose. What do you think of the handbag?
