Aren't these cute?
These adorable purse cards would make great place cards at luncheons, parties, baby and wedding showers. I can see them as door hangers for children's bedrooms. They would also be really useful in the classroom to hang on students' desks. (You could modify the blue ones into wallets for the boys.)
I have two nieces who are going to be new mothers this summer. Wouldn't these make adorable baby announcements?

Here's a quick tutorial on how to make these adorable Purse-Cards.
1. Print your Purse Card templates on cardstock and gather supplies.
(Recommended supplies: small craft scissors, bone folder, 8-12" of
ribbon, stapler, tape or velcro)
TIP: To print your information on the inside create another page with the template in place. Put all your text and embellishments in (leaving a little room on the edges) and then remove the template right before exporting or printing the inside page on the back of the first. This will keep from having to worry about if the templates line up exactly when cutting out your card.
