OK are you ready for some MORE peeks!! I’m so excited!
I’m running so behind this week! Spent the day with the kids at Story Land yesterday. 3 hour drive due to traffic! YIKES! I thought the kids would make me crazy but it turned out to be my hubby complaining about the drive! LOL! Anyway, it was a gorgeous day! PERFECT! We had a blast!
OK down to buisness!
Some time ago (back in March) I posted this project—>Baby Bunny Basket
WOWZERS! Was I ever swamped with emails about HOW to make it!! Little did you know, I already had it planned for a template 😀 I did most of my templates about a year ago now!! I have sat on SO many of them for so long now!! It is SO hard! Every now and again I sneak a version in my regular posting 😀
I have over 2 more years worth done, so it can be hard to WAIT, and I often forget what I made! LOL!!! I do have a sample file, but every-time we decide what comes next, I am always surprised!! LOL!
Well, now I’d like to formally introduce you to Pretty Petal Pocket ©
About Pretty Petal Pocket ©:
You will love this “pocket” style template creation! Sweet and simple, but it looks so complicated with all the angles and curves! With the template you will be whipping up gifts in NO TIME! You can make it closed, leave it open, handle on, handle off! Its the perfect size. Petal center on, or leave it off. Many choices!
This pretty “pocket” was inspired by my very favorite flower, the tulip! That is how it received the name. I wanted to recreate the delicate and pretty layers! Like all the My Timeless Templates ©, the possibilities are endless! It doesn’t have to be all girly! Leave off the additional “petal” layer, and it becomes the sweetest “basket” or as I like to say here, “pocket” template! It can hold so many fabulous things! Weather use make it a “petal” or a “simple basket” style the receiver will be dying to pick this pocket!
I love the angles/curves it has, and the ability to transform the design every time!
This one was the “concept sample” since I design just the templates first, then I later make my actual “sample”. These are “quickies” that the design team get to see so that they know what the finished project looks like 😀
For this one I printed my template in pure poppy, then make the “tulip petal” from black and white basics, then colored it with my copic markers to match my project!
Shows you just how fast and easy it can be!
Supplies:
My Timeless Template: Pretty Petal Pocket
Stamps: NONE!
Cardstock:Pure poppy, Spring moss
Patterned Paper: B& W basics
ink: NONE! Just Copic markers
other: silver brad to hold closed 😀
Now comes the My Time to Create Color Challenge and another SAMPLE!!!
I *just got –>this<– Vera Bradley Bag! It is the Stephanie style, in the Carnable Collection! LOVE IT!
I hope you get a chance to join in the color challenge!
Post your creations HERE
It was so inspiring to me, that I had to make my newest Pretty Petal Pocket © template look *just* like it 😀
OK not JUST like it, but my fun and funky version! I have to say I am in HEAVEN with this “handbag”. You’d never think CARDSTOCK would you?
Look at the cool decor on the fun side panel! I could scream!
Check it out girls! REAL hardware to boot!
LOVE IT!
I feel like I’m cheating on my template because for this sample,I just used ribbon as my handles, and metal pieces I purchased at the craft store! Jewelry rings for the handbag rings, and an actual purse latch! HELLO! Love that!
ALL attached with cardstock! So cool.
My countdown post using In Bloom was a total TOSS UP!! I was going to post BOTH projects together, but didn’t want to overwhelm you! I LOVE this new stamp set! LOVE!
Close up-love the bling! I also love the colors!!! LOVE!
This used black Atyou glitter pen. Subtle yet stunning!
So I guess I KIND of strayed a little with my color-not too bad! LOL!
Another view
It’s just delicious
Here is my Amber holding the template handbag!!
(playing around with my camera! and Photoshop!)

Supplies:

Amber is so cute showing off that purse. At first I thought how cool your purse looked so much like Nichole’s set. Then reality woke me up. Duh! *smaking forehead*
wooowhee! Cuter and CUTER! Love all the hardware on your challenge purse!

WOW! That purse it too die for. Love this stamp set too…
Wow, Lauren this is *amazing*!!! I *love* that bag! I can see I’m going to have to watch your Etsy shop like a hawk, lol!
Hands down this is probably the best template ever. It is so cute and I have a little girl who saw this and loved it so it is a must have. Just amazing how you keep coming up with such great templates. Keep up the good work!
Wow, is this ever fun! How do you manage to top yourself every month? And two years worth in advance? Wow! How did you manage to pull it out of Amber’s hands to put it in your Etsy shop? Better make one for BOTH girls now! TFS!
Beautiful templates Lauren! love the purse template and your little girl looks so beautiful in that picture. I am sure this template will be a hit. I will be getting one soon!
You are completely amazing! Where do you come up with this stuff…it is totally awesome! You inspire me daily!
Thanks for sharing 🙂
Awesome! That’s all i can say … 🙂
OMG Lauren SO stinkin cute – I know what I want for my next template (S)!!! You are so amazing girl – just love you and your work. Have a great weekend.
OMG this is crazy cute! Amber is such a beautiful model! I have to tell you when I saw the first picture I thought you were going to say that this purse was your inspiration for the template! It totally looks like a “real” purse.
What an awesome purse! Your models are always top notch too. :o)
I LOVE it!! 😀
OK, I loved the milk carton idea, but then I saw Amber with that purse! That is absolutely fantastic. What a great idea – can you imagine buying little Bonne Bell lipsmackers and putting treats in it for a girl’s birthday?! Plus it looks storebought. You need your own store ….
Oh wow…I don’t know how you manage to come up with these new designs every month, but I’m happy you do! The Pretty Petal Pocket is so adorable! OMG…and your little Amber modeling it totally sold the whole design 🙂 This is gorgeous! I love the first purse also with the petal added. So elegant…but the hardware on the second really gives it that something extra.
You continue to amaze me 🙂
Love this template! I have 4 little grandkids that would really like such a darling little purse! Amber is the perfect model–she looks just adorable!!
I have been a fan of yours ever since my friend Laurie over at Stamping with Annie B turned me onto your Timeless Templates. I actually have a problem/addiction with your templates- you are AMAZING!! But now you have the Vera Bradley I am waiting patiently (ok- not really) to buy- I LOVE the Stephanie and the Carnaby fabric is HOT!!!

Both are so pretty! She looks really happy 😉 !!!!!!!
Wow! another great template. I’ll be getting this one to make up for my daughter’s birthday at the end of this month. She loves purses and this will be so cute for her to display.
