A QUICK FUN PROJECT!

I needed a way to carry some new business cards I made and Roy suggested I make a card purse out of painted fabric! He is a gem, always seems to find the answer when my brain is clogged up with other stuff. So, I printed off new cards, attached some painted fabric scraps to the backs and included some blue dots on the front (Tulip Pearl Dimensional Paint). The little card purse is closed with Velcro and has a decorative embellishment on the flap. Yes, the back side of an old watch face. How fun is that?

You've been busy! Belatedly - sometime late in the day yesterday - it crossed my mental horizon that I hadn't heard (interesting choice of verb, eh?) from you. No wonder - this new project, purse prototypes, pottery (pottery purses maybe, no I don't think so), toolkit (bet there would be a market for those too - or for DIY instructions).

Your clutches are a new approach on the popular "purselet" - or purse to carry in your purse, but the card purse is even more of an original. What about designing one a man would not mind being caught dead carrying? And that would meet your aesthetic and interesrtingness standards...

Good idea, the man's really cool card carrier. I have no idea where one would find such brave men....
