Happy place

Omgoodness I can't tell you how exciting it is to go out shopping with a little handbag that I decorated all by myself.  I"m more surprised by how many people actually notice it.  I think what I like most is the fact that it's "one of a kind",  it's unique to me and no one will have the same bag unless I part with mine. And well I don't think that will happen.  Well....maybe. Here's my latest Valentine design for Z Becky Brown.

If you want to see my gallery of inserts for the Z Becky Brown handbags stop on over to my gallery here.

Tip or Trick: I ran out of letters in "happy" so I nabbed a lighter colour (grey) letter and used my red copic to cover the grey and match it to the rest of the letters.

Materials
Hand bag- My White Knight- Z Becky Brown
White inserts- Ziva Papers- Z Becky Brown

Winter Magic Handbag

This month's challenge is Winter for us Ziva's so I thought with all the Holiday parties to go to I should make something a festive with a touch of elegance. This is what I came up with (based on a gorgeous card on Pinterest)

I used the Z Becky Brown's handbag My White Night and Ziva papers Natural White

 I used Platinum Stickles to paint the Veneer Stars. Here's a close up

I extended the background all the way around the insert. So the handbag is decorated on all 4 sides.

 Then I die cut the poinsettia and hot glued it to a ribbon and tied it to the handle.

Materials

• Paper: Natural White: Ziva Papers, Vintage Cream and Kraft-PTI
• Fabric: Felt-red and green
• Accessories: Dies-Poinsettia: Spellbinders, Sentiment and landscape: Memory Box, Platinum Glitter:Stickles, Veneer Stars: Studio Calico

I'm a ZIVA!!

I've been keeping this a secrete for a very long time and now it's time to let the cat out of the purse!! hehehe

I'm officially a ZIVA.  Yep I'm a design team member for Z Becky Brown handbags.  Eeeeek!! Can this get any cooler?? I finally have a handbag that matches EVERYTHING!  All I have to do is swap out the inserts for something that matches.  Fabric, cardstock, copics or paint and anything else you can think of.  I have a bunch to share with you and I hope you like them very much.

For my very first assignment I created a purse insert that would remind me to be happy. One of my favorite quotes is "She creates her own sunshine" so I used it for the bases of this handbag.

I used the "White Night" handbag with nickel hardware and the smooth white handle.
