Backpack

I quite like fiddling around making little things like this, so I'm really grateful to the Just Us Girls Challenge for throwing a template challenge into the mix.
I got the tutorial from Splitcoast Stampers here, and printed the template onto the back of  a piece of card which I had previously printed with a Cuttlebug Spotty digi paper.
The tutorial called for magnetic clasps, but not having any of those, I used small Velcro circles as the fastenings for mine.
I'm not quite sure what I would use it for, but I think it's cute. (It's 10cms tall and about 7.5 cms wide!)

    Oh this is brilliant. You could put sweets in it, maybe chocolate drops, and give it as a stocking filler :o)

    It's really fun - a great way to deliver a teacher gift or some such. You are terribly patient and clever you know.
