Got this from Voy forum and wanted to share.. I can just see this with pictures of the grandbabies on custom ball cards think I have a program that does that or did at one time... Will post pictures when I get the card purse done.

Good projects for using those Christmas cards that you just don't want to throw away. I can see making it look like a quilt, with ribbon in between the rows and different sized cards.

I had no idea Carding Mill was so beautiful!

I think we can safely blame(or actually thank) the fall weather for Carding Mill’s giant globe. Many of my blooms are looking different from the norm right now. Below is one of my potted Cream Verandas. It’s normally very peach or cream for me. I just looked at it, and it’s WAY pinker than what I usually get. I like it. It’s just about dark, so I hope you can still see the colors. I know Yves Paignet always has large frilly blooms, but mine are WAY larger than normal. These things are HUGE! I hope Carding Mill will give me a few more of those incredible globes before the spring flush. Lisa

I made the purse using a homemade baseball card template and used daughters wedding pictures on it.. I could not get a good picture of it... She loved it and even used it the minute she got it...
I did lace the corners instead of taping them and I also used a cloth handle. I made two like the directions said and I was not happy with the corners taped.. I made a card one and an old maid card one to carry crayons and color book and flash cards for grandbabies. I am working on another one now of pictures of the grandboys...
