Graphic 45 Mini Purse Tutorial

Hello paper crafting friends! Today I have a fun Mini Purse tutorial for you! This mini purse can be used to package handmade note-cards, chocolate candy, party favors and other goodies that you can think of.

Mini Purse

This beautiful mini purse was created using Graphic 45 tags, papers, chipboard, rose embellishments and dies from Graphic 45.

The purse stands at approximately 5″ with the handles, and it’s 4 1/2″ on the front and back, and 2 1/8″ in width on the sides.

The inside of this Graphic 45 Mini Purse holds a set of four, 3 x 3 1/2 note cards and envelopes (perfect for gift giving); and it can easily hold a set of eight.

I decided to leave the embellishments to a minimum on the back of my Graphic 45 Mini Purse.

Cutting and Scoring Guide (in inches)

  • Base:  6 3/4 x 4 3/4  then Score all sides at 1 3/8
  • Graphic 45 Square Tag: Score at 3 1/2 then fold
  • Tag inserts: Hold horizontally and trim off the part with the hole at 3 1/4
  • Remainder of tag inserts: Trim off approx. 1/8th of an inch
  • Straps: 6×1 (if you plan to use a paper punch like I’ve done with mine. If not, then 6 x 3/8th)
  • Note Cards (optional not shown): 6 x 3 1/2 then hold horizontally and score at 3″ and fold card in half.
