This is sooo sweet and EASY!

Here is a super cute project that came from Splitcoast Stampers last week. (Scroll down the page a bit till you see, under "Latest News", Wednesday Tutorial - Faux Leather Wallet). Its an adorable mini wallet that's the perfect size for a gift card, plus an extra little treat! Chloe's going to a party today and they're now at the age where they enjoy receiving a gift card so they can go to the mall and shop for themselves. So I went and picked up a giftcard from Claire's, plus a bottle of sassy nail polish and tucked them inside this cute wallet. The wallet itself is made of cardstock, which is dry embossed, then wet embossed. The result? It almost feels like patent leather! The original was dry embossed with a snakeskin type embossing folder, but I didn't have one like that, plus I liked flowers - after all, they are still little girls! Check out the link, it really is a quick, easy and sweet project!
