Miniature Suitcase

I found this fab little suitcase template at Mirkwood designs... it's totally cute.  Small but fun and I would imagine you could enlarge the template to make different sizes to stack if you spent a little time. There are so many fab template on this site that you will be spoiled for choice... check it out!!
I used stamped onto my card and clear embossed before colouring with distress ink.  I love the resist effect when you remove the ink from the embossed images.
I did the same for the straps but on paper so the effect is a little different and so is the colour of the ink due to the different porosity.

The handle is made by threading fibres through punched holes.
I used the punched out pieces to add little studs by sticking them to punched out sticky pads and colouring with silver ink.
I think it would be a cool place to keep cuff links or loose change for a guy eh.
Now just check out that shine.... Tim Holtz rock candy crackle.... ooooh how cool is that stuff!!
Thanks for looking... catchya later :D
