1. Assemble the purse box according to the directions. Paint the sides and bottom orange and let dry.
2. Cover the front, back, flap and handle with the orange plaid paper and trim excess paper from around purse edges. Use the knife to re-cut the slit for the handle at the top of the flap, and to trim around the handle. Cut 1/4”-wide strips of stripped paper and glue near the bottom edge of the purse front and back.
3. For the flower: Trace the Pillow Twist shape onto the back of the orange textured paper and cut out. Fold as instructed. Secure a green Mini Brad Buddy™ with an orange flower brad at the center. Punch a hole near the bottom of the purse flap and secure the brad.
4. Personalize the tag and punch a hole at the top. Thread with floss and tie around the handle. Secure the tag with adhesive to prevent slipping. Place a small gift inside the purse and secure the flap with an adhesive.
