Supplies you will need
First I measured the purse and I usually make my layouts half an inch to an inch bigger on each side. Here are the 2 sides of the purse each designed on it's own canvas.

Then I put them on a canvas 8.5 X 11 ( the size of my printer paper) and I also add any extra elements or paper I think I might want to cut out and use on my project.

I print this out onto Matte Photo Paper, and change the options on my printer accordingly for this paper (I have a matte photo paper selection and select it to print high quality). After it's printed I take my wooden purse and trace out the shape on the back of my paper. Usually I eyeball where I want it to go. Then I cut it out with scissors and an exacto knife (I used the exacto knife for the inside of the purse handle.
Next thing I do is ink the edges, First I used a lighter color then I used black and then I add the physical products I want. I used pop dots to make things stand out and I journaled on this one with a black fine tip marker pen.

Then I ink the edges of the purse incase some of the seams show through after I add the paper LO's.

I then spray my krylon spray adhesive (shake well) on the purse and stick my LO's to it and then add some ribbon to finish the job!
