Collage Handbag

I have spent the last twelve years collecting colorful interesting colors/textures/words/sayings from magazines and junk mail before recycling. I save all these "treasures" and sort them by color into clear 8.5 by 11 file pockets. At this time I have five file boxes full of cutouts.
This zippered clutch was made from things in my turquoise, pink and black collection. It has a 1.5 inch black faux leather gusset in which the black zipper was inserted (along the top edge).
I have enough collages that I could make about 100 more of these type clutches if I only had time but I love doing so many creative things!
