Steps (14 steps, 150 minutes)

  1. 1

    Seach google images for "sex and the city carried"

  2. 2

    Find the biggest of the pictures of the official movie poster and save it to your computer.

  3. 3

    Open the picture from your computer and hit the "open in paint" -button.

  4. 4

    When opened in paint, mark the "get carried away"-place on the picture and copy.

  5. 5

    Paste it in a new clean picture and adjust, so there's no white.

  6. 6

    Find the stretch tool and make it 400 times bigger in the first two boxes.

  7. 7

    Then it should look something like this :)

  8. 8

    Choose "negative colours" from the bar and voila! Print it out!

  9. 9

    Get a thin piece of cardboard, a knife and something you can put underneath when you cut out the letters.
    Clue the paper to the cardboard, so it will stay in place :)

  10. 10

    When all the letters are cut out (except the Y. ) Make it stay in place on your fabric by pinning it with whatever you have :)
    Put a piece of cardboard under the fabric so the paint wont soak through.

  11. 11

    Dip the paint on with a piece of foam or a brush.
    Let it dry..

  12. 12

    Correct with a small brush the places where the paint didn't come.
    Use rhinestones to make a little cocktail glass to form the "Y"

  13. 13

    Pin the lace all around the edges of the tote.
    Sew it with pink glitter thread :)

  14. 14

    Iron the tote and make a cute little bow of the lace and sew it on by hand..

    AND DONE :D
