Make a Trading Card Purse

Cassandra, aka CraftyMommy, posted this fun project on our Dollar Store Crafts Facebook page - a purse made out of World of Warcraft trading cards. She found the trading cards at the dollar store, as well as her other supplies, and she wrote a complete tutorial on how to make the purse. Oh, and if trading cards aren't your thing, how about playing cards or baseball cards? What else could you make out of trading cards ? A wallet and laptop case come to my mind (great gifts for guys!). [how to make a trading card purse]

Project Estimate:

2 rolls of sticky vinyl (contact paper), $2
36 trading cards, $1-2

Total: $3 and up

I’m not into the warcraft thing, but this is a cute idea.

I bet a high school senior would LOVE one made with wallets of all their senior picture proofs. (That could get pricey fast, but it IS an idea.)

If that same senior could connive two wallets from each friend, they could also make this with the spare ones. :)

I am not a world of war craft fan, but this is a great way to let my seven year old browse through his father’s baseball card collection that will one day be passed down to him. You could also use larger pocketed pages & make a purse for comic books.
