Fold it in half - use your bone folder to get a good crease.

Cut cardstock 5 1/4 inches by 2 1/8 inches. Score on the dotted lines : Measure in at 1 3/8 inches and score. Measure in at 2 3/4 inches and score and measure in at 4 1/8 inches and score.At the end section which is the flap – measure 1/4 inch from the last score line and then find the center and trim on each side of the center to create the pointed flap.

For the under-skirt of the flap - cut a piece of cardstock 2 1/8 inches by 1 1/2 inches.Tape this piece under the flap and trim, leaving about 1/8 inch showing from underneath the flap -like the white under-skirt in the picture.

Punch 2 small 1/16 inch holes at the 4 1/8 inch score line and thread the ribbon through the holes andeither knot or tape the ribbon to secure it. Punch a 1/8 inch hole through the flap and the front panel of the purse to stick the brad through. This holds the purse closed. You could use a button or sticker or flower in place of the brad. Then you just glue the flap to the front of the purse to keep it closed.

Put a little adhesive on the bottom of each nugget and slide them into the purse from either side.
