Wrapping up

Finally after laboring for the past few days, 95% of all the Christmas presents are all wrapped up! Yay! That’s a huge load off my mind. *relief*

The wrapping task is always a pleasant one because I do love to gift-wrap. And for this year, I’ve used one of my all-time favorite wrappers, the kraft paper, along with the ribbons that Catherine gave and the elegant brown+strawberry coloured tags I recently bought at Beverly’s brand new shop. I’ve also made some Christmas tree confetti with the punch from Jessica.

There was one birthday present that had to be wrapped and with an image-packed wrapper like this one, I had to pause to decide if I should add a ribbon or string. Hmm…

Soon, I thought why not use the leftover to show a 2-D display with foam tape. That was like a minor “Eureka!” moment. *ding!*

   Love the 2-D effect!! Your packages are wonderful, Clara! And as you know, I’m big brown, kraft paper fan! ;o) I, too, really enjoy wrapping gifts and making the outsides of them as pretty and fun as the insides. Happy making ready for Christmas, and Happy Weekend, my friend ((HUGS))
