Holiday Blog Tour - Wrap It up!




I thought it would be fitting to "wrap up" our holiday blog tour with one of the projects that we will be doing in my "Wrap it Up" class. I used the Wheel, "Sparkle and Shine" to make the wrapping paper for this gift. I used Old Olive ink on freezer paper to make the gift wrap. Then I tied a knot in our Red Polka Dot grosgrain ribbon and taped it on my package. I used the gift tag stamp from "Delightful Decorations" to finish off the gift. (Won't my husband be surprised when he sees that he not only has bought me a gift, but he has wrapped it as well! I love it that we can co-ordinate card, gift wrap and gift tags! And at midnight too when all the stores are closed-which is when I usually get around to doing my creating. lol I have included a picture of one of my Christmas cards, using a different set of Christmas stamps that also looks good with the "Sparkle and Shine" wheel as the background for the card.

I hope that you have enjoyed visiting with me this week as much as I have enjoyed preparing the samples for you to see. Don't forget to stop back tomorrow to see who is the winner of my blog candy. Just email me at: HalfwittStamps@aol.com . Be sure and put Blog Candy as the title of your email. The winner can email me with their name and address and I will mail it right out to you!

Please go on to the next stop on our tour, Michele Reynolds
Thanks for stopping by. Happy Stamping!
