Because Rainbow Mermaid requested it: my WW2 wrapping paper from Archie McPhee. This shot would make a pretty good computer desktop, if I do say so myself!

Unfortunately I don't know any Generals who have a birthday coming up, so for now the paper is collecting dust in my studio.

December 21, 2009-- Today I got a huge chunk of Christmas shopping done. Only 2 more gifts to buy! Yay! But today as I was wrapping presents, I realized that it was the first time since I was like 11 that I didn't blast my tradtional "Present Wrapping Music". What is this music? "El Tango De Roxanne" from Moulin Rouge, as sung by Ewan McGregor, Jacek Koman, and Jose Feliciano. It's about a far from Christmas music as you can get, and I don't know why I listen to it while I wrap presents.

Speaking of Moulin Rouge, this is my favorite movie of all time. If you want a SPECTACULAR and BEAUTIFUL romance movie, guys, your lady is destined to love this one.

Gromit has always loved to unwrap presents. Strictly speaking what he really loves is to shred bits of paper, so come Christmas time he's in his element.

It's more than a year since our little lad was diagnosed with a tumour. At the time he was given only 3 to 6 months. He's done really well this year but he's been on bonus time since the summer. We didn't think he'd be around to help us open our presents this year. Having him with us for one more Christmas was the best present we had.

I didnt have any wrapping paper so I used paper bags and Im quite happy with the result!

Got this for my birthday and made a start over the weekend. Mysterious gingham koala-thing courtesy of birthday present wrapping paper!

The model is supposed to be made from a square, but I cheated and cut off those corners to make the folding easier. So technically, this particular flower is folded from an octagon. I folded a star from those leftovers, so nothing got wasted :D

Selling all kinds of stationery made from paper - photo albums, photo frames, note books, pen holders, diaries, and wrapping paper. It's paper heaven for me!!

Getting Mother's Day gifts ready for other mothers (yeah, I know it's a manufactured holiday, but it's one I kinda like).

Spoonflower is offering designs on wallpaper now! It is for a special holiday offering.

You can access my Spoonflower Designs through my Flickr Profile for my webpage listed at Spoonflower.

I decided I'd order this one, as it can cover birthdays or holiday gifts.

Milly in the wrapping paper.

I'm wrapping presents tonight and apparently inciting a riot over on Twitter. How about you Flickr folks: "Love, Actually" or "Bridget Jones' Diary"?

No, not for you, silly! It's for my sister… you'd get one too if you promised to bring me Arroz Crocante Fresa from Ecuador!

This time last year, it was lime time!.

hmm... kermit...
