My Swirling Leaves Wallpaper in Vriendin

Wrapping paper designed by me for my Graphic Design 2 class. I need to work on my wrapping skills!

I'm wrapping Christmas presents and catching up on Tivo tonight. That's dad's present with the snowflake.

Looks like someone has a little Christmas wrapping paper addiction, hm?

But in my defense, some of these rolls are almost used up, and all were bought at after-Christmas sale price, so it's not as bad as it looks. (g)

no inspiration today... doing my Christmas wrapping.

Mission Complete!

Digital camera, laser cut card onto brown paper, unfinished final piece. Product for a positive design for wrapping paper,

This year's wrapping theme is trees and reindeer.

I was happy to see some books well-received by my sister, mother, and father this year. I got some lovely and thoughtful gifts myself. Jenn surprised me with a lovely note inside the wrapping of her wonderful gift.

later today we might go skating.

The paper is from my dear friend Amanda's Mother's Mother's fiftes boutique, called "Tots and Teens." We attended a Birthday party were this paper appeared on presents, and I saved it from the trash! Ithink it's incredible....

I also had the stroke of incredible good luck, I talked a friend who is getting married soon into visiting a wholesale floral place here in town. It's been calling to me for a while, and I'm soooo glad I checked it out! I got FIVE packs of vintage millinary flowers (this is just one here), and sooo much more!

This gorgeous, metallic foxy gift wrap illustrated by Kirsty Baynham is included in my All Things Paper round up of recently released/upcoming papercraft books and fine quality paper goods. Not just for wrapping presents, it can be framed or used for craft projects: www.allthingspaper.net/2025/02/papercraft-books-and-paper...

My (lacey) wrapping of these took less than 10 minutes and they turned out fabulous.

wrapping paper

How is it that the smaller the box the more expensive the contents?!

"striped wrapping paper, it's delicious, you must've payed a fortune."

Lil Emma joined us back in Edgworth to celebrate Grumps latest Birtday. She was even so good as to get him a present and a card...though I think she may have got some help!

My precious family crib ready to be unwrapped. The set was given to us last year by my Mother after I searched every shop in Liverpool and Knutsford for the one in my mind...basically this one!!

It comes with an additional "Jesus" as family tradition goes that Jesus is "born" (placed in the crib) after getting back from Midnight Mass. But as children my sister and I used to argue over the privilege of putting Jesus into the crib my mother made another baby so both of us could put him in. We are now 33 and 31 with children of our own, but the crib still has two!
