Day 122 - It's A Wrap




So today Pam over at "365 Cards" gave us our orders and they were to create a card using wrapping paper. I don't know about you but I have used gift bags for over 8 years now and wasn't even sure if I owned wrapping paper. I knew I might have some in the bedroom that would be at least bought in this decade, but Joe was still sleeping and I didn't want to explain to him that I needed it for a card challenge (somehow I didn't think he would understand this early in the morning). I went into our storage room where we keep Christmas decorations and my gift bags and eureka I found some paper. Looks like we are having a Christmas Card today.
Enjoy~
details: vintage snowman wrapping paper by American Greetings, May Arts Ribbon, Autumn Leaves Buttons, Cosmo Cricket Storybook Stickers, Hemp Twine, Ranger distress vintage photo ink, Neenah black and natural white cardstock. On the inside I added a little more of the wrapping paper and some rubons by Making Memories.

    OMG this is wonderful!! Your paper compliments the image beautifully, and I love the inside, too! And so much attention to detail (perfectly lined up patterned paper for your sentiment? I only dream of that!) :)
