All Wrapped Up

This months challenge over at Crafty Individuals is 'All Wrapped Up' chosen by the very talented Jo Capper-Sandon.

I decided to make some gift tags as seen above and some wrapping paper.......

Then pretty them up by adding hand made flowers and leaves, although the leaves above were a punch.

I love black and gold, it always looks so elegant.

The above paper was made by spritzing distress inks on a non stick mat and smooshing paper into it. Any gaps were filled in with DI's and foam pads. I then over stamped one of my favourite CI-161 text stamps randomly over the top.

This background was simply stamped (CI-058) in Timber Brown Staz-on onto old paper then ripped and used as a wrap around over the snowflake background shown above.

The black and gold paper was created by heat embossing the swirl (CI-182) in gold and swiping gold paint across it as above.

The other one here was heat embossed the same, but then I added the crackle background (CI 116) using versamark and gold pearlex powder.

Why not enter the challenge over on Crafty Individuals blog, there are some prizes to be won?
