I know...it's January 11th and you'd think the Christmas posts would be coming to an end. They are. I promise. ;)
Each Christmas our family (well, the girls) decides on a wrapping paper theme whether it's a color combination, pattern or icon. We went with a color theme this year and settled on red, black, grey and white. Each of us girls took a roll of paper from a coordinating collection that my mom found and wrapped our gifts in it. I chose a roll that had red, black and grey snowflakes on white.
Since I didn't do any scrapping during the holidays, I was getting the itch to get creative. While wrapping Christmas gifts, I fed my need to scrap by making all my gift tags. It felt good to dig in my stash and use whatever worked.
Here's some of the tags I made. Excuse the photos and *gasp* the use of flash in a couple. Crappy weather, overcast, gloomy days didn't help things. ;)
I ended up using papers from Dream Street, American Crafts, g.c.d Studios and maybe some Luxe. The only thing I bought that wasn't in my stash was a few rolls of red and black hemp cord.
I found this santa suit gift card tutorial and loved it so much I made a couple for gift card stocking stuffers. There's supposed to be white on the collar but I left it off.
Hope you're having a good Sunday! Thanks for stopping by! :)
