We just can’t get enough… For more information on Bizys, visit her In 5 Minutes here, or her blog Hello Sandwich, here.
Accordion Bow Idea
Have fun turning the scraps of your Wrapping Paper into a sweet little accordion bow to top your present. Take a piece of paper of your choice and trim the side edges with pinking shears or scalloped shears. Fold the piece of paper into an accordion fan shape and fasten in the centre with a piece of MT tape. Pull out the fan into a bow shape and tie to the top of your present with some assorted, colourful ribbons.
Wrapping Decoration Ideas
Use a postage stamp shaped hole punch or pinking shears to cut the scraps of your Wrapping Paper, or sheets from the Sweet Printed Notepad into cute little stamps to adorn your present. Use some rubber stamps (I’ve used some post office like marking stamps) and stamp on top of your present. This way it looks like a cute little parcel. I love the Sweetheart Wooden Stamp Set and the Cute Wooden Stamp Set and these look so sweet stamped all over your presents. Have fun experimenting with different coloured stamp inks.
Original Tag Idea
Glue some of the Sweet Printed Notepad or Graphic Printed Notepad sheets onto a cardboard stock and create your own gift tags by punching out some large circles with a jumbo circle punch. Add a small hole for some ribbon with an eyelet punch or a regular hole punch and finish with assorted cute ribbons. Decorate these to your liking with Stamps and Stickers from the kikki.k Cute Collection. You can also make some more traditional tags by cutting out a tag shape from the Cute Wrapping Paper or the Sweet Printed Notepad. For added effect you could use some of the label stickers from the Cute Sticker Book and stick it on top of your tag. Use an eyelet punch (or a simple hole punch if you don’t have an eyelet punch) to create a hole for your ribbon. Finish by taping the tag onto your present with MT tape.
Handmade Envelope Idea
Make some little handmade envelopes from assorted items from the Cute or Sweet Collections. You could use an envelope template or create your own template by carefully opening and unfolding an existing envelope and then using it to trace the shape of your handmade envelope. Try lining your envelope with brown paper, kitchen wax paper or tissue paper for a luxurious effect. Have fun decorating the front of your envelope with MT tape, cut-out stamp shapes (you can stick the real postage stamps next to these patterned stamps) and stickers from the Sticker Books. It’s also a lot of fun stamping the envelopes with rubber stamps including the ‘to’ and ‘hello’ stamps from the kikki.k Greeting Stamp Set.
Handmade Stationery Letter Paper Idea
You may also like to use scissors or a corner rounder punch to round the corners of sheets from the Sweet Printed Notepad and make your own letter writing stationery. Stamp ‘Hello’ and ‘From’ using the Greeting Stamp Set and a dotted line with the stamp from the Sweethearts Stamp Set. You have a super cute letter paper sheet.
Happy Wrapping!
