Random Wrappings & FREE Christmas tag printable

Gift giving is the best and I enjoy pretty presentation and adding those little extra details to gifts. Usually I follow a similar color theme and look but this year I was across the board. Here are a few this years Holiday trimmings from neighbors gifts to teacher gifts. 

Teacher gifts: Coffee cups filled with chocolate. Snow globe tag and Starbucks gift card attached.

I do a bunch of wrapping on Christmas Eve. Need some quick and easy tags for your Christmas gifts?  Download this PDF File and print away. Or if you want a stamp brush of these images and more you can download them for FREE at my memories shop.

Paper Pumpkin - Birthday Bundle (May 2015)

The May 2015 Paper Pumpkin' kit is super cute. I love the Birthday Bundle stamp set. While I always need a birthday card this month  I really needed a Father's day card. I made this kit fit the bill. Here's to a bright and fun Father's Day! 

I paired the kit with the Father's Day stamp from the Crazy About You stamp set.

Brown paper packages

I love this trend of brown paper packages tied up with string - baker's twine. I've used this look a bit in my holiday gift wrapping this year. First with little gift packages I created for the gals at card club. These gifts are packaged in printed chevron kraft bags and topped with red card stock, a doily and a printed label.

Second with the 12 days of Craftmas gifts I annually prepare. I usually make three sets of 12 days packages but due to my stress level this year I only got one completed. And, too boot - not delivered on time. Oh well. It's the thought, right? These packages are wrapped in kraft butcher's paper and tied up with tinsel trim. I also used a paper doily on these gifts. The presents seemed a little plain without the doily and I like how it helps to showcase the tag which states which day to open the gift.

I created the tags in illustrator for both and used the Harmon font family for most of the typesetting. I am please with how these gifts turned out and hope they were and will be fun to open.
