Crafter's Delight: Glitter Gift Wrap and Card

Image
It's time for another edition of Crafter's Delight! A few weeks ago, I had a special gift to share and wanted to create a special gift wrapping presentation for it. This was super simple but high impact, and I just loved the way it turned out! Here's how I did it: From top to bottom: I started by wrapping the gift in yellow-green wrapping paper. I used a circle cutter and bronze glitter paper to cut out 1", 1.5", and 2" circles and used spray mount adhesive to secure the circles to the box. Then I took a burnished bronze ribbon and tied a massive bow with long tails. I wanted the gift to look decorated but not overly so, and I think this did the trick. For the card, I found this wonderful yellow-green and brown craft paper and secured it to brown card stock to create a sturdy card, using a bone folder to create a crisp edge. I then took my remaining bronze glitter dots and secured them to the outside of the card. A simple mess...
