Last week, or the week before, I suggested you save some of your favorite wrapping paper. I hope you did, 'cause this is where you need it. Your challenge is to use some of your left over wrapping paper to make a background, or maybe a focal point on a card or scrapbook page. (My family thought it was interesting that I needed good chunks of wrapping paper, so the unwrapped carefully and I wound up with lots and lots of wrapping paper. Unfortunately, most in the same patterns.)
Here are my examples:
On the one, I used lots of smaller pieces to make a background. On the other, I just used a large piece of one as a focal point. Have fun with this. If you forgot and got rid of all the wrapping paper, you can use scraps of patterned paper, instead.
I can't wait to see what you come up with for this, as there are so many options, as well as wrapping papers. You certainly don't have to make a Christmas project. Many wrapping papers would be good for all sorts of different things.
