Co-ordinating Gift Wrap, Tag and Birthday Card

Hi everyone. The theme for our makes this week is "children". My sweetest granddaughter Daisy is 11 on the 11th of this month. I really don't know where those years have gone. She is still my best crafting buddy and loves to craft with me whenever she can. I decided that I would make her gift wrap, a tag and a card which all coordinated. One of her favourite sets is the bees so I included these.

Tutorial

First I stamped one of each of the balloons on Kraft card using distress oxide ink. These are shown as below with their coordinating dies. I also die cut the number 11 using the number 1 die in the set, in black card.

Here they are cut out. I stamped the sentiment onto Kraft card and cut around it.

I added scorched timber distress ink to all the edges to make everything pop.

I stamped and die cut out some of the smaller bees. I always make more than I need so that some are always ready for a new project.

I attached ribbons behind the balloons using foam tape and a bow to each front. I adhered the number 11 in place.

I stamped some stars from the sentiment set on the tag and adhered everything in place. I added gold glitter pen and sparkle to the wings of the bees.

I matted the tag onto yellow card and added a coordinating ribbon. Here is the finished tag.

For the matching gift wrap I wrapped brown paper around my glass media mat and using the 4 smaller bees on an acrylic block randomly stamped all over using VersaFine Summertime ink.

So here are the tag and gift wrap.

This is the coordinating card I made for Daisy.

Here is Daisy's parcel all ready for her to open on her birthday.

You can obviously use any stamp sets at all for this project. It really does elevate your gifting if you hand stamp your own gift wrap and make a matching tag (and even card as I did).
