Welcome to the weekend.
Are you all ready for Christmas? Or is this the weekend when you put on your Santa hat and get everything done?
Whatever you're up to, pop over to the Uniko Studio Blog today and join us for a Christmas Party!
Bev and the Uniko Brand Ambassadors are having a little festive celebration sharing a few last minute ideas for using all those gorgeous Uniko Christmas products.
So ..... you've made your Christmas cards, done the gift tags, how about making your own gift wrap.
I bought a really inexpensive roll of plain brown (kraft) paper (you'll find loads on Amazon and eBay) and then I've used my Uniko stamps to decorate it.
Pretty holly leaves with festive red berries ...... I used Versafine Clair inks and they stamped beautifully on the brown paper, nice crisp images
I used an old paint brush to splatter white ink over the top, and really make the design pop.
I also found some plain white twill ribbon ...... again really cheap to buy and looks fab hand stamped with a Christmas greeting (unfortunately the one I've used is from a retired Uniko stamp set but I'm sure you have lots of festive sentiments that would do the job just as well)
To finish off I made a matching gift tag using the same sentiment stamp .....
and the matching designer dies for the holly leaves .....

You've turned plain wrapping into a festive gift all by itself, Linda! I love the hollies, schplatters, and how you personalized the ribbon!! Happy Holiday Hugs, Darnell
Great idea Linda, your stamping is so crisp and the splatter adds a lovely extra festive touch. There was white fluffy stuff on the moors today but thank goodness nothing here. Merry Christmas. :)
So creative to make your own Christmas wrapping paper with matching tag. Great job Linda. And what a great way to stretch the use of our stamps! Enjoy the party! xx
