Unique Gift Wrapping Craft!

Shanna and mine's roommate was asked by a member of her family to make t-shirts for their yearly beach trip. Her name is Tara and she is incredibly talented. So she drew and screen printed these beasts by HAND!

They look a little something like this:

AMAZING RIGHT!? She also had to make twenty-eight of these bad boys. She then decided that she wanted to individually wrap each shirt because they're a surprise for the rest of her family. I felt honored when she asked me to help her come up with something cool to do for them. 

Here's what we came up with:

Now let's get down to business!

What you need:

1. Brown Wrapping Paper - Target - $3.09
2. Eraser - Target - $1.00
3. Paper - Already Owned
4. Stamp Pad - Already Owned
5. Twine - Walmart - $3.00
6. Xacto Knife - Already Owned
7. Stamp Letters (optional) - Already Owned
8. A Little Jewelry/Charm (optional) - Ebay - $5.00

Total: Around $12

Directions:

1. wrap the item in the paper. (duh!)

2. cut out your tags and stamp on it what you want it to say. (she needed a way to identify the shirts)

 3. wrap twine around the present, after tying once add tag and charm, and then tie again.

4. draw out the design you want on the eraser then cut down everything around the design to make your own custom stamp!! (Tara so magically made this one)

5. stamp it on your wrapping paper!

VOILA! Now you have a cute, personal wrapping paper! Happy Crafting!

Miss You Always,
