bows are key

well, what is it about wrapping that is so exciting to me?  it's the whole process of creating a piece of art so-to-speak.  it's the emotion of the recipient that brings joy to me.  it's the challenge of taking time to make something that is beautiful, colorful, thoughtful and full of inspiration.  i enjoy gathering all kinds of materials that can be considered gift wrapping and toppers or ornaments.  i look through many resources to find inspiration of color themes, textures, designs, structures, objects and patterns.  i never consider anything too hard to do.  however, i do consider what i am willing to invest time in making and what is not worth it.   everything in life provides me inspiration - some is much greater than others and i know that to be true for any artist.  so here are some other works of art.  

ornaments & cut outs













buttons & punches
rubber stamping galore

pre cut shapes of any kind

reduce reuse recycle from another gift

maxmize space

even small can be customized
 creativity is given to all ages on their gifts
