A Special Little Gift

Do you have a little gift for someone very special? Doesn’t it deserve a special gift wrap? Here’s an easy decoration for a small box.

Paperwhimsy supplies:

Lumiere Paint Halo Violet Gold

Distressed Ink Vintage Photo

Paint a small box with acrylic paint in chosen color
Wrap the lid of the box in vintage ledger paper
Paint a small piece, 2×2 inches of canvas, foamboard, or heavy cardboard, and one pair od wooden wings with chosen Lumiere paint
Apply Glidenglitz randomly on both painted surfaces
Attach a Paperwhimsy image to the 2×2 inch square with favorite medium, and glue square to the wings
Attach two green leaves behind the wings
Center and glue the canvas/wings to the gift box lid a little higher than center
Now you can add some embellishments such as ribbons, Prima flowers with rhinestone centers, German scrap trim, small crown, and stamped grunge tag

After scanning the gift box and creating a small layout for this tutorial, I thought I might print the image and use for a quick card. Just add a little gold ribbon, and you have a really special card for friends or family.

I hope you all have a wonderful Holiday Season, and Merry Christmas.
