Heidi Swapp DIY Christmas wrap

There is nothing better than handmade gift wrap at Christmas time and with Heidi's new DIY Gift Wrap  collection it is now even easier. Today I want to share  a quick tutorial with you - how to create your very own wrapping paper using the new Kraft paper roll, wooden stamps and new ink pads. Let me share  one of my projects I have been working on first. I love the combo of kraft, red and white it is such a gorgeous Christmas color combination.



 I also used the beautiful new velvet ribbon and some of the Decorative kraft tags to finish off my wrapping!

 

Let's see how I created my gift wrap.

 

 I started with the roll of the DIY Gift Wrap Wrapping paper in  kraft , the red and white  Christmas Stamp pads, two wooden christmas stamps, the kraft tags, white feathers from the Feather embellishment pack and the beautiful black, Red and Black Gift Wrap ribbon set.

 

To begin I unrolled a length of the kraft paper and used the red ink and believe stamp and randomly filled my page with the red word.

 

Then using the white ink and Merry word I was more selective with where I placed the stamp, I only wanted a small smattering of the white on my paper.

 

Using some soft organza from my stash I stitched it into a gathered thread and then to cover the stitching I laid over the gorgeous red velvet ribbon.

 

 I then grabbed one of the kraft tags and added some white stamping on it to decorate the tag. I made sure to stamp off the tag to make it look more random.

 

I layered one of the white and gold paper feathers over the tag and tied them with some silver thread.

 

Lucky for me I have already started my Christmas shopping so I have the perfect excuse to start wrapping! This collection will be available at select  Jo-Ann stores and online and independent stores!
