Brown wrapping paper

Good afternoon,

I was going to save this picture for later….but after receiving so many awesome comments and emails I decided to share it today.  (Weekend posts may be headed in the direction of just fun stuff.)

My picture is of the gift I covered with the brown wrapping paper & the Figgy Pudding Flower. (Can't find my big roll of brown paper so I dug out a grocery bag and cut it apart).

Here's the picture of the flower before I added it to the box.

I used the Flower Folds Die and the Scallop Circle #2 Die to make the flowers and the Old Olive Grosgrain Ribbon matches the Figgy Pudding Fabric. I thought about using the Chocolate but I went with the Olive since it's one of my favorite colors.

Have a great day!

  1. Oh my gosh! That is beautiful!!!

    Did you put batting in between the layers of fabric, or is it just two layers of fabric?

    Thanks for sharing you beautiful creation with us!

    Hugs,

  2. This is my favorite thing you have presented so far! Any chance on you selling these flowers? I don’t have the big shot or a sewing machine. 🙁

  3. Absolutely beautiful. I have always loved the look of brown wrapping paper. Wish I could sew to make some of these, but sewing machines scare me. I wouldn’t want to open the present!

  4. Talk about taking a gift to another level…WOW, how beautiful. Someone will be so happy to receive a package so pretty. What you put inside wouldn’t even matter. Fabric & diecuts…another addiction.

  5. How beautiful! The presentation alone is enough to be thankful and appreciative. I would be happy just to get the beautiful wrapped flower. You are such an inspiration. For now, I’ll be admiring your “new” sewing fabric projects. I am not ready to venture into that yet. Thanks.

  11. Angie for a year I have been saving the brown paper out of our Stampin’ Up! boxes. I love to recycle! It makes great bags and wrapping paper. I iron it flat and stamp on it to make it into a bag. Love the flowers. Thanks for sharing your creativity with all of us.
