Quick gift packaging.

I’m so behind.  Just.  So.  Behind.  This week has completely gotten away from me.  I have a to-do list that is 3 pages long.  OK, it’s a mini notebook, but still.  I’ve got thank-yous to make and send out, I have birthday cards and gifts – which are now late – to send out, creations for fun and creations for my gigs to make, and a couple of long overdue letters to write.  This of course is all in addition to laundry, helping my daughter with her poster she’s making for the church carnival (she won the contest last year and wants to repeat this year), and couponing *giggles*.  Calgon, take me away!  Ah well, y’all didn’t come to hear me whine, because I’m sure some of you are right there with me – LOL

So yeah – belated birthday present.  I’ve had the gift sitting on my craft table for a while now.  I knew I was going to put it in one of my bags from the shoppe.  And then when I went to package it, uh, it was too big.  Awesome.  So I grabbed this remnant piece of muslin that I had and wrapped it around the gift, and then embellished away.  I’m not a huge user of Imaginisce products, but I simply could not resist their new Animal Crackers collection.  So bright, so fun, so colorful.

I added a little music note patterned rubon from Glitz Design on to my lil’ taggie, and then a Glitzer (transparent sticker) and some teeny alpha stickers from Glitz too.

Cute canvas tag stickers in the Animal Crackers collection too; I love topping party hats with a pom pom.

I mixed in some pennant stickers from Jenni Bowlin and a sticker strip and some chipboard from My Mind’s Eye.
