Giftwrap

Wrapping the gifts I got for the wedding was a lot of fun.
I still have to make them their card.
I think the awesome card is going to be a wedding tradition of mine.



I made wrapping paper by soaking printing paper in a shallow tray on a mixture of cooking oil, water, and food coloring. I should've let it soak a little longer, but I was being impatient and short on time.

While it was still wet, I traced some patters with more concentrated food coloring.

I did not have a ribbon, so I made one out of tracing paper.



This one is wrapped in tracing paper for the added light and translucent effect. With a tracing paper crane and ribbon, which curls with a scissors the same way that regular ribbon does.
