12 Days of Christmas ~ On the Sixth Day...

So how is your present wrapping coming along? Do you wrap as you go or do you wait and set aside some time to wrap everything at once? Do you keep it simple or do you use your packages as yet another way to showcase a little crafty goodness?

For the most part, I am a little fanatic about wrapping. I love to spend lots of time making the packages really nice, no matter what's underneath the pretty wrapping. Sometimes I love using plain or solid color wrapping paper and jazz it up with some patterned scrapbooking paper. Other times it's just as simple as adding a special tag. What I'd like to share today are two gift bag ideas.

First, adding a little extra something to a bag. Here I made a gift tag and matched with tissue paper and ribbon to bring it all together.

Another idea was to take an otherwise plain Kraft bag and add a little Santa magic to it. If you'd like to see how easy this is, hop on over to the CutCardStock blog to see my tutorial. It's easy peasy and you'll be the hit under the tree!
