Maya Road Design Team: Gift Wrapping

Hello Roadies!

I hope you all had a fun and blessed Mother's Day!

Today, I want to share with you a few ideas on how the beautiful Maya Road products can easily upgrade simple packaging into beautiful gift wrapping.

This year, I chose to wrap my mom's presents individually. The papers used all come from a single 12x12 paper collection, and I chose the B sides for the boxes, while creating the bag with the A side of one of the papers.

To create harmony on this collection, I used to wrap all the presents with Earl Grey Jute and Twine cording, and add accents of gold to all three wrappings.

For the bag, after sealing it, I used my hole puncher to create a pair of holes where i could thread some of the twine. After the first twine loop, a heart die cut- created from gold cardstock using the Geometric Heart Die - was added to the twine. After another loop, a pair of Vintage Crafting Tassels (gold capped) were added before tying the ends together in a bow.

The larger box was the one containing the sentiment. I chose to add a large altered tag on this box; I simply used the With Love Nature Die to cut the sentiment from gold cardstock, and glued it to the tag a bit off center. Next I added a few of the Pearl Flower Trim - i just cut each flower individually - to the lower left corner of the tag, and glued a Pink Tulle Mini Bloom on top of the trim's flowers. To complete the tag, I added a Pretty Resin Bow in white to the top of the tag, and a new an upcoming diamond resin piece around the flower.

To complete this trio of presents, I used some of the same elements on this box. However, I added a Vintage Linen Burlap Rose, a token from the Wood Thoughtful Sentiment set, a heart from the Ken Oliver Heart & Key Charms, and a gold butterfly die cut -created using the With Love Nature steel die - to make this box a little different, yet complimentary to the other in this group.

I love the final look of this set, the simple wrapping of the boxes is the perfect background for all the Maya Road embellishments. I hope that you all check out all the beautiful products used, and take advantage of this month's Resin promotion over at the Maya Road website.
