Something Saturday - Origami Envelopes

 Hi There Creators, Guess what? it's that time of the week again for Something Saturday!😃 This week I happened to be scrolling through Facebook and came across this origami envelope quick video, so I have deciphered the video (you know how they do it and it's so fast!) And I've worked out if you do it with 12x12" cardstock you get an envelope worthy of a card, and a 6x6" piece gives you a gift card sized envelope.

 Hi there Creators, I don't know about you, but when I send off my Christmas Presies (mine go off to the UK and other far flung places)  I really love making them look gorgeous on the outside, hopefully they also like what's inside.  But who doesn't like looking at a pretty'ly wrapped pressie under their tree? or getting a beautiful looking present for their Birthday? Stampin' Up! have some small "cheat" ways of wrapping up smaller presies, just decorate the boxes or bags and voila.... I have stamped directly onto the Ombre Gift Bags, and the boxes I've used a combination of Designer Papers, Stamps, Dies and even an embossing folder directly onto the Acetate Card box. I do show them all in the video below, and you can check out Stampin' Up!'s Packaging solutions here: Packaging (Heather's Website) I hope these inspire you to get your Gift-Wrapping "on" 🤣  Let me know your favourite gift wrapping solutions. God Bless love Heather
