Something Saturday - Click Clack Concertina Card

 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" šŸ¤£  Let me know your favourite gift wrapping solutions. God Bless love Heather
