Tape for wrapping
1) Cut a piece of wrapping paper a little larger than the size you know you need.
2) Stamp the cluster in 1st color of pigment ink in an all over random fashion leaving open spaces.
3) Stamp the cluster in 2nd color of pigment ink in a random fashion, filling some of the empty spaces.
4) Repeat with all the colors of pigment ink using the Snowflake Cluster, over-lapping colors as needed (clean the stamp between colors), until all of the negative space is filled. Let dry over night or use a heat tool to speed up the drying time.
5) Stamp the Snowman tag stamp using the silver ink onto a piece of black card stock scrap large enough to comfortably fit the image.
6) Sprinkle the detail silver embossing powder over stamped tag image; tap off the excess powder onto a piece of scrap paper; and pour the loose powder back into the container.
7) Use the heat tool to melt powder until smooth. Let cool.
8) Use the opaque pastel gel pens to color the embossed image. Be careful not to obscure the embossed details with the gel ink. Let dry.
9) Cut out the tag close to the embossed edge with the scissors.
10) Punch the hole where shown on the tag.
11) Cut the velvet ribbon ends to points and thread one end through the hole in the tag to the middle of the ribbon. Fold the ribbon and finger press to mark the “middle”.
12) Place the double stick tape on the back side of the ribbon, starting at one end point, from side edge to side edge to a 1/2” or so down from the middle fold of the ribbon. Use 2 pieces if necessary to line that half of the back side with tape, peeling off the backing of the 1st piece before applying the 2nd piece. Trim tape around the ribbon ends so no tape shows from the front of the point. Peel the backing off the second piece of tape.
13) Place the tassel at the cut tip of the sticky end of the ribbon and place its cord down the center of the tape. Snip off any extra cord where the tape ends.
14) Take the un-sticky end of the ribbon and match its point up with the sticky point and press them together. Work your way down the ribbon, pressing the edges together, until you get to where the tape ends.
15) Cut one piece of rickrack to the length needed to wrap your gift box and one piece 4” long; then dip the ends of both pieces into some glitter glue to keep the ends from fraying. Let dry.
16) Wrap your gift box with the stamped paper.
17) Tie the long piece of rickrack around the box so the ends tie together in the upper left corner.
18) Tie the extra piece of rickrack into the knot and then tie both sets of rickrack over the velvet ribbon to secure the tag to the package.
TA DA! You now have a mailing friendly wrapped gift with a tag that can be used as a book mark after the recipient opens their present. ~ Jenna
