Because every gift deserves a good wrap!
How to: Holiday Wrapping Paper
You will need:1. Draw your design onto the rubber block stamp with a pencil.
Speedball carving tool
Rubber block stamp
Paint or ink
Brush
Solid color wrapping paper
Pencil
Gift
2. Hold your carving tool at an angle and cut into the block making shallow grooves along your design (cut out what you don't want to appear when you stamp the paper - like this).
3. Lay out the desired amount of wrapping paper then apply a light layer of paint to the face of your stamp.
4. Continuously stamp the surface of your wrapping paper.
5. Wrap your gift and save your stamp to use again next year!

Oh I love this.
My dad likes to wrap his presents in old newspaper. He always looks for a nice image or saying and puts that on top. It looks retro and is earth-friendly!
This is such an awesome idea! I loveee the bracelets!

The result is so nice but too hard to be done in my opinion!
I prefer to buy a cool wrap paper and customize a card!
