Get a load of this!

The swap hasn't even started yet and I've already bought something special for my swappy sister to be!
Check this out!
SOOOO CUTE! 
It's a roll of wrapping paper I found while out today.
I can't get over how perfect it is! It's vintage-y and Valentine-y.
 I haven't decided what I'm going to with it yet. I don't think I want to wrap something in it. It's just too pretty. Maybe art? Valentine's Day card? Suggestions?!

Anyways, just thought I'd get the ball rolling!! CAN'T WAIT!

  1. Love the paper. What to do with it though I have no idea. I'm betting some of the really crafty gals do though :-)

  3. I would totally cut a cute piece out, mount it to some cardstock (cut it a little smaller than the cardstock for a border) and frame that! (Then you'll still have some leftover). Too too cute!

  7. That paper is so perfect for this swap! And I love all the ideas too! You could also make cupcake wrappers by: 1.) laying a pattern (free online) on the paper and outline it with a pencil. 2.) Next cut it out with decorative scissors. This is much the same shape of a Starbucks cup wrapper when opened....also open on the bottom when finished and you set your finished cupcake, with its regular paper wrapper, inside the decorative wrapper! So cute!!!
