Homemade wrapping paper...

So much cheaper than £1 a sheet you can pay (probably more depending where you are!)

Supplies needed:-

Roll of Ikea childrens play paper £2.99
Inks in different colours
Stamp sets based on what the occassion is :)
Block to mount the clear stamps on (not needed if you use wood mounted obviously!) lol
Lay the paper out with a cover underneat and stamp the first set of stamps in your first colour. Random all over.Again with the second set in a different colour.Again with the sentiments in another colour.If you have a big clear blog you can mount a few stamps on and do them in sections to have it done quicker....

...and here they are covering some goodies to go to the most patient lady in the world - Blooming Myrtle!!

  5. Oh you clever thing! I spent HOURS making custom wrapping paper for a Lego set that was in a MASSIVE box; never thought to bloomin' mount more than one stamp on my block - Duh! LOL! Would have taken me a fraction of the time!
    Thanks so much for saving me time for future wrapping-paper-stamping-sessions, I was beginning to resort to little gifts LOL!
