Bugaboo Christmas in July: Wrap It Up With a Twist



Good morning! Welcome to Day 3 of Bugaboo's Christmas in July; today we are challenging you to create something you'd use to wrap up a gift!  But wait...there is a twist! Please use non-traditional colors! Sounds fun, right?!


I went through my paper stash to find something non-traditional for inspiration. I thought the turquoise and lavender was so pretty and perfect for this challenge! I colored the elf with pencils, to coordinate, and used non-traditional colors for the ornaments too. I've added a band to the gift box, then mounted the image on a sparkly die cut, accented it with a touch of glitter, and adhered it to the box with foam tape. Here's a close-up of the image:


Image: Bugaboo "Elf 001" Digital Image

Embellies: Martha Stewart "Sugar Cube" Glitter

Such an adorable image. That little lady is just jingling along - completely unaware of the fragility of those Christmas balls!

What a great project, and now you have one less present to wrap. Just put it in that cute box!!

Thanks for joining us for our Christmas in July challenge at Cut it Up!
