Poinsettia Gift Bows and Glitter Everywhere


  

Merry Christmas Everyone!
I've been scrambling to wrap up the last of the Christmas presents. I found this awesome wrapping paper at target that looks like chalkboard art. Since it is mainly black I needed to add some color to liven up the packages. Instead of getting crappy bows at the dollar store I decided to add a crafty touch to each gift.


I headed over to SVGCUTS.com and checked out what they had for Christmas. They have this super cute wintergreen set with poinsettias, holly, pine cones, and more. The price was right so I decided to use the poinsettias and holly leaves instead of bows.


I cut out everything on my ecraft cutter and decided to glitter everything up. WHAT A MESS! But it turned out pretty cool. If you do this I would definitely recommend using a box when using glitter.








After glittering the poinsettia I made fold down the middle of each of the petals. This gave the flowers some dimension.








It turned out great! One Christmas to-do checked off. 5 million more to go.

Happy Holidays!
