I didn't have any wrapping paper and I was in a rush, so I wrapped the gift with the packing paper that Stampin' Up! pads their shipments with. It worked great and was much cheaper than store-bought wrapping paper! It was pretty quick and easy, and it was nice to have the wrapping paper coordinate with the card I made. I love this stamp set, and I wish that Stampin' Up! would come out with another set that's similar!

I save all that packing paper! It comes in great for all kinds of occassions, and yes, I've stamped and wrapped gifts too! Yours is so very cute with those blues and certainly celery!! So cute!!

Great idea, with the cost of wrapping paper and it just gets thrown away, this makes perfect sense. Someone posted last year to use wheel on individual sections (the packing paper torn into perforated sections) and use to wrap small gifts. I did this at a workshop last Nov and the gals loved it.
