Wrap it Up Wednesday - Cupcake Poppies and Washi Tape

Hello and welcome to my last installment of Wrap it Up Wednesday :). I created today's gift wrap for my mother-in-law for her birthday gift. I had fun with this one because it features a new product for my Etsy shop - Luxe Cupcake Poppies.

I was making a batch of these new flowers and my mother-in-law stopped by. She saw them and commented that she thought they were pretty, so of course I had to adorn her gift with one! This is the pink bloom.

I wrapped her present in kraft paper (what else? You know I love it!), then dolled up the paper with washi tape. This coral and gold metallic quatrefoil tape is by K and Company for their SMASH line. It's my new favorite tape. I layered it with a yellow polka dot.

So, would you like to know what's inside? I'll share soon! Have a great day! Tessa

Gettin' Sketchy with New Product!

I'm so excited to share a new product I am introducing to the shop - Cupcake Poppies! 

Cupcake Poppies come in several colors and two patterns.  In gingham, I have BLACK, PINK, and TEAL.  In polka dots, I have PINK, RED, ORANGE, LIME GREEN, BLUE, PURPLE, TEAL, and BLACK.

They have a natural lift to them that pops off of the page, but you can also tack down the edges so that they lay more flat, as I did in this layout:

I thought the whimsy and bright colors of the Cupcake Poppies were perfect for this page about my sleeping kiddo.  I followed the current sketch at Sketchy Thursdays, opting for one photo instead of two.  Isn't he just as cute as a button?  Or several? :)

Cupcake Poppies are available in the shop now.  I'm having a little giveaway on the Precocious Paper Facebook page if you'd like to win a set.  And stay tuned for one more new line of flower embellishments and more Sewing Pattern Petals :).  Tessa
