pink saturday :: wrapping paper

needed to wrap something for a little girl.

i spotted these pink papers.

these are rejects from my brother's printing press.

i asked him to bring me some rejects

for the kiddos to doodle and cut.

 but hey, it is pink !

i sure can use it to be creatively frugal.

  

so i taped 4 pieces together and wrapped the gift like this...

cut several circles and did this...

 

and this...

 

placed a tape at the back...

and voila!

i think that turned out pretty neat.

what do you think?

p.s.

in time for the season of hearts,

a heart shaped tag can be used instead of circles.

curious...

pink glitters and more...

behave...

and... voila!
pink flower glitter tattoo for the little lady...

hers (pink flower)
mine (pink lady bug :D)she was okay, giddy and happy...
until...the clown in pink came in.

first time to see a clown.
she was scared and won't leave my lap.
she only warmed up when the clown gave her this balloon flower...

and because she's not scared anymore,
she had another glitter tattoo -
it's mickey mouse this time.

and even posed for mommy...

and had another one on her leg - it's tinkerbell!
how cute is that?

the loot bag with pink flowers...

she went home happy...

and won't let mommy "erase" her body art - until now!
