Personalized Initial Confetti Gift Wrap Paper - ready to gift This is a cute way of gift wrapping by adding a personalized touch with the recipient's initial, while also repurposing any packaging supplies you may have (from online orders, store purchases, etc).

Total Time: 40 minutes

Supplies:

hole puncher
scrapbook paper
glue stick
X-acto Knife
tape
tissue paper
scissors
Optional computer/printer

Steps:

Punch holes using your choice of scrapbook paper. I went with the color theme of: purple, hot pink and red.

I used 2 sheets of tissue paper (reuse from online order) to wrap a book.

I went online and searched for the letter of my recipient "J" and printed the letter J template out. You can also freehand if you'd like.

Using an X-acto knife, trace the J and cut out.

Optional: Cut your template smaller for easier use. Now, position your template on the wrapped book. I cut a (2) 1" inch strips to position on my template and taped around book to secure template in place.

Repeat until the entire letter is filled with hole punch confetti. Now, pat off the confetti that didn't stick.

Next step for me, I wrapped the second book (that is going to be underneath) with just 1 sheet of tissue appear instead of 2. And secured the two books with a stretchy silver bow.
