Pam Garrison Wrapping Paper

I love Pam Garrison's drawings and was thrilled when my sister Lana bought me her wrapping paper. I'm not sure where you can get it anymore...she gave it to me months ago. I used one of the pieces of wrapping paper for the background of my latest paper doll.

This is what Pam Garrison's wrapping paper looks like when you buy it - not your ordinary roll. It comes in a set of flat sheets. You get several designs in the pack.

I decided to make a couple of projects with one sheet of paper. The first is a mini purse I made from one of those mini books. This is what I started with - a mini book I purchased from Craft Depot for .80.

I laminated the wrapping paper with Vinyl Fuse, an iron on vinyl you can find at Joann's. Then I wrapped it around the book cover.

Below is what the back side looks like.

I lined the inside of the purse with fabric and then I attached some ribbon for handles. This purse was just a prototype. I wanted to try something small to see how it would come out. Now I can venture on to something bigger.

The next project I made with Pam's wrapping paper was a mini book.

 It measures about 4.5" x 4.5".

Here's the inside of the book...

 I used some of my recent supplies - tags from Cosmo Cricket.

 Always love to use Catherine Moore stamps.

 Some embellishments from K&C.

 Papers & embellishments from October Afternoon.

 This is the back cover.

That's it! Next on my list of projects is making a clock from an old book.
