& gift wrap paper by Cavallini Papers & Co Inc,
Finally one last card, as this is all that remains of my used sheet of wrapping paper.
Day 36
This whole series was inspired by the wonderfully designed gift wrap paper from Cavallini,
which was chosen by my sister to wrap a gift to me several years ago.
I carefully unwrapped the gift to avoid damaging the paper as best I could.
At the time, I didn't know what project I would use it for,
I just knew that I needed to keep it for something special.
So just a few weeks ago,
when I was thinking about joining in with the ICAD challenge,
I looked at the used, torn & wrinkled paper
& just knew this was the right moment to use it.
Many thanks to my sister & to Cavallini.
This is all that is left.
