I was intrigued when I was contacted by an incredibly delightful and helpful representative of Giftskins who asked if I would be interested in featuring their personalized wrapping paper on Cody's blog. She "had me" when she steered me towards their Personalized Pet Wrapping Paper page!
I was like a kid in a candy store! What pet parent/owner DOESN'T want to see their pet featured on wrapping paper?
The design choices are adorable, which made it difficult to choose just one, but I FINALLY chose the Paw Print Stripes Gift Wrap, because I wanted wrapping paper that would be good for ALL occasions, not just for the holidays! Here is the style that I chose BEFORE it was customized with Cody's photo:
From Giftskins.com: "Have everyone howling with your own greeting and up to 4 unique photos. Measures 19.75 x 76.75in. One roll will wrap three medium size gifts."
The customization process of this paper could NOT have been easier! I picked out the style that I wanted, chose the photo that I wanted to include, followed the super easy instructions for adding a photo, and I was off to the races! I was shocked and pleased by how quickly a proof was sent to me for my approval, the ENTIRE process was a breeze!
Here it is!
When the full size roll of gift wrap arrived at my home, (which was also fast!), I was delighted with the quality. This paper is NOT flimsy, it will not tear with the slightest movement, as many inferior wrapping paper products do. The wrapping paper is a substantial, sturdy weight that held up well with the many contortions that I go through when wrapping a gift! While it is NOT flimsy, it also is easy to work with. On the opposite side of the paper is a grid that makes cutting the paper into a straight line (for smaller packages) easy peasy! Even for me! No more jagged cutting! I can cut it into a straight line!
Who WOULDN'T want to open a gift featuring the adorable Cody? While the gift wrap is FABULOUS for ALL gift-giving occasions, I was also thinking about how cool this would be as a background in a photo frame! You could trim the paper to fit a large frame and then put various small photos all around it and frame it! You could cover books with it, use it for scrapbooking, etc!
Thanks to Giftskins I am now going to kiss my dull gift bags and tissue paper good-bye. "They had me at hello..."
