Gift Packaging - Brown & Blue


I've mentioned before that I enjoy making my own gift packaging, although I'm not sure the recipients really appreciate or even pay that much attention to the package. Still, I like to do it, especially if the gift is tiny. The package pictured here is nice for things like jewelry or cash, but I think it's most commonly used for treats, such as Hershey's Kisses and other individually wrapped candies.

This particular package is called a sour cream container, after the little pouches of sour cream that you frequently see in restaurants. You can find a well-illustrated tutorial at Splitcoaststampers.

The creative prompt over at Wednesday Stamper this week is brown combo, so I chose a blue and brown color palette for this item, with a single stamped flower for the tag.
