Blue and White Teardrop Backing PaperCompleted by Gwyneth George

I printed the sheet onto good quality, 250gsm, white card. AFter trimming off the white area I scored the card to make a box of 1" height by 2" depth. After cutting and sticking in place with template double sided tape I simply decorated the box with a row of fine gold border peel-offs and some pre-shaped flowers.

This is an ideal way to present a gift, such as hand made jewellery or chocolate.

I hope that this example shows you one other possibility for using this backing design in addition to using in cardmaking. In fact, making a card using the same backing to give with the gift makes the whole thing co-ordinated and even more special.
