Gift wrap created from brown paper and paper napkins using a collage technique

I wanted some unique gift wrap for a wedding gift and decided to make some using a collage technique with brown paper and paper napkins.  I trimmed a piece of brown paper to 24" x 24".  Next I dug through my paper napkin stash and dug out several that included purple and green.  I separated the top layers off and then tore the napkins into pieces - 2" x 3" or so.  I put them on a tray and lay my brown paper on a surface protected with plastic.  I mixed some white glue with some gold glitter glue and added water enough to thin it down to runny.  I started adding the paper napkin pieces to the brown paper by spreading some glue, adding a piece of paper napkin and then adding more glue over the top to seal it.  I continued the process overlapping as I went until the whole surface of the brown paper was covered and I only had a few pieces of napkin left.  I left it to dry for a few hours with a fan/heater blowing over it.  Once it was dry I ironed it flat and trimmed out a 12" 12" piece to use to wrap my gift.  You can see below how nicely it worked for wrapping the gift and I now have all sorts left over to use for backgrounds for cards, etc.  It was so fun to be working on an artsy project using glue and paper!!!!!!   The glitter in the glue gave it just a bit of sparkle which was nice.     Therese
