Well actually, I kinda cheated. You see, I remembered having seen a YouTube video of gift wrapping using scraps that were too small - see here - and that's the technique I used. I had to test on a piece of printer paper first as to not make too many folds in my cardstock, but eventually I made it fit. I then stamped a couple of the darling pandas from Simon says stamp Party like a panda, along with balloons, confetti and sentiments. I didn't forget my friends birthday, but I did foresee it possibly would arrive late due to Covid-19, just never imagined 3 months late. I cut out her name with Alten...
