The draping folds show white because this paper is striped on one side &amp; white on the other. I also added a small white die cut bow on top. The textured white front was a leftover &amp; had the square already cut out so I backed it w\/ more of the stripe paper &amp; liked how it looked like a present so I added a white strip down the center &amp; attached the bow on top.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Here&#8217;s a look at the inside.<\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Origami-Christmas-Bow-inside-07650.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-21165\" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Origami-Christmas-Bow-inside-07650.jpg\" alt=\"Origami Christmas Bow inside 07650\" width=\"400\" height=\"517\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Origami-Christmas-Bow-inside-07650.jpg 508w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Origami-Christmas-Bow-inside-07650-136x175.jpg 136w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Origami-Christmas-Bow-inside-07650-310x400.jpg 310w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Origami-Christmas-Bow-inside-07650-465x600.jpg 465w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Thanks so much for stopping by!<\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Julie2-sig.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12715\" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Julie2-sig.png\" alt=\"Julie2 sig\" width=\"134\" height=\"50\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Supplies:<\/span><\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"90%\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"6\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody id=\"collapseobj_photoinfo\">\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><b>Stamps:\u00a0ODBD \u2013<a href=\"https:\/\/ourdailybreaddesigns.com\/index.php\/new-releases\/2015\/2015-october\/christmas-tunes.html\" target=\"_blank\">Christmas Tunes<\/a><br \/>\n<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><b>Paper:<\/b>\u00a0textured white, red\/white stripe dp (Cricut)<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><b>Ink: \u00a0<\/b>Versafine onyx<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><b>Accessories:<\/b>\u00a0<strong>ODBD\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ourdailybreaddesigns.com\/index.php\/csbd75-flourished-star-pattern-die.html\" target=\"_blank\">Flourished Star Pattern<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/ourdailybreaddesigns.com\/small-bow-dies.html\" target=\"_blank\">Small Bow<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ourdailybreaddesigns.com\/index.php\/csbd55-vintage-label-dies.html\" target=\"_blank\">\u00a0<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ourdailybreaddesigns.com\/index.php\/csbd56-vintage-flourish-pattern-dies.html\" target=\"_blank\">Vintage Flourish Pattern <\/a>(inside), <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourdailybreaddesigns.com\/csbd51-beautiful-borders-dies.html\" target=\"_blank\">Beautiful Borders<\/a> (inside)\u00a0dies<\/strong>,\u00a0Spellbinders A2 matting basics A &amp; B, square dies<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 This is for today&#8217;s Inspiration Challenge (IC517) &amp; also for Robin&#8217;s\u00a0HYCCT1520 challenge, Candy Stripers.
