Last Minute Gift Wrapping

I woke up at one oclock in the morning, tip-toed to the living room, grabbed all the items that I need to wrap and start packing them nicely as gifts! I know, it is totally last minute, its December 24, and that is the only time I have the chance to wrap without my Hubby getting suspicious and peeking all around, what I am wrapping and all. I just dont want to hand things unwrapped, that would not be meaningful and magical at all. So the best I can, wrapped everything with colorful christmas wrappers, in assorted colors and designed, put some ribbon for added touch and since I could not find the paper tags for labelling the gifts, I used customized cut red ribbons to put the labels (greetings, to and from) and used Sharpie permanent pens to write.

I also pulled out and unpacked the new Selphy CP720 Canon compact printer that came with my digital camera and decided to print some photos during the trips that we made this year and decided to frame it as a gift for my Hubby. I just hope that he will NOT be reading this post until I am done giving him the framed photography of our vacations. But then I think he wont be online today, we have so much things to do in our list for the day. So hopefully my surprise gift for him will not get ruined if he happened to read this post.

Anyways, earlier this year, my hubby and I bought some photo frames that can accomodate two (2) 4x6 each. But the photo papers and ink that came with the new compact printer is only good for five printing. Unfortunately, I made two printing mistakes because its a new printer and i just unpacked and tested it. So I ended up having three photos as I hoped, made two mistakes, overall that made me one photo short to finished my photo project for the gift. I will just explained the whole oppsy surprise gift escapade with one lacking photo as soon as my Hubby open the gift.

As far as the performance of Canon CP720 printer, it is very very satisfactory! I am so happy with the quality of the print, very fast printing speed and yet the quality of the photos are definitely awesome. So nice, I am so glad I decided to keep it instead of selling it on eBay because I already have regular printer and thought that I do not need another one, but seeing the result and the performance of the print, I am definitely happy I kept it.

Merry Christmas To All!
