First of all, I am thrilled and delighted to work on a project with Hallmark. When it comes to gift wrapping, greeting cards and all things fun, fab and personalized, Hallmark makes it so easy and simple to create playful packaging for presents and cards.
I spent a half a day last week creating super easy packaging for Christmas and taking photos and videos too (watch out for them on IG!) It was so much fun! I live for creative moments like this!

I’d like to thank Trina Licauco-Alindogan for inspiring me to create something special for the holidays! That drive home (we just realized we were neighbors!) from a Christmas party that we both attended was serendipity. Thanks too to Kathleen Bautista of Filstar for organizing all the wonderful Hallmark goodies!
Ladies and gentlemen, guess who’s this season’s “Wrap Star,” haha
The Christmas shopping is done. It’s now crunch time! Time to wrap some presents!
For this project, my idea was to create easy, fun and fab gift wrapping designs—minimal effort but maximum impact. This is a fool-proof, no-fuss process for creating wrapped-up presents perfect for last minute gift wrapping.

Hallmark Presents…Wrap Star: Jenni Epperson
A few more days till Christmas and you’re running out of time to wrap last-minute gifts or worse, you haven’t started gift wrapping award-winning Lifestyle blogger (www.JenniEpperson.com), stylist and mom Jenni Epperson has got some easy-peasy ideas to wrap those presents in a snap!
To get started, here’s what you need:
Hallmark musts!
Gift bags, gift tags and meaningful greeting cards are the ingredients to last-minute gift wrapping.
Pretty bows pack a punch. Use these cute gift-toppers to instantly make your present sparkle!
Good things come in boxes. It’s a simple as 1, 2, 3: Unfold the box, seal with a ribbon, et violá!
Send some nostalgia by making your recipient feel “beary cozy” with this warm and fuzzy friend.
Sometimes words don’t come easy — that’s what Hallmark greeting cards are for. They are also cute and festive! These Bic multi-colour pens add fun to writing Christmas messages.
If you want to finish your gift wrapping fast, get your kids these Art Attack markers and pens and they’ll be off your back in no time. Plus, it gets their creative juices flowing!
Let’s get this gift wrapping party started!
The easiest way to gift wrap is the two-step process: Bag it then tag it!
Need a no-fuss, fool-proof way to bundle up your gifts? These printed gift bags are perfect for fast and trouble-free wrapping.
Tip: Design your own gift bag using plain colored bags and place on 3D stickers on the paper bag!
People, listen up! For minimum effort and maximum impact you need to buy collapsible and pre-made boxes and assorted bows as gift toppers!
Box + bow = fun and flirty prezzies
No one told me about the Paper Flower gift topper? So beautiful and so easy to use!
Pre-made boxes + Fancy gift topper = The Ultimate Christmas Box
Sending out some food in a jar or wine? Printed cellophane, sash and bows are the shiz! You can also jazz up the jar with cute chalkboard sticker labels.
3D effect collapsible boxes also make the easiest and most wonderful packaging!
Stop the press! Battery-operated Flashing Bow is this season’s showstopper! Ahhhhhh!!!
It’s a wrap!
