CONTEST : Share with us your own handmade papercraft || @manuelhooks

Wrapping a gift with paper.

Paper craft is a collection of various skills involving art made by hand using paper as the primary artistic medium. We all love receiving gifts, and a gift will always be appreciated though the value will go high up if it's well wrapped when presented. I'll be taking you through the process of wrapping a gift. This time the gift is a toy car. And the skill involves folding the paper around the gift.

[ Step 1 ]
All the box steadily in place and fold the wrapping paper over it. Cut the cardboard in such a way that it covers all the surface area of the gifts. but there must be no overlapping areas.

[ Step 2 ]
Hold and press down on all folded sites as shown in the picture below. This creates a good finishing and this will also help hold down the gift in positions when you are wrapping it.

[ Step 3 ]
Cutting out a strip of paper, the size of the top cover, from the second cardboard paper. This is meant to cover the top, and some parts of the left and the right side of the packet. It also provides the second colour.
