Gift Wrapped Cards

I thought I'd try get a little creative in wrapping my gran's cards that I made for her b'day, so instead of using ordinary wrapping paper, I did this:
I wrapped it in plastic (sandwich baggie to be exact...it's the best I had!), and taped it at the back to get it snuggly fit around the cards (I won't be showing the back though 'cause it's not a very neat taping job, it being a baggie 'n all).  Then I tied a ribbon around it and made a flower using doilies and a decorated glass pebble which I modge podged with a rose picture:
 
Ok, maybe not AS fun as wrapping paper since you don't get a big surprise to see what you're unwrapping, but I think it's a cute idea. :)
