Baby Gift all wrapped up

Happy Sunday!  We are having a snowstorm over here!  Quite a bit and snow and it is still snowing!  Today there is a baby shower for my good friend Jen who just had her first baby, a girl!  I am not 100% sure if I will be able to go as it is out of town about a half hour drive and the weather isn't the greatest.  But I really want to go!  I don't want to miss this!  This is the gift and how I wrapped it:

I have always wanted to try and stamp my own paper for gifts and a few weeks ago I saw this paper on sale so I picked it up!  I had wanted to do a bag but Michael's didn't have any in stock.  I stamped the paper first (didn't measure right and stamped so much more than needed) with brown, white and the dark pink ink with the Sassafras stamp set. (Oh I found the white ink pad my son lost for me, it was with my paper not dried out or anything either!) I wanted to use full image stamps.  I tried wrapping some ribbon around but it just didn't look that good, it cut off the images and such. I like it but am unsure.  What do you think?  It doesn't look all cheap with the kraft paper does it?

I made the card/tag after.  I popped the giraffe with foam squares and stamped the Kraft paper with HA's cling dots and used the sentiment "so happy for you" sideways (love how it looks!)  I used that sentiment since I did give her a more traditional baby card when I visited her in the hospital (hmm I don't think I shared that one yet!)  and I think the sentiment is fitting.  I am also going to enter this card/tag into Lucy's Polka Dot challenge as I used polka dots not only on the kraft but in the ribbon too!  Lucy is so amazing!  So talented and so kind!  I really wanted to take part in her challenge, and have yet another idea too!

Well I better go and decide if I will brave the weather!
