Yes, your sentence is completely correct. But in adjectival clauses, relative pronoun(which) and the to be verb(was). Therefore, you had better say They bought a present wrapped up with colorful paper.

Hi,
I'd say "wrapped up in colourful paper".
I don't know whether "with" is fine; it might be, but I'm used to hearing "in".
A native speaker's point of view would be helpful here.
