Description:

Im one of those people who like to stack the presents under the tree until it's jammed packed. the problem with that is that the bows get really smashed and then they dont look so hot when you hand them out. in the last two years, Ive been changing up my game plan and have been making decorative tags that are really special and when the reciever gets it they usually put them on their own tree the next year because they are so ornate. Ive made gingerbread houses, holly with berries ,christmas fans and snowment. all are on heavy cardstock so actually could stand up over time being used as an ornament. since this is an ornament group...I would like to make 10 special tags for one partner.

Each partner will create 10 Christmas tags. Each tag will have the words To: and From: on the back. Each tag will have a hole at one end with a ribbon or twine tied to it so they can be taped to a gift. Please, no staples. Please make these really special. they dont have to be all the same but you could actually send all the same design if you wanted to. They can be any size you want as long as they are big enough to write the recipiants name and the givers name on the back. you could even put the year on the back if you like. They also need to be mounted or made from a heavy cardstock. (this can be a backing if you choose to use fabrics or papers) you can glitter, stamp, emboss...what ever your creative heart delights in, just do your best as this will brighten up someone's christmas gift this year!

What a wonderful idea. I am looking forward to seeing how cute they come out.

I would prefer that my tags not have the year on them - sometimes I don't use them all right away (I save them for special people only!) and if they have this year on them I would not comfortable giving them to anyone next year. Thx. (";)

Would it be okay to use foam sheets instead of card stock?

samjowers 08/22/2011 #

not having the year is fine. I guess foam sheets would be fine. Not sure really what you are talking about. as long as they look nice and not just thrown together and you can write on them.
