Cute little gift tags...

I made a few sets of gift tags to sell at the thrift store and this was one of those sets.

 I started out with these dies. The set of six circle dies on the left is fairly new, but the Quickutz ornament die on the right is really, really old! I think it was one of the first dies I ever bought when I first got my Cuttlebug (which bit the dust a couple of years ago).

I first cut out 6 of the round ornaments from different colors of cardstock and 6 from white cardstock, along with six toppers from silver hologram cardstock. Then I used the decorative circle dies to cut a design out of each of the colored ornament shapes.

Finally I glued the white shapes to the backs of the colored shapes and embellished.

Here's a picture of the completed tag fronts. I thought they really turned out cute. I added just a very few embellishments, like a gem in the middle of the snowflake, some Nuvo Drops on the tree, some Wink of Stella on the candy cane, etc.

On the back, I used my very old wood-mounted stamp for the "to" and "from," and I added a length of red and white baker's twine to each one. Easy peasy!

I really enjoy making tags. They're so quick and easy and really seem to sell well at the thrift shop. 

I'm going to try to squeeze in a few posts this week about some of the Christmas cards I've made recently. 

I also made a little Christmas gift for some of my neighbors that I want to share with you, so I hope you'll come back and visit.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.
