I made me some Christmas gift tags today! They are out of the sample paint strips you get at paint stores. The tag is a punch and the different size snowflakes are too. So I just punched out and glued together with a glue stick. I decorated both sides, but left enough room on at least one side to write or stamp "To and From." I have not decided what kind of ribbon or string to put in them yet. I'm thinking some of the jute or cross-stitch floss. Some pumpkin latte and a few girlfriends over ....this would be a fun night, don't you think?

The dry erase pen was from Big Lots for 1.00. So looks like I spent under 3.00! I don't know if you can tell from the picture, but I wrote with a Sharpie on the paper I (heart) you beca...
Love the gift tags! Sounds like a fun girls night! (Nancy)
