Christmas Gift Tags



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?
