Christmas Tag.....

I so apologize with the lack of posts this week...things have been a little hectic. The weather has been fantastic, lots of bright sunshine, and actually some warmer temperatures....not bathing suit weather but nice fall weather! I am really starting to think Christmas....I needed some Christmas gift tags for the kids this year.....and this is what I came up with!
I cut a piece of cardstock11 x 2 3/4 and scored in two spots, the 1inch mark and the six inch mark, then fold. Glue ribbon on the top of the outside of the tag. Cut a piece of paper for the background so it covers your ribbon. Glue your image to the front and then decorate the inside.
I cut out a snowman from the snowman paper that I used for the front! I like the idea that I can write something with my white gel pen in the inside!

This image was actually given to me from my friend Sue. She said she got them for free HERE.
Thank-you for popping in for a visit!
