Gift Tags

9:30 pm - 12/02/2005
There is a scissor-wielding butcher on the loose!
And she's cutting up her old Christmas cards!



I have always felt bad about throwing away cards people have given me so I kept them all from last year. This year I found them and was struck with a great idea. I cut out the pictures on the front and punched holes in them to make gift tags for gifts. I'm going to do this all the time now because I think they look great!

I saved mine to put in scrapbooks ~ which works really well for a wedding scrapbook, but you might not need a ton of Christmas designs. This is a *GREAT* idea :D

So simple yet so elegant...

I love making those, too! It all started with my grandmother making them. She was my influence on reusing holiday cards...or any old cards in general.

Yours look great!

OMG. I want to *hug* that card with the frogs on it! So cute!

I cut up my cards to make new cards, but this is a great idea for the leftovers and stuff I can't use! I hadn't thought of gift tags...

Your presents are wrapped so purdy!! Give me lessons? Pleeeease?? *puppy dog eyes*
