Paper Gifts: Boxed Gift Tags

Hello everyone... its Windy back to share another paper crafted gift idea... boxed gift tags. I try put together several of these when I make my holiday cards so I can stick them in gift baskets and bags with other items like baked goods or candy throughout the season.  Just a little something to enhance the treats that I make for our neighbors and teachers.
Christmas Trees, Jingle Bells, Cranberry Sauce, Happy Christmas and Sleigh Stripe patterned paper (Christmas Sleigh collection), buttons (Papertrey Ink), felt flowers (Hero Arts), flower centers (Prima), clear stamps (Mega Mixed Messages from Papertrey Ink), Ink (Stewart Superior)

When I create gifts like these in mass, I keep it simple. These tags are created with a scallop punch, a circle punch, a corner rounder, a few sentiment stamps and embellishments. By using punches, even kiddos can help by punching or assembling its parts. My girls always want to help and this is the kind of stuff that we love to do together during the holidays.

Don't forget to stop by the GCD Studio's blog on December 3rd to see Donna Salazar's new collection! See you there:)

Come check out my posts that started yesterday on men's cards. The idea was to make them nice, understated, and easily mailed using "forgotten" supplies! I made almost 500! I'll be running the posts all throughout this month! Thanks again for sharing!
