Another Simple Tag

One last tag for ya... This one is super simple.  I think I was getting ready to go and realized I did not have a tag for my gift.  Five minutes later and I had cranked this out.  Simple, yet pretty and personal.

More Matching Tags

I was really thrilled with my tag-matching-wrapping-paper success, so I continued with that theme.  Here are two presents for my in-laws last year.

  

I just chose some colors out of the wrapping paper and used those to make a simple, graphic tag.

  

 Here is the gift for my father-in-law.

 Same tag, just different color scheme to match the gift bag.

How crazy is it that my mother-in-law and father-in-law share the same birthday, just one year apart?  :)

Hello Kitty Birthday Tag

The birthday girl was having a Hello Kitty birthday party, and I just *happened* to notice that the wrapping paper I used on her gift matched the colors of the Hello Kitty invitation quite nicely.  So....

Don't you just love coincidences?  It truly does look like I coordinated it on purpose!   I just cut out the kitty and balloons from the front of her invitation, and stuck it onto a die cut with a little stamping.  Voila, instant matching tag! 

And if you thought it couldn't get any cuter....think again! 

Gah!  Four year old handwriting!  Too much, too much!  :)

Happy Birthday Owl Tag

If you have read my blog at all, you know that I love to use tags instead of birthday cards on my presents.  I love the smaller canvas, playing around with matching the colors of the gift wrap/bag, and how fast they are to complete when in a time crunch.  :)  Plus they feel so *useful*. 

Here is the back, ready to write on.

Owls are still pretty trendy right now, so this tag fits right in!

Wild About Baby Cards

 Here are some adorable animal baby cards, both pink and blue versions.

These cards were pretty much a CASE of another card I saw, but of course now I do not have the link to the original.  If you were the original designer, let me know!  :)  

 Here is some detail.  Cutting out little elements and adding dimensionals underneath really provided that extra *oomph*.  :)
