A special gift tag just makes the present seem that much more special. Here are some ideas from Scrapbooks etc. Use the supplies you have on hand or come in to Photo Express and we can help you pick some supplies out. Use our die cut machine to cut tags of all shapes and sizes too!

A trio of triangles cut from patterned paper turns into a trio of trees when small cardstock trunks are added. Tie the tag together with baker's twine wrapped around the bottom and looped through the top.

Subtle Snowflake Gift Tag

Create an abstract Christmas tree by punching three photo corners from patterned paper and pairing them with a letter-sticker trunk. Create the look of stitching with a black pen.

Create a Christmas Tree Gift Tag

Cut two triangles from tone-on-tone patterned paper, one slightly smaller than the other. Adhere tiny buttons to the small triangle and layer on top of the large triangle.
Decorate Gifts Tags with Basic Supplies
Start with an ordinary gift-tag shape and let your creativity take over from there. Use basic supplies to transform plain white gift tags into custom tags for holiday gifts.
Editor's Tip: Creating gift tags is a great way to experiment with new techniques on a small scale. Look for new ways to use old supplies, such as building a snowman out of buttons.
Use Scraps to Make Simple Holiday Shapes on Gift Tags
Design by Cathy Blackstone
Rather than spending a fortune to make gift tags for all your holiday presents, try using scraps of cardstock and patterned paper, leftover embellishments, and even spare rub-ons and stickers to create quick tags.
Editor's Tip: Don't reinvent the wheel each time you make a holiday tag. Each person on your list will likely only get one so feel free to repeat a design you love over and over.
Let Gift Tags Double as Ornaments
Design by Cathy Blackstone
This irresistible angel snowman is a super-sweet holiday package accent. Attach feathers to the back of the tag to make the wings more realistic.
Editor's Tip: Give recipients something extra. Put a little added time into the tag and it could double as a cute ornament!
