Countdown to Christmas

Last weekend I was blown away when I saw a sign that said, "Only 7 more weekends for Christmas shopping."  OMG - that sounds like Christmas is almost next week! 

Then I started thinking about gifts, shopping, wrapping ... stress....   Fortunately, I have participated in a few Christmas card challenges so I have quite a few cards ready for mailing.  Yay!   Most of those cards have been posted already.  I also have a few cards that have not been posted and some gift tags, as well.  

So, for the next few days or weeks, I will be randomly posting my newest creations.  Hope you enjoy them and get some ideas for yourself.  Lots of quick creations, too.

The first offering is a couple of wine bottle tags.  Wine makes a nice hostess gift or a great gift for that person who has everything!  Add a little color and a unique gift tag to the bottle.  Of course, you can put these bottle tags on any bottle (soft drink, wine, liquor, alcohol, beer, etc.).




Wine tags are especially easy to make.  These tags are just a rectangle cut out of Christmas card stock.  Punch a hole in the top and score the top piece.  You can add a punch circle edge and decorate the bottom piece with die cuts, foam cut outs or a sentiment.

You can size the rectangle to any length you want.    My tags measure:

3" x 7"
score at 2 1/2"
1 1/2" circle punch


More in a couple days.  Have a great week.
