Christmas Tags!!!!!
Okay, so I got up this morning thinking that I would wrap some presents before Trent woke up, seeing that I would have plenty of time. I start to wrap, finish the last present, go for the tage and then I realised that I didn't have any. Okay, so how did I not know that I didn't have any tags??? Likely I will find them as the last gift is being wrapped. I decide that after working the crazy days at school with concerts and shopping parties etc, and christmas parties that I have attended that today is an inside day...a "do not leave the house unless you absolutle must" day, so I think I will make some. Now, I'm thinking bulk here, and trying to keep in mind that they get ripped up and tossed in the garbage. I don't save them anyway...is that bad?
I use stamps and simple white paper. I choose 3 differnt colors so that I can some some tage in each color and then I begin. I do some second generation stamping and call it a day! Well wait, it wouldn't take that lond to actually make little tags instead of rectangular tags would it? Here is the answer: if you do not have a tag maker then yes, tracing the top of a tag onto all the made tags does take much longer....
so after doing about 8 I decide to stick with rectangles and again call it a day. Whilt they are cute, they are not overly fancy, but again they go in the garbage with the wrapping paper.

I bought 99 cent tags again this year. The sticker kind . 3 different packages.
Geez, it sucks to be the laziest person in this family.
The tags are very pretty, Vick.
