Elegant but easy Christmas gift tags



Since it is Monday, I have a project made for the Bitten By the Bug 2 blog. Today's challenge calls for gift tags made using your cricut. I used the Merry and Bright cartridge and a few Close To My Heart embellishments.

I love making tags and they are so easy to make. You can really dress them up or keep them simple. I try to keep the ones I put on my brothers' gifts VERY simple. They do not seem to appreciate the time I put into this stuff.















 This week's prize is the Edge to Edge cartridge!! The winner will be announced on Sunday the 22nd.
To win:
1) Follow this blog or subscribe via email.
2) Leave a comment under one or all posts this week for maximum chances. See HERE if you don't know how to leave a comment

  22. Your tags are beautiful in their simplicity! I agree, I hate to see something that you spent time on just get crumpled up. I am afraid my packages look pretty plain. The ribbons and embellies are so perfect with these tags.
