A few weeks ago, I took over the family room coffee table with my Christmas papers, paper punches and ribbon. My husband grumbled when I left my “Christmas crafting stuff” out (for a couple of nights), but it was for a good cause! I was making Christmas gift cards and tags for a P.E.O. boutique. (P.E.O. is a philanthropic educational organization that raises scholarship money to help women further their education).
Anyway, I thought I’d share a few pics, as they were so easy to make! Besides paper, ribbon, glue and rhinestones, I used:
- My Circle punches
- A Scalloped punch
- Martha Stewart’s Holly, Snowflake & Wreath punches
The finished gift tags were packaged in clear cellophane bags and tied with ribbon.
I also made sets of holiday gift cards — using pre-folded placecards that I found at Michael’s.
I used smaller cello bags for packaging and folded a piece of red or green craft paper to seal (staple) the cello bag closed. Very easy!
