I can't remember where I saw it but someone took their old Christmas cards and recycle them into tags. So that's what I set out to do. The design on the card pretty much determined how many tags I could get from one card. Some it was only one while others were two or three
My absolute favorite was a card that I used four different sized tag dies and was able to get five tags out of one card
These were all cards that I got two years ago. Now I'll have to see how many tags I can get out of the cards I got this past Christmas.

What a great idea. They are actually too pretty to give away!
Awesome work!!!
my favortie is the one you got five out of. they are beautiful. I like all of them and what a super idea to do this. I wish i could show my mother all the things you do with your crafts . she was so IN to crafts, but with no money to spend hers were all really home made. when she died there was a box of cards, every card she ever got in a box
Those are wonderful! It makes me want the cuddle bug and those dies.
What a GREAT idea, Ann!! I love the tags pictured here. Your craftiness on Saturday sounds "just right"!! ~Andrea xoxoxo
Oh my! I'll have to think about doing this! What a fun project!
I have used old Christmas cards for tags, too! But I just cut squares and fold them in half! Not very imaginative I know!
So cute. How fun too. You're so crafty.
Have a fabulous day off, Ann. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to Gibbs. ♥♥♥
Cute idea! I like those last ones a LOT!
That sounds like a great project. Not too much work, but beautiful results. ❤️
Oh! I don't have that little tool butttt!! What a neat idea Ann!
I love these! You're SO handy!

Such a cool project! Always seems like a shame to just toss out all those pretty cards.
awesome
but the minute I hear simple and quick - I find myself down a tunnel, seeing how many I could make (of anything) be it tags or something else "simple" - to see how many I could do, scouting around for more base material...and before I know it I have way more than a shoebox of xyz!
They came out all looking nice and so very handy for future Christmas gifts! Great way to be a little bit creative!!
betty
Now that's a great idea. I love the tags from Christmas cards.
What a great idea to turn these cards into gift tags. They look beautiful! I'm going to start looking at my old cards. Thanks for the idea Ann :)
That's a really clever idea.
I love this idea! I've been meaning to get one of those die cut machines :)
