Make it: Patterned Paper Gift Tags

For each of these holidays we love to go all out. They drum up memories of growing up and Aleah being greeted with a special pink-and-red package filled with Valentine’s delights like lacy-inspired cookies, handmade Valentine’s cards from her parents, and Irish goodies on St. Patrick’s morning. Green pancakes were also a must! While big hoopla each year seems to typically be Christmas {you know us, we are big fans}, these smaller whimsical holidays are just as sweet and should be treated as such.

Cut your paper down close the size of tag you’d like for easy punching. Take the white card stock and scrapbooking paper and glue together. Once dry cut them out with your punch. We like to make square tags for our gift giving.

Surely you could also use the scraps for a fun little paper photo frame or something cute to put on the fridge.

Take your hole punch and punch out a hole in the corner of the tag {this will mean it dangles at an angle when strung with twine} or at the top.

String through about 8″ of twine.

Voilà. Pretty darling, right? We like this Chevron print as well as a bright citrus design to stand out. We could also see using some cool map paper, a nautical print, or something girly for a bridal shower.
