Annette...I am definitely a re-purposer that is for sure! I am sure that yours will be much better than mine. I felt
like a kid in Kindergarten trying to make those tags. Now I know why I buy them at the store! LOL

Bless you for being so kind!

Love and Hugs,
Peggy

Kim . . . I think that we SHOULD post pics of the tags we received. That way we can "share" in the enjoyment.

Soooooo, Taggers . . . please post pics of the tags you receive.
THANKS! Looking forward to seeing!!

Just a little warning about mailing tags and mail art. You need to add extra postage if you stamp or mark them "Please Do Not Bend". I got a call from my post office informing me regarding that. I had been marking envelopes like that for years, but now they wanted more postage. Maybe you could check with your local p.o. At this time of year, you don't want your artwork being kicked back for more postage or, worse yet, your recipient having to make up the difference.

Good info Sharon . . . I have ongoing dialogue with my post office. AND, we have the ABSOLUTELY GROUCHIEST mail carrier . . . . he just makes things WWWAAAAAAYYYYY more difficult than is necessary.

If in doubt, add a little extra. The "extra" applies to "lumpy" too . . .
HAPPY "TAGGING"

Annie and Kim...those are beautiful! Simple but elegant!
The ones I made looked more like Kindergarten Art on steroids!
And I'm not joking!

Peggy

Catherine and Sharon,

Glad you received your tags. I was very excited about this swap as it is the first time for me, so I hurried to get them made and mailed. They were lots of fun to make, sure hope you liked them. Now, I feel like a little kid watching the mail box ... am really, really looking forward to receiving mine. (can you hear me giggling???)

I am mailing out the tags today that I made for BobbinRobin and Urban Chickie. I had such fun working on these. This is something that I had not dabbled in before but, now I am really into it and checking out the scrapbooking, card making classes.

Brenda...you are kind! Thank You! I love doing Mail-Art but found the tags such a small space to
work with-in. But maybe I will try again sometime. I want to see more of them posted and can't wait
to receive yours and my other swap partners tags. I am hoping for some inspiration from everyone.

Gail Springman, I did receive your second envelope of tags - and these were in good shape! You are sooo kind to replace the broken ones - I know it took alot of your time and love. I REALLY like the snowman constructed of buttons - so adorable. Thank you, Thank you!!!

AnnetteI got your beautiful Gift Tags today. They are so simple and pretty...not over done like mine were! I love them! Took pictures but my computer is on the fritz and don't want to upload all my pictures on to my husbands computer. So, if you took any pictures please post them for me! If not we will just have to wait until I get my computer fixed...or get a new one! Thanks again! Loved them!!!

Blessings,
