Oh, I'm so glad you took a pic, I can't get a good one when it's so cloudy. Everything arrived in perfect condition. I adore both tags (I LOVE plaid) but my absolute fav of the two is the little 'scene' with the tiny animals and tree...it's so cute and so clever!! It brought back great memories of the little mini snow scenes my great-grandparents would set out for decorations, I loved those as a kid. Thank you so much for the beautiful tags and the great memories! xoxo

Love the plaid tags. Are they made from fabric?

They are made from a heavy cardstock, I just love them. I would do my whole Christmas in that plaid!

Thank you Jaiden, I received your tags a couple days ago but I don't think I have been on the forum to thank you. Sorry for taking so long - you did a great job and I love them! I will try to post pics for everyone later but I wanted to acknowledge these before I forgot. I seem to be forgetting a lot lately :(

I have my tags to send out all done as well but won't get to the post office till late Mon. or possible even Tu before work but they will go out here soon! I tried to challenge myself with these this time, to try some techniques that I just haven't gotten to before, and I am happy with the results. Makes me wish I could stay at home and craft all day and not go off to work LOL!

I sent mine out to all three of my swap friends the middle of the month but haven't heard if two of the gals got theirs, I sure hope so. I know I am eagerly awaiting receiving mine!!! I check the mailbox each day :)

Happy you felt the love I put into my tags. I had three partners and divided these tags up between them.

Hi Jill,
No problem with being late. I am out of town until tomorrow anyway. I'm glad you liked the tags. I will be excited to get mine.
This is such a fun thing to do.
Take care.

Catherine, Jaiden recieved her tags yesterday. She LOVES them! She really likes the wee card and wants to know where she can find some like it to share with her friends.
I will try to get pics taken and posted this week.

Sharon,

Just received you tags and them. The pictures do not do them justice with the sparklies, the tiny bell and care that you put into creating them. The teeny, tiny enelope with the holiday wishes really topped off the joy of getting them.

Thank you so much and wonderful holiday wishes to you and yours.

Delicia and Annette/Jaiden, glad you got the tags ok! I had some shipping issues with ATCs a while back so I am wrapping things better for shipping now lol. But I still worry about sending papery things.

Annette, I got those little gift tags a few years back in another Christmas swap, but I think the gal who sent them to me bought them off of Etsy. They were so cute I didn't use them till recently LOL!! I don't know who the maker was though. Was there perhaps a name on the printed design or on the back? Better yet, Jaiden's pretty talented I think.....she could make her own! Just use that envelope as a template and cut it out of whatever paper and make a little card for inside :)

So glad you like them Joan! I had lots of fun making these tags.

I don't get around to blogging much but I have been trying lately to post my creations as I go along and all the tags I made for my three partners for this swap can be seen on my blog now if anyone is interested: http://skeinbrain.blogspot.com/
