Time to create. So glad to have all of you in the swap and I know you will not be disappointed. I will mark beside your name when your tags arrive. If I have not sent you my address let me know and I will do that. Here's what you need to know/send:

Sent by January 10 to my house
Include 6 tags-winter theme
$2
paper or label with your name and address

i will open the package on January 10 and get them out to you asap Have fun!





It's getting close to the holidays and we will all be busy with preparations and the Christmas swaps. I was thinking we could do a Winter tag book. NOT THANKSGIVING, NOT CHRISTMAS, THIS IS WINTER-whites and silvers and blues and the green of pine trees. Anyone interested?
Sign up until November 15, send to me by Jan 10. I will send out an email to everyone between Christmas and New Years as a reminder. Last time we did a tag book I overestimated the cost and had enough left over to buy more envelopes, so the cost will be less this time.
Here's what you will need to send by January 10:

1. 6 winter tags-tags size would be 4-5" long and 2 1/2-2 3/4" wide. close to that size. be sure to put your name, the date and any other information you would like on the back of the tag.
2. $2
3. name & address on a sheet of paper

You will receive 6 tags back, tied into a book. If you make your tags early and want to send them on, that is fine with me. A temptation but I think I can handle it. I will open the tags on January 10 and start putting the books together. Depending on the weather, I will try to get them to the post office by the end of that week.

News-i found tags at the office supply store-office max-one of those. 100 tags for $6. much cheaper than the craft store. they can be cut the right size and used for ATCs also.

Oh girls....I'm so sorry....my tags are finished and I forgot about them. I have no excuse except that we were gone over the holidays, got home on Jan 2 and had endless "Welcome to Medicare" medical appointments for my husband from the 3rd through today :( My brain is missing...lol. I promise I'll get them in the mail tomorrow morning. Please forgive me.

Thanks for the pictures Linda. Now I really can't wait to get the tags! We have had snow for the past two days and are expecting another big storm tonight and tomorrow. So, it finally feels like winter here!

Cheers! ~ Marilyn

Recieved my tags today too! They are gorgeous but I'm too exhausted to concentrate on appreciating them tonight.....have spent the past three days at work cleaning up downed trees and limbs from the ice storm. Will get some sleep and take a much closer look tomorrow. Thanks again Linda Jo for hosting this swap!

Cheers! ~ Marilyn
