10 Easy Christmas Gift Tags and Cards

November 5, 2012 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 6 Comments

We love to make Gift Cards from  recycled supplies or items already in our craft stash. Since we began A Spoonful of Sugar back in 2008, we have made a variety of Christmas gift cards. It was fun going back through our archives to see all the different styles we have used over the past few years. That is what we love most about blogging – keeping a record of all of our crafting and baking.
We have grouped all of our Christmas Gift Tag and Cards ideas together in this post as some of our newer readers may not have seen them all. We hope we can inspire you to get your crafting on for Christmas!
Get the kids involved – many of our ideas are perfect for kids or for when you need to mass produce cards/tags. We think it adds a nice home made touch to your Christmas gift.

    I love all your tag and card projects! I was going to make that paint chip tag when you first posted it, but I could never find a tree punch. Now there are so many on the market that I might have better luck. I have made the recycled card tags, which was quite fun. Definitely want to try more of these for this year’s round of gifts.
