My In-Laws are great lovers of card games – Bridge, Canasta, 500 etc – so I have created some Christmas gift tags with a Card theme.
Supplies and Equipment:
- Old deck of Playing Cards
- red ribbon
- red and white card stock
- double sided tape
- hole punch, circle punch, and a fancy shaped punch
- computer and printer
My kids helped me come up with some corny greetings that fit the card theme, which I printed onto white card stock. I punched them out with a circle punch and mounted them on a piece of red card cut with a shape punch. The greeting was positioned on the playing card with double sided tape. Easy Peasy!!
For another Gift Tag idea, check out my Paint Chip Gift Tags from last year. You can also check out my Advent Calender over at Blue Cricket Design.

Darling idea. I love, love so much to recycle paper. We have a great place in San Francisco where paper is on sale for next to nothing for crafters and artist to buy and use.
