Items Needed:
- White
cardstock
- Scissors (fancy edged scrapbooking
scissors is a plus, but not necessary), available at: Jo-Ann.com

- Stamp
pads, in various colors (at least have red and green on hand for
Christmas)
- Glitter glue in various colors (at
least have some gold or silver!), available at: CrayolaStore.com
- Your
fingers!
1.
Fold the cardstock into quarters to make 4 equal squares, and cut along
the folds. This will give you 4 squares, enough to make 4 gift tags.
Each card will then be folded in half. The outside is for the design.
The inside is for the message that can be written, such as
"To" and "From".

2. If you are using fancy edged
scissors, use them to cut along the three free edges of the card, while
it is folded, to give nice fancy edges.
3. Now it is time for the
creativity! Use your fingers to stamp various designs. Your fingertip
will make smaller rounder dots, the pad of your finger will make larger
ovals. Use some of these ideas and come up with some of your own. You
can try holly, Christmas trees, stars, ornaments, wreaths, snowmen,
candy canes, etc. Try combining a few different colors too.
4. Use some glitter glue to add
enhancements. For instance, use on Christmas trees to make ornaments,
or to outline various thumbprints. Or just use it to dot around the
design. The glitter glue adds instant sparkle! Allow the gift tags to
dry completely.
