Hello again! Welcome to another Crafty Festival Of Christmas blog hop. A refresher … I am making and sharing holiday projects every Friday until Christmas in an event my friends and I are calling the ‘CRAFTY Festival of Christmas’. Every week we will feature a different theme.

Check out our previous hops:

Snarky or Snowy cards
Fancy fold or Mass production projects
This week our theme is Gift card holders or tags

I' love decorating gifts and this year and I tagging all those gifts with a little ornament. I like how it pushes the gift a little bit farther.

My mantra this season: Simple, Simple, SIMPLE! Simple is key. It doesn’t take much to add a little handmade flair to those gifts. My Christmas crafting in general is very simple because it is such a busy time of year.

These candy cane ornaments have been dressed up with a few stamped images from the Winter Gifts stamp set and sparkly enamel dots. Easy peasy!

This next set of simple tags incorporates a few craft store goodies (tiny ornaments and plastic fir sprigs). These have been hot glued onto super thick white card stock. The card stock has been punched into a tag shape and stamped with a simple ”to: from:” sentiment. I made a dozen or so of these and have them at the ready to attached to any gift. The generic color scheme makes this easy to coordinate.

I also made a few more gift card holders. Again, simple is key. These gift card holders are folded from wood paper and have a tiny bottle brush tree tied to the plaid belly band. The belly band slides on and off the gift card holder easily.

The gift card holder paper measurement is 3” x 6”. I have scored at 1.75” and 4.25”. These are roll folded. Then, with a hobby blade, I added a few slots on the interior to hold the gift card.

Thanks for visiting and have a great week! The full blog link up can be found below.
