Crafters Anonymous christmas tag swap

 Christmas tags - an absolutely necessary item to dress up a gift.
Earlier this month I made nine christmas tags to swap with the ladies in my online crafting group.
 I try to make them all the same, (well similar) to each other using the same ingredients, but they all have some little quirk or difference.
I have used the Build a wheels from the holiday catalogue Snowflake Party and Good Cheer on the background. I simply rolled the wheels in crumb cake and Early Espresso inks on the two tags die.
My ornament punch adds the point of interest with a champagne glimmer paper scallop circle and Merry Christmas 3/4" circle layered on top.
I have layered my gumball green stitched satin ribbon on top of stamped white cotton.
And the scalloped Tulle ribbon makes a soft bow at the top.
 And these are the tags I received in return. Such a variety of styles and ideas that are so pretty you could hang a few of them on the Christmas tree as decorations.
My collection of tags is from: Carole Stedman,  Dawn Fergusson,  Annette Sulivan,  Tania Cordie, Suzanne Cook, Keryn Suthers, Tia Routledge, Anne Brignall and Nerida Carter.
