I decided, rather than 6 of the same design & image, I'd do 3 each of two different ones. Yes, I'm a bit of a rebel. LOL I stamped my images in Soft Granite ink onto smooth bristol paper. I die cut them with the Mama Elephant tag dies, & used my Tombow markers & a damp paintbrush to color the images.
To make these tags reusable, I die cut another tag for each from the Nellie's Choice "Tag" set. I stamped the to & from (from "Color Layering Wreath") in Morning Mist ink.
I added the tag reinforcers--die cut with one of the "Tags a Lot" dies from red cardstock--to each main tag. After the glue dried on those, I punched through the holes with a 1/8" hole punch. For the smaller to/from tags, I punched 1/4" circles from the same red cardstock, and glued them to the tags. I initially tried punching through one of those with a 1/8" hole punch, after the glue dried. But that pulled the circle off the tag. :( So I just used a 1/16" hole punch and punched 2 holes together, so I could fit my baker's twine through. Finally, I threaded grey & white baker's twine through the tag holes (I had soaked the ends of each piece with glue to keep them from fraying) & tied the ends in a knot.

These are adorable! I love the House Mouse image of the three with bows on their heads, in fact, I have that image but haven't used it yet. Love how you colored them, adorable!
