I make a lot of removable tag-style cards for the holidays as they are very quick and easy and well received. The recipient can choose to use it on a package or use as a bookmark. To/From is stamped on the back. They are 3.5 x 6 so one doesn't have to write a lot inside and they fit into a check-size envelope. I first make a bunch of BGs with a Distress smoosh technique in one session. A few stamps, make the focal points/scene, I choose an EF and then usually hit the tops and/or edges with a highlight or contrasting ink. I slip-knot string or twine through the tag and mount with photo corners. I love doing these and would say that these have become one of my holiday traditions.

Lovely tag with the texture. I too always notice your photo corners - I even finally found a similar die. Great stamp, that pile of logs all ready for keeping the fire going.

Love all the details on that tag, Lori. The embossing and sponged colors give this a nice rustic look. Thanks for adding another beauty to the challenge, my friend!

What a lovely idea, sending your holiday greetings with something the recipient can use if they wish. Oh, and the the tag/card is cute, too love those colors.
