My share for today is 4 Elongated Tags/Treat Holder/Gift Card Holders that I designed using Stampin' Up's This Christmas and Candy Cane Lane Designer Series Paper, Hang Your Stocking, Jar of Cheer, Tin of Tags, Peaceful Pines, Oh What Fun, Snow Place and Shake & Celebrate Stamp Sets and Stitched Shapes, Perfect Pines, Shaker Shapes and Snow Friends Framelits Dies.

Let's take a look:

  
I designed these elongated Tags/Treat Holders/Gift Card Holders to put on top of the larger Christmas presents that I have under the Christmas Tree.  I haven't decided if I'm going to put a Baker's Twine Hanger on them yet or not.  They look so cute on the presents and, so far, my two cat's, Boris & Natasha, are leaving them alone!!!  Wish me luck on that one!!!

  
The Tag Base is 2" x 12" (just a smidgen shy of 2" so it fits in your punch).  I punched one end with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch and the other end from the Triple Banner Punch.

I scored and folded the Tag Base at 3-3/4" from the tip of the Scalloped end.
