Tis the Season!

Yes, I know Thanksgiving comes before Christmas. 

And I KNOW I shouldn't be posting Christmas projects until at least Thanksgiving Night. 

But, in our house Thanksgiving really doesn't exist. 

You see, my Husband is British.  He's one of those! lol.  

I mean we do celebrate with a Turkey, and stuffing and Mince Meat Pies.  Because well, we have to eat.  

To be truthful, we do have a Thanksgiving Dinner.  But with there really just being the two of us I really don't cook a HUGE meal.  Our daughter who is 22 years old usually goes to her boyfriend's family house and then she comes home to "graze".  So cooking a 22 pound Turkey just doesn't work, unless we want LOADS of leftovers.  And, believe me, with what I DO Cook there are still LOADS of leftovers! 

Now... back to my project! 

For my first November Project for My Scrap Chick I made Jar Tags (from the Canning Jar Preserves SGV File)! 

These super cute tags can be used year round!  Not just for Christmas.  Just alter the paper and the colors and bam you have a cute little tag for your homemade goodie! 

For my tags I used the Joyous Collection from Authentique Paper (I'm an Authentique Junkie!  love Authentique!)  You could actually make the tags with scraps of your paper too! 


Here are some close ups of each of the tags




(This one is my favorite because I LOVE polka dots!) 


The tags all flip open.  There is plenty of room for you to write a little note to you recipient. 

I also added a little stamp that I bought at Hobby Lobby.  The "Homemade Just For You" stamps makes a cute little addition to the tag.  And of course I stamped it on Kraft Paper to match the base paper of the tag.  

These tags are super easy and super quick to make! 

Here's a link to where they are in the store: 



Hope you liked my tags!

Love your colorful
canning jar tags. Kraft paper for the card base really adds a nice homemade feel.
