-
-
Draw a simple shape, such as a fish, a flower or a curvy earthworm on the card stock.
-
With a craft knife, cut out the shape (a parent's job) and discard it. Next, glue the card stock onto a slightly larger piece of card stock that's been cut from a contrasting color.
-
Use markers to color in the design and print the name of the person who will be receiving the gift.
-
Make a hole in one end of the tag and tie a loop of ribbon through it for tying the tag to its package. Finally, laminate the tags with Con-Tact paper to make them long lasting.
