Lawnscaping Challenge: Tags

 Here's this week's challenge over at The Lawnscaping Challenge Blog...

 

"You can make any sort of tag for any occasion   Birthdays, Baby Showers, Teacher gift, Christmas, New Years, thank you, etc.... It doesn't have the be the traditional type tag either. Some of our members made adorable projects using a tag on a card of scrapbook layout!" 

Here are mine:
