Wreath tags


Good morning all! Thank goodness it's almost Friday...

I made these tags last night at the request of one of the parents in the HSA (Home School Association). Tonight is Parent/Teacher night at our school, and we like to welcome the new families that joined us with plates of cookies. The person in charge wanted a nice fall tag to go with each plate with the family's name on it and the school's information on the back.



Because my PTI order came yesterday I could not resist using the new wreath set. I LOVE it. 
These were quick and simple, with not too many embellishments.
I wrote the family's name, used a stamp from First Fruits to stamp the word "family", stamped the wreath and the "welcome" from that set, and then used Simple Alphabet to stamp our school name.

Some inking on the edges and a bit of terracotta tile twill and I called it done!


Thanks for stopping by today, hope you have a good one!
