Intro
Christmas is coming soon, have you prepared your Christmas gifts? Want to make your own Christmas gift wrapping? We have prepared a lot of gift tag Christmas ideas and how to make them for your reference. There is no more touching moment than seeing someone happily holding the gift tag Christmas you made!
We have done a series of articles on Christmas gift packaging before. You can go back and see how to make a Christmas gift package, but today’s article focuses more on Christmas gift tags. In recent years, Christmas gift tags have been very popular in gift packaging. In fact, Christmas tags are small cards with the recipient’s name and blessings written on them, just like the small card inside when sending flowers.
Gift tags Christmas include Christmas elements, can reflect the holiday atmosphere, and are often the most heartfelt part of the gift.
Christmas themed stickers
If you need a large number of Christmas present with tags, assuming you are making these Christmas tags in batches for your colleagues, students, classmates or family members, then you can make them uniformly and paste the cut parts from tag A on tag B, then we successfully have two tag cards that echo each other. That’s a quick also easy tip to make plenty of these Christmas present tags, also suitable for cards.
If you have prepared Christmas-themed stickers, then everything will be particularly simple. You only need to decorate the stickers on the card one by one. This is probably the simplest method.
Materials needed: cardboard, scissors, Christmas-themed stickers, twine in Christmas colors (used to hang tag cards and also a kind of decoration)
In the previous article on Christmas gift packaging, we talked about a similar method. The materials needed are also very simple: red, white and black cardboard, glue, and scissors. That’s all, really simple.
You just need to cut out a suitable shape of cardboard and stick it on the red cardboard as the background (the color of Santa’s clothes). You don’t even need to cut out complicated shapes.
I had never thought before that the two rope holes on the button could perfectly represent the snowman’s two eyes and two buttons at the same time! How amazing! Buttons are representing buttons!
Of course, don’t forget the classic red scarf and black hat of our snowman image. The red scarf can also be replaced with hemp rope, while the black hat can be made of velvet-textured cloth or paper to look more textured.
Buttons have many other wonderful uses. They can replace almost anything that is round or even non-round, such as the centerpiece of a gift, the decoration of a Christmas tree, a bunch of buttons connected to a candy cane, the center of a bell, red tree fruits, etc. wait.
You can also use buttons as pure decoration. Simple lines paired with colorful buttons are undoubtedly a work of art.
3D Effect
Overlaying two layers of cardboard is certainly a very good method, but directly creating a 3D effect will make the Christmas gift tags look more three-dimensional and cute.
And the method of making it is so simple that you can’t imagine! All you need is just a foam block and double-sided tape. Just make the layer of cardboard you want it to “float”, and then stick a foam block of the appropriate height between this layer and the bottom layer.
Relief Effect
This embossing effect is actually not difficult. You will need a piece of thick paper or cardboard, an embossing tool (such as an embossing pen or embossing stick), and a soft pad (such as a sponge pad).
Select the design you want to embossed, whether it’s text, a pattern, or an image. Secure the paper to the work surface so that it cannot move. Place the design on the paper and use the embossing tool to lightly trace around the design, leaving a light impression on the paper. If necessary, you can use the embossing tool to deepen the impression to enhance the three-dimensional effect of the embossing effect.
Natural Decoration
Use laurel or coniferous branches to decorate your Christmas cards. You can make a small strip of leaves into the shape of a wreath, and hang a small piece of red ribbon on it as a colorful decoration. It can just create the red and green color of the Christmas atmosphere.
You can also cut one or two small slits on the card, insert small branches into the cut slits, and simply fix them. This is also a very easy way to create natural-style Christmas tags.
Embroidered Snowflakes
Custom embroidered snowflake decoration using the shape of snowflakes! You only need white thin thread and a needle to do it. Use an awl to punch holes in the cardboard in advance, and then connect them directly with white thread. You will get different shapes of white embroidered snowflakes!
Don’t stick to rectangles
Don’t be trapped by the rectangular tag shape, you can completely innovate your own Christmas gift tags shape, round, heart-shaped, elk-shaped, snowman-shaped, Santa-shaped, gingerbread man-shaped, etc., are all possible!
As long as you make good use of the various features of gift tag Christmas and capture its comprehensive features of Christmas and cards, you can easily complete your gift tags!
Clever use of straps made of different materials
I believe you must have seen various strap designs on the hangtags of various products, such as ribbons, hemp ropes, leather ropes, wool, colored ropes, paper straps, plant fibers, etc. You have a wide range of choices. Widespread and mostly environmentally friendly.
It should be noted that the color of the rope must not overlap with the color of the tag itself, otherwise the contrast effect will not be achieved and it will be ugly. Since it is Christmas, you can try to choose red and green ropes. If the background color of the card is red, choose green for the rope. If the card has both red and green, choose brown.
