  13. Yes, I love Christmas time. And we are taking the whole family to Hawaii, well, actually the week of Thanksgiving and then not coming home until Dec. 1, but I know that will get me in the spirit and I love Melekalikimaka song!! Making tags for everyone is sure putting me in the spirit also!! Can hardly wait to shop for the gifts that the tags will be used for!

  15. Fantastic tags ... except for making Xmas cards, my excitement starts after Thanksgiving.

    ReplyDelete
  16. So fun to see everyone's take on a tag. Lots of ideas to work with. With the whirlwind of activities as a family, I haven't started to think about Christmas too much yet, other than getting my shopping done in the next week or so (half way there and hope to get it all done by mid November). That takes so much stress off that I can actually enjoy decorating and the season to the fullest :)

  55. I love the variety of tags, Tracey. No, I'm not excited for Christmas yet. I like to wait until after Thanksgiving before I get in the mood, except for card and tag making, that is. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  56. I'm not excited just yet... I have to get through Thanksgiving first LOL

    ReplyDelete
  57. I'm not sure excited is exactly the word... when I think of the number of days left divided by the stuff to do, perhaps anxious is a better word? :D Somehow, it either always gets done or doesn't really seem to matter in the end. ;) Beautiful tags today, but I think I may have to CASE your emboss resist tags!

    ReplyDelete
  58. I am excited about Christmas because most of my cards that I will need are finished and waiting to be mailed as the season nears. Just a few more to create and I will be able to concentrate on other aspects of the season and I won't have to rush. I love Christmas, especially when I can enjoy the spirit of it!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  63. Every year I say I'm going to make card sets as Christmas gifts. And every year I run out of time. But seeing all of these tags makes me think I should do tag sets. Now to decide if I give them at Thanksgiving or as gifts to use next year. Hmmm....

  71. These tags are gorgeous! I am honestly not too excited about Christmas yet, but not because I don't love it, I am currently at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN awaiting some diagnosis that could be serious, so I haven't really had time to get into the spirit yet, I am enjoying seeing what folks are creating on blogs like yours and it is starting to get me thinking about Christmas! Thanks for the pick me up.
