This morning I cut up various old cards, Christmas and other, punched a hole in a corner and tied a short bit of sparkly crochet thread through. I had quite a production line going! 
Right so! Gift tags for the coming year sorted!
I even stored them in a re-cycled ziplock bag, howzat! One job done off the list...

Colletta is having another giveaway!
In honour of her 100th post (some people are organised and get their act together for these things)...and since I won one of her Christmas giveaway books I really am being greedy entering this but...well...go see for yourself because it's a really great idea she's had!I also finished the cowl I was knitting but it's quite tight, not drapey, so I'll give it to my sister! She likes things close round her neck, I hate it. Or I might rip it out. Guess my tension was off.
I've just been designing a Calendar online for my Dad's Christmas present, using his own photos, which are on our computer. I use some of his amazing photography here. I'll let you know how the Calendar turns out.
My toolbar has disappeared...how peculiar...

Those are some great ideas for name tags and I just threw our cards out yesterday. What a great thing to do for next year and my six year old grandson will enjoy doing the deed with me.
great blog..

I hate tight things around my neck too!! I used to be able to wear turtlenecks, but no more.
I've just started learning how to knit more than just a garter stitch. I go the "Knitting for Dummies" book and have started looking through it. I just can't wrap my mind around how-in-the-world to make a sock!?!? lol
Thanks for the promo!
Those are wonderful gift tags made from your recycled cards. In the weeks before Christmas I had some of my old cards at school for the fifth graders to look at for Christmas ideas. I was about to throw out one or two cards that looked rather old fashioned. I didn't toss them and low and behold on girl chose one of the cards I was going to toss out and she made the most marvelous Santa in the city scene and she used the sleigh from the card and did her city from her mind. It was one of the cutest of the group!
Great gift tags
I'll run go check out the giveaway!
My Christmas cards are on my desk and I'm going to make tags out of them! Thanks for the idea :)
Great idea with the gift tags. You've certainly been busy. I'm still resting up from the holidays.....
