Tag card

Hello dears,

this week is teacher appreciation week in my kids school (not anything we have ever had when I went to school) insert rolling eyes here … anyways… the kids wrote their teachers a nice letter, bring them a flower – which teachers collect and they will have about 20 flowers in a vase on their desks.. and the parents usually (optional) give the teachers a little gift. I am going to be able to slide a little Starbucks gift card into the pocket on my tag (behind that fence die cut).Tag card_1

I made for the female second grade teacher a gift card holder. I loved the tag card my sweet and talented friend Tammi Buck made so much that I had to try one out too. You can find the tutorial also in Magnolia ink – Ashlee shared the the How-to, I used her measurements as guideline but I made my card a bit shorter and a lot narrower.
