These Two Fabulous

Something a little different to start out the Season a Tag Swap!
Using Standard Size Shipping Tags
( 6 1/4" x 3 1/4")
and using one or the other or both

You'll be making 3 Tags.

When you've Entered the Swap
you'll be

PayPal Family and Friends Gift Invoice
for the amount of $6.00
for the 
Return Postage and Handling
(tucking in of extra goodies)

GIMPY@telus.net
(by sending the invoice to me as a Gift
it saves both you and I the fee's and charges
Paypal would be charging either of us)

your Return Postage amount up to 
February 21, 2014 as the preparations

so get those Entries in!
The Deadline to Receive your
3 Completed Tags is 
March 14th!!!
The Drawing for the 
Gift Certificates and Prizes
will be

Now with all the issues with the Postal Service in the U.S. and Canada and Internationally, please get your Tags
mailed out giving at least 2 weeks delivery time to arrive!!!
With the storms in the States and the grounding of planes, this could effect the delivery, so please give yourselves plenty of time getting them mailed to arrive before the March 14th Deadline!!

So there you go!!!!
2014's Tag Swap is Under Way
GET BUSY!!! LOL!!!

Your tags are so gorgeous!! Colour ink is just too expensive for me, so I don't use digital images, but if I did I'd want all of these. Everyone who takes part in the swap is going to have a great time.
