10 Valentine's Day Gift Tags

Valentine's day is just a few days away, I'd figure that people have already bought their gifts to give. So... instead of giving some tips or ideas on what to gift your loved ones, I would share some templates and ideas on making your own gift tags.



Here are 5 templates those of you who prefer something simple...

10. Lips

All templates are in .png format, for easy editing

Here are some tips on to use the templates:

1. You could either print the templates as stencils ( trace over on any coloured or decorative paper ) or print them directly on the paper you wanted, and cut

2. If you don't prefer writing hand-written letter or notes, you can always type over the templates on your computer

3. You can use photos or any images as the tag's background, by editing the file on photo editing softwares like photoshop.

4. You can cut outside the border, leaving about 3-5mm gap

5. Try to use a thicker/ sturdier paper, or print on normal paper then stick them to a thicker one

6. You can trace the template over a thin wood or acrylic/pvc

7. If you have difficulty punching the holes or if you don't have a hole puncher, use a pen knife to cut the holes

8. You can use hole rings to make them neater

9. You can always change the size of the template if you want to

10. Decorate and personalise your tag: draw, doodle, write, paste, be creative! :)
