Today is Holiday cards, gifts and tags - easy last minute projects. I love to include my kids in my crafting, especially at the Christmas season. I can not stress enough how having a Cricut makes this so much easier for me to do with my kids.
Using the Art Philosophy Cartridge I cut out a bunch of different tags (this cartridge is awesome! I have a ton of projects on my blog using it and to be honest I have not taken it out of my machine since I got it - I don't have to! For more ideas you can see a Art Philosophy Blog Hop here
This would make an awesome Christmas gift for you or someone you love who is into crafting. Remember anyone who makes a purchase this month off my site here will be entered to win a FREE workshop on the go scrapbook kit valued at $29.95)
On some of them I drew a simple tree image and the kids outlined them with brown paint and then used green paints and Q-tips to make some fun Christmas trees.

a finished tag
Then they colored some of the snowflake tags with a star dust pen
Here they are - so sweet and so simple. This is hard for a perfectionist Mama to share but I do love the finished look even if they are not what I would normally post :)
Here are my tags :)
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you will take the time to leave a comment and then join in over at Cooking with Cricut to link up your holiday cards, gifts and tags. I can't wait to see what you have been creating :)
