'Tis the Season Celebration!

Okay, I haven't been a slacker...  

I've been getting ready for our 
'Tis the Season Celebration 
this Sunday, November 28th from noon to 5:00 
at Rustique... The Rehab Boutique

We are having LIVE music by my honey, Stan Martin
He will be singing some of his originals, 
some Christmas songs and I'm sure he'll take requests!

Yummy Homemade Treats!

15% Off the Entire Shop! 
(Consignment items not included.)



This is the poster I designed for our big day. 
Background image from the Graphics Fairy.

Complimentary Gift!
(While supplies last.)
Each customer will get a bag of vintage inspired Christmas Tags.
Some images are from the Graphics Fairy and some are from Dover Publications
where you can get free samples every week when you sign up! 

Here's how I did it!
I downloaded images and brought them into Photoshop where I manipulated the 
images to look like vintage tags. I printed them on heavy card stock, 12-up on a sheet.


Then, I cut them out using an exacto knife and metal ruler.




Punched holes!


Added ribbon!


I used soft vintage colors. Here are some of my favorites!




Here they are in their little baggies, all ready to go!


I have these drawers from an antique Singer sewing machine,
(the rest of which was destroyed) I salvaged parts from it and thought 
this would be a great way to display the tags!




I hope you can join us!

  2. Those are adorable!! My family has always taken our old Christmas cards and re-used them for gift tags for the following year...but they have never been that detailed! Very nice!!
