September 20

It is almost fall!!  Fall is my favorite season, it is the start of the holiday season and much cooler temperatures.  So have you thought about your Thanksgiving Table yet?  I have.
  I know its a little early but I think you just have to plan a few things in advance, right?!  With work and three kids I try to get as many things done in advance as possible. 
 
 
This adorable little name tag is going to be on every place setting at my holiday table.
 
I used the new Top Dog Dies Make a banner set and Fall Foliage set to create this name tag.   So let me teach you how.
 
Gather all of your supplies
 
 
 I cut a piece of cardstock to 5 inches in length and scored it down the middle at 2 1/2.  Fold your cardstock and then we are going to die cut that banner.
 
 
 

 
Now the trick to making this a name tag is to place your die just above the fold line we created so you end up with one piece just like a card.
 
 
Next we are going to cut of the tabs on the end of each banner.
 
All you have to do now is decorate your name tag as you choose.  I used the banner layer cut with gold foil and the leaf from Fall Foliage and heat embossed my daughters name on vellum.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
