Yes, I have been in and hosted annual Christmas gift tag swaps for approx 8 years...so it is actually one of my traditions. Indeed I was hoping that there would be some folks here who would be interested in a swap this fall to make a set of stamped package tags. My tag swaps have asked for a minimum size of 2.5"x 2.5 inches and maximum size of 3.5 x3.5 They can be any shape and some folks use a die cut or a punch for the base. They can either be a flat tag or a mini folded card style. Usually each player sends in approx 8 tags and receives the same number in return. This is a great time to learn to work in batches. As host I do what I can to keep postage cost down. I make a point asking for no lumpy or hard items that increase the cost of postage. In fact, I ask that ribbons for tying onto the package are notincluded. I think of these tags as a quality handmade items..yes, they may not be kept but the adult receiving the tag will appreciate the detail beyond simple stamping (such as embossing, special backgrounds etc). However, I don't think of them as fancy...as in overstuffed with pearls and lace.
