The local scrapbook store has been doing 12 tags as well actually they have been doing Tag Tuesday for a while. I would like to display the Christmas ones and any of the Tim Holtz ones I can find the time to do at work. What are some ideas of how to display them?

You can hang them on a small Christmas tree.
You put a small tree branch in a pot and hang them like leaves.
You can dangle them from a pretty ribbon that you hang on the wall or the top of your cubicle.
You can use them to frame your computer monitor.
You can tape them in a tree shape on the wall: Starting at top and working down: 1 tag, 2 tags, 3 tags, 4 tags, 1 tag, 1 tag.
You can put them on a wreath.
You can make a wreath by mounting them on a foam ring.
Put an easel on the back & stand them on a shelf, mantle, table, etc.
This is what I was thinking - I'll have to see if the dollar stores have cheap small easels
is there a die for the die cutting machines that makes an easel?

You could just cut a strip of cardstock a bit less than twice the height of the tag and score it in half, then attach one half to the tag with the fold at the top, so it would stand up all by itself (I think that's what iamvics was thinking when she wrote her reply)
I bought the easel die had a 45% off coupon - I'll have to get another die next time lol

My friend waits until all 12 are done, mounts them on foam board, and gets them framed so they can be wall decorations Christmas after Christmas.

Gott wei� ich will kein Engel sein!
Currently I am stringing them across my giant canoe above my stamping desk...it has a permanent home there, and so I decorate it..ha. I plan to hang them on my cute photo "tree" type thing made of wire and clips. I use that to hang cards to dry. I think a tree of them on my coffee table will be fun. I only have 2 done so far, so I better get cracking this weekend.
I have a question! I see lots of people making these gorgeous, decorative tags. (Christmas ones included). What do people DO with them? Are they just for display? Or are you supposed to use them on gifts? Curious.
