Title: Gift Tags
Post by: barb e on February 20, 2015, 09:45:18 am

Here is my quick test gift tag.  Had a few problems with it, so was glad that it was only a quick test.  Used the stencil printer to come up with the words, using the Segoe script.  Realized as I was cutting that the "a" & "d" were going to be an issue.  Fixed on the fly.  Then when I tried to put a gift card in, it didn't fit. Turns out a business card fits, but not the credit card sized gift cards.  Photocopied the pattern at 103% and it seems that it will fit but haven't had a chance to cut.  Also looking for help with fixing the script.

What help did you need with the text? It seems good to me. If you want a scrollable font, try Scroll Beach Italic - it has a similar casual look but is not script.

I guess it looks better in the picture than in real life, but the "a" and "d" seem to open for me and was wondering about opening at the bottom of the letter instead of at the top.

Thanks for all the kind words.  I guess I am my own worst critic.

Looks good.  We are our own worst critics, that is for sure.
