Sorry, everyone!  I didn't realize this thread had messages/questions for me; I lost track of it after the thread moved down and off the first page of my subscriptions. 

 

I really appreciate all the great feedback!

They're about 3" x 4.5".  I can't recall what made me go for that exact size, except it seemed close to real luggage tags.

Enjoy! 

 

 

Thanks!  I'm sure a lot of brides will appreciate the link.  I knew I could get supplies cheaper, but I was ready to get them done ASAP.  It took me a long time to perfect the design (I'm realizing as time goes on that other people know how to use super easy publishing programs, while I only know how to go the hard/long way by designing in Photoshop!), so by the time I had it ready to print, I was super close to my self-imposed deadline, wanting to give these out a year in advance from the wedding.

Thanks!  No, not rude, but unfortunately, I designed these in Photoshop element by element (no template).  However, I can send you the photoshop design files if you have the program and are able to make use of them.  Just PM me or let me know here.

Sorry, I guess I wasn't totally clear.  I printed the tag design on magnet paper and cut that out (no sticker involved).  

 

The sticker paper was for the design used on the card.  I printed onto white sticker paper, but designed them with a yellow background that matched the yellow cards, since clear stickers would've resulted in altered colors when placed on the yellow card.  

 

Hope that makes sense!  Happy to answer more questions if it's not completely clear.
