Jam Tags


Hello, Today I have something a little different to show you. I have made Jam Tags for my homemade jam that I have made. 
I have been very busy the last few days making cherry jam & Raspberry jam. So far I have 18 bottles of cherry jam & 8 bottles of Raspberry jam.


My first tag is for raspberry jam.


Another raspberry jam tag.


A tag for a  bottle of cherry jam.


Another cherry jam tag.


On the back of all the tags I have put the date made.


I have made all the tags with the same card stock, just used different ribbons.

These homemade jams with tags would make great gifts. As my Dad loves homemade jam 2 of these bottles will be going to him.




I will be entering my jam tags into the following challenges:
