12 Days of Christmas: Yarn Ball Gift Tags

December 6, 2021

For Day #6 of my 12 Days of Christmas, I’m giving you two versions of a fun gift tag: one for your printer, and one for a cutting machine (such as a Cricut or a Silhouette)!

I originally designed this tag to use with my Cricut Explore Air 2:

But when I decided to include it in the 12 Days of Christmas, I wanted to be sure to include something for those of you who don’t have a cutting machine of your own.

Whichever you choose, it’s going to add such a cute, fun element to those handmade gifts!

To print the version for a normal printer, download this PDF file. You’ll just need to print and cut the tags out by hand, and use a hole punch where indicated. I recommend using light colored cardstock.

To use the version for a cutting machine, download this transparent PNG file and use according to the instructions included with your machine! Any color of cardstock will do.

By the way, if you’re in the market for a cutting machine, I love my Cricut Explore (<— affiliate link)! (You can read the crazy story about what the NBA had to do with me getting a Cricut machine here.) I have absolutely loved having it over the last couple of years, and I’ve used it so much. Last Christmas, about half of my family got crocheted gifts, and the other half got personalized items that my Cricut helped me create.

I hope you enjoy these gift tags as you get your handmade gifts ready for the holidays!

Thank you Rebecca! These are so cute. I think I’ll be using them this year. Finishing up some backlogged UFOs and they will come in handy!
I hope you are having a super great week!

The tags are great – thank you so much! I printed them out and will cut apart and attach to my items. I do have a Cricut but don’t really know how to use it!!
