I even ensured that he looks good from the back, adding a date and making sure that there was no tape sticking out

Such a cute tag!
Love the gingerbread drummer boy. So cute! I like the way the drum opens up for the To/From.
Thanks, Becka! That was a last-minute change to my plan, but I think it works well!
Adorable!
This time of year I love Gingerbread projects.

So cute. I love gingerbread men.
Really cute tag. And I like how you put 2020 on his butt….behind him….we all want 2020 to be a year we can forget, and go back to a normal, free life!!!!!!!!
Hahaha! You are so right! I didn’t really think of that, but obviously my sub-conscious was working! Here’s to 2021! Thanks so much!
So very cute!
I love the 2020 on the little butt! Adorable tag 🥰🎄
This is so sweet & I love how she made the little flap on the front.
This has to be the most versatile tag ever—and one of the cutest, too!
What a clever idea! Love the drummer idea!
Love the mosaic on the drum Ardyth!
So stinkin’ adorable … I’ve got my thinking cap on for this one.
Haha! I kind of reverse-engineered this one – thought up the tag and then figured out the song! Can’t wait to see what you come up with!
This is so adorable and I love that it’s made to last.
Thanks so much, Pat!
Didn’t know gingerbread boys were drummers … learn something new every day! Cute!
Haha! Why not? Thanks so much, Patricia!
Okay….this makes me so hungry for gingerbread! Your colors are perfect and how fun is that cool interactive element. This will be a treasure for years to come. Thanks for the inspiration!
So cute! Love how the drum opens for the sentiment.
Seriously cute! I love anything interactive.
I love the theme this year of using songs. I have a new song to hum each day. 🙂 Super cute tag, Ardyth. I love anything interactive!
Thanks so much, Julie! Keep humming! lol!
This is so cute! I will have to try my own version!
That is the best compliment! I’m so glad you were inspired!
Cute tag!
Thanks so much!
So cute and creative!
This Little Drummer Boy tag / ornament is just too adorable and a clever idea love how you made it and all the sparkle you put on it thanks for sharing
Great tag! I like where you put the year.
This tag is so cute! I like the fact that you can use it for an ornament as well.
I know the mosaic drum band was more work, but it turned out sooooo fabulous! I love that effect, and will have to remember to try it. Steps up the paper-strip technique. I love how the tag/ornament came out overall, too. Thanks for sharing, & have an awesome day! 🙂 ~ Andrea
The little drummer boy is one of my favorites! Great that you did front and back. Date a great idea, too!
So cute. Like that the drum opens up.
Delightful card and fab inspiration!
Oh, my goodness. How cute?
Such a sweet gingerbread man!

This tag is so neat and its a cool way to make a ornament that will last forever for the person that you will be giving this to
Sweet, creative tag!
Your gingerbread drummer tag, with the ‘hidden’ sentiment, is beyond adorable, Ardyth! This would be perfect attached to a batch of home-made gingerbread! LOVE!

Tags often take as much time to make as a card so turning it into an ornament is genius! I love your little drummer boy, so cute! Who wouldn’t want to hang him on their tree?
Your gingerbread man tag is adorable! I especially love the colors on his drum! Great job!
Cutest little drummer gingerbread boy ever! 🙂
This is such a clever idea!! Too cute!!

This is adorable and a unique little drummer boy! This would be an amazing tag for those home-baked goodies!

This is adorable!
Thank you!
So darn cute! Another use for my fav die of the season! Thanks!
Thanks, Holly!
Love how your drum opens for the to/from area. And, the double duty if a Christmas tree ornament.
Yes! With all the effort that went into him, I couldn’t stand to think of him being thrown out! Thanks so much!
Love the quirkiness!
Haha! Thanks, Marianne!
This just makes me smile, Ardyth!!
