I've gotten a number of questions/comments on the tags so I thought I would break it down.  This is a super quick and easy project. 

Supplies:

Avery shipping tags: 4 3/4" x 2 2 3/8"
Hero Arts stamp:  H2141 Manuscript Background (I've ordered from this guy before A+)
Rubber Soul stamp: SKU 449970 Crown
Lower case typewriter stamp set (this isn't exactly the one I have but very close)
Ranger Distress ink pad in frayed burlap
EAS German die-cut paper scrap roses
Tombo MonoAqua liquid glue
Darice Self-stick gems (or glitter glue)
Vintage seam binding or other ribbon (I ordered my Hug Snug binding from them)

I was going to do step by step photos but I got carried away and forgot to snap pictures of a couple of steps.  So I just broke it down to the stamping part and the embellishing part.

First I stamped the manuscript background on the tag.  This stamp has to be my very favorite.  I can't tell you how many times I've used it.  I left enough room at the bottom for the lower case letters.

Then I stamped a crown image. 

Then I stamped my sentiment on the bottom (biscotti, blue moon or whatever…).

Then I dragged the edges of the tag over the stamp pad.

Then I glued on the die cut roses on the top.  If they go over the edges just cut them flush with the tag.

Then embellish with rhinestones or a few dots of sparkly glitter glue.

Add a ribbon (re-poking the hole in the tag if necessary) and you are done!  Takes about two minutes to do.

If you wanted to mass produce them you could scan them before embellishing with rhinestones or glitter and adding the ribbon.  Print out on card stock, then do your embellishing.  You could probably get four or six on a 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of card stock.
