AWAY IN A MANGER - tag
Featuring the Christmas Carol
The hardest part of this tag was designing the music used as a background in the oval. If you are not familiar with PhotoShop, you can still find the music online and just use a portion of it for your backdrop.
For mine, I worked with the entire music score, cleaned it up to remove guitar chords, changed line spacing, and changed the text to print in brown.
I had to size it down, import it into Word which gave me 4 per page; enough to make a few more of this card.
I wanted to keep the colours rather muted looking and simple. The base tag colour is actually a loden green, not brown. Again, these tags are LARGE, sized at 6"h by 3-1/2"w.
