These printable Christmas gift tags do the joking for you. Each of the fourteen carries one short, dry line about the present, the wrapping job or the person giving it, set in bold red or green serif type above a small full-color picture. Under the picture sit two ruled lines marked To and From.
The fourteen jokes
| # | Line on the tag | Picture | Shape |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | From the Dog. He Picked It Out. | Scruffy dog in a red scarf beside a harlequin box | Cut corners, 2 x 3 in |
| 02 | Regifted With Love. Barely Used. | Red mitten holding a small present | Oval, 2 x 3 in |
| 03 | No Committee. Just Good Taste. | Hedgehog among red and green boxes | Rounded square, 2.5 in |
| 04 | I Wrapped This Myself. It Shows. | Lumpy parcel with a roll of tape and a robin | Trapezoid, 2.5 x 3 in |
| 05 | Mostly Air. Wrapped With Love. | Tiny gift lifted by two balloons | Circle, 2.5 in |
| 06 | One Thoughtful Item. Extra Air Included. | Gingerbread man in an open box | Rounded square, 2.5 in |
| 07 | Bells On. Best Behavior Optional. | Gold bells, holly and a robin | Oval, 2 x 3 in |
| 08 | Thanks for Hiding My Packages. | Squirrel with a pine sprig and gifts | Cut corners, 2 x 3 in |
| 09 | Small Gift. Big Applause, Please. | Present sitting on a toy drum | Circle, 2.5 in |
| 10 | Shake Responsibly. Guess Wildly. | Snow globe with a tree and a gift inside | Oval, 2 x 3 in |
| 11 | Expertly Chosen. Questionably Wrapped. | Two mittens holding a pile of gifts | Rounded square, 2.5 in |
| 12 | Approved by the Dog. | Puppy behind a gift with a paw-print seal | Cut corners, 2 x 3 in |
| 13 | You Said No Gifts. This Is a Surprise. | Robin next to a tall heart-print box | Trapezoid, 2.5 x 3 in |
| 14 | Merry Everything. Sorry About the Tape. | Three stacked presents, a robin on a ribbon spool | Cut corners, 2 x 3 in |
The trapezoids are wider at the bottom than the top, like a shopping-bag label. Pick a joke for the person rather than the box: 01 and 12 suit a gift signed by the family pet, 05 and 06 a small present in a big box.
Two looks, with or without the joke
In color, every tag has a warm cream ground, a thin rose border just inside the edge, and lettering in deep red or holly green. The coloring version keeps the same jokes and layout in black on white, with the pictures reduced to outlines. Some of them are fairly detailed (the knit pattern on the mitten, the hedgehog’s spines, the dog’s fur), so fine-tip markers or colored pencils work better than chunky crayons.
For a gift where a joke would fall flat, the Blank folder has all fourteen pictures again with the line taken off and the To and From lines left in place, in both color and line art. The PDFs print only designs 01 to 06 this way, so use the PNGs for the rest.
Printing and cutting
A US Letter sheet holds six tags in two columns of three. Pages 1 and 2 carry designs 01 to 12, and page 3 holds the last two with the rest of the sheet empty; the line-art pages repeat that order. Print at 100% or Actual Size on the paper size that matches the file, since a “fit to page” setting shrinks the tags. Plain paper is fine for a test page, and card stock holds up better once a ribbon goes through it.
Small crosses mark the corners of each tag’s frame, and a little circle near the top shows where to punch the hole. Cut along the outer outline with scissors or a craft knife.
The SVG and DXF files hold the outline and punch hole of each tag at finished size in inches, with no artwork. Designs that share a shape share an outline, so the fourteen files come down to five shapes. Load them into a cutting machine to cut the tag shapes from card stock.
Questions
- Can I type the names instead of writing them?
- Yes, with the Canva templates. START-HERE.txt and the last page of each PDF give one template link for US Letter and one for A4. Open the link, sign in to your own Canva account, create your copy, replace the Recipient and Sender text and export as PDF Print. If a name runs long, make the font smaller until it fits.
- Is Santa on any of the tags?
- No. The pictures are animals, mittens, bells and wrapped presents. Santa himself, and tags already signed From Santa, are in the separate Santa Gift Tags set.
