Save your cards that are mailed to you year to year. Find all the cute and beautiful cards and cut out the parts you like the best. You can cut anything you want out of the cards and use those as gift tags on your presents. After cutting out the images I like, I might use pinking sheers or scrapbooking scissors or just regular scissors. Then I sometimes punch a hole with hole punchers and run a ribbon from my decorative display on the package through the hole and tie it on. The flip side will be for the TO and FROM part.
Note in the photo how nice it looks. Sometimes I just tape them on. Endless possibilities and it saves you from having to buy package tags!

I also make tags from last year's xmas cards. I use different templates - my favorite is in the shape of a xmas ornament.

My family has been doing this for years. I remember my grandmother doing this when I was a child. My kids do it now. My grandmother also ironed the used Christmas paper to reuse next year:)
