I then drilled a small hole in the top corner of the tag, put a jump ring through it and then tied some red butchers twine so that the tags could be attached to a parcel or hung on the Christmas tree. The back was finished off by edging with a fine liner pen again, so that a greeting can be added when/if needed. Viola!
When I mess about trying to decide where to put the tiniest and most insignificant of flat back gem I call it Fiddle Farting, hence the name of the blog!!!

Craft Stick Christmas Gingerbread Men Tags
Not a lot to these tags made using mini craft sticks frames and self adhesive gingerbread men stickers.
These tags came about when I was just mooching through my Christmas box of bits and found some small craft stick frames that I had put together but didn’t know what to do with.
I then found the foam gingerbread men and started to wonder if I could put the two together ………
For me gingerbread men and gingham are a must together and fortunately I had some small scraps of red gingham card that fit perfectly at the back of the frame. From here, I knew where I was going with the idea, faux stitching using a black fine liner pen all round the frame edges
Next came the gingerbread man, followed by two tiny green buttons to sort of balance the design.
