Problem Solved!

  This coming weekend Joey will be going with his Sophomore Civics/Economics Class to Jamestown, Va.  He is scaredly excited.
  Anyways, he has to have a luggage tag on his bags. I have one luggage tag that I used when I went on the cruise 2 years ago that I picked up when we were at OBX for Christmas.  I didn't want to go purchase something that is going to be eventually lost and/or destroyed.  I set my mind to work to think of something that could be used as a luggage tag. My eyeballs landed on an envelope of empty gift cards. Who knows why we keep them, but alas, we do.
  So, this is what I did:
I cut a scrap of paper off the same size of the gift card.

I wrote the information that was required by his teacher on his label then I used some scrapbook picture adhesive squares to attach the label to the gift card.

Using clear packing tape, I secured the tag to the back of the card .I then used the hole punch to make a hole in the card.


Using the cord from my luggage tag, I attached Joey's to his suitcase.

Now, to help him pack!
