It pretty much goes without saying that any gift or favor I give will have a touch of calligraphy. But usually, adding those finishing touches comes at the last minute and I never put as much into it as I intended. So, when I was able to test out the new Tailored Collection at MOO, I knew exactly what I need and figured there were others out there looking for a similar solution.

The Tailored Collection is a selection of finishes you can add to your business cards including Spot UV, Gold Foil and Raised Spot Gloss. Foil? With custom art? That doesn't cost a million bucks? Sold. While I didn't need business cards, I knew that gift and favor tags would be something we could all agree are a necessity. Another great use for these? Place cards and escort cards! If you've ever used MOO, you know that you can customize the backs of the cards individually. So upload one cool design to the front, and then your guests names to the back.

Here is how I used the foil and spot gloss for some business card size gift tags.

I lettered a 'thank you' file to use for some gold foil tags. These would work great tied up on top of small gifts, with holes punched to tie onto favors, or how i've been using them.. taped on top of packages with cute washi tape!

Pictures just cannot show you how fun the raised spot gloss is. It reminds me of secret notes when you were a kid. Very understated and visible in just the right light. It would make a fun accent if you had a pattern (or note!) on the back of your escort cards.

And finally, something we can probably all use, customized tags for any occasion and any gift! I love this idea to purchase as newlyweds, or even as a gift to the new couple. It is always exciting to see your new last name. These will come in handy for years and years!

Have you guys ever used MOO for business cards, or anything else like tags? I'm addicted now and can't wait to see what other ways I can use them!
