Elements of A Good Tag
Before starting any tag-making project, you must first learn the top five elements that turn any lackluster tag design into something more compelling and useful. By incorporating (or looking for) all these characteristics into your own tag designs, you will definitely create printed tags that you are proud of.
1. Paper Type: Choose high-quality and thick paper or cardstock to print your tags on. This makes them sturdier and able to withstand different inks and printing techniques.
2. Color Palette: Play with different color combinations until you find a color/s that can readily catch people’s attention. Also, make sure that the color complements the object it is attached to or the event it is used for. Consult a color chart to help you decide on the best complementary color combinations.
3. Typography: When tags are used to describe or identify the name, purpose, or recipient of the object they are attached to, it is best to do this with style. Choose fonts and formatting styles that match the event’s theme or the recipient’s personality.
4. Design Layout: The best tags (whether gift tags or thank you tags) are those that use organized design layouts—making it possible to add text and visual elements in a logical manner without overwhelming its reader. And if you download a printable tag template, it will have a built-in layout design and you do not have to worry about creating your own layout design.
5. Tag Attachment: Tags can be looped, strung, stuck, or tied to another object. Choose a tag attachment style that matches the object that it is attached to and the type of tag you are making.
Due to their small size, tags are often not noticed right away. But by incorporating all the design elements shared above into your own graphics templates, you can surely create the best tags for whatever design project that you are working on.
