Tag Album Set



Rather than using the tags from 'Tags In A Box Display' as actual tags, I thought it would be a nice change of pace to use the tags to create a set of 3 mini albums.
This project will require reinforced packaging tape (cut two 4" strips), Graphic45 'Steampunk Debutante', Black card stock,  Beacon glue, Ranger Black Soot ink, chipboard (H 4" x W 7/8")

Line up tags (end to end) with strip of chipboard in the center (allow 1/8" spaces between tags & chipboard)
Use Beacon to glue packaging tape onto ends of tags (covering over chipboard strip) on both sides of tags
Cut strip of black card stock (W 1-1/2" x H 4") & score strip 1/4" five times




Fan fold strip 
Add glue under 'peaks' of fan folded strip

Glue fan folded strip onto packaging tape

Cut four pieces of black card stock (W 4" x  H 6-7/8")
Glue two pieces of black cardstock together with bottom edges on each side of fan folded 'peak'
Congrats - you've just created the first page of your tag album! Repeat the process to create the second page

Once the base of the 'tag album' has been created - you can now let your creative mind run free to embellish your album!

Enjoy Winter




















Product used: GSLC House Shrine Box, Snowy Flouries, ; Authentique Frosted One, Three & Six; Prima Warm Wishes

Beacon 3in1; Ranger Vintage Photo, Faded Jeans Crackle Paint, DecoArt Glistening Snow-Tex; RubnBuff Silver Leaf; Spectrum Noir Moonstone
LOTS of fussy cutting!
Setting up the layout...


I used the 'spare door' of the kit as scenery extension

Pom-pms were added to give the snowballs dimension

The background paper on the inside was continued onto the sides

The tree was a little tricky putting on with the wet glue so I ended up using hot glue gun

The final product! It was actually inspired by the 5+ inches of snow we got overnight!
