Accordion Book

The front

First couple of pages.

Lots of tag pockets on these two pages.

More pockets to add tags into.

This is the back.

The back sides of the pages

Just one pocket on this one so it didn't get too bulky.

I watched a series of 4 youtube videos by Tracie Fox and was inspired to make an accordion book.

Day 19 Tags Inspired by Tracie F

After watching one of Tracie's youtube videos I came up with these for my specimens.

Added them to double tags with some specimen labels.

A little close up.

These are for the #fabtag30day challenge, and we are currently on day 19.

FABric Tags - Boho Style

I out some scraps of fabric onto a tag shape to cover the background, then sewed around the edges with the machine.

And the same again for this one.

Then I played around with some other pieces of fabric to create a layout I liked.

And again, did the same with the other one.

Once happy, I got the sewing machine out again and attached all the fabric pieces.

And I did the same for this one. And as you can see, I slightly changed the layout of this one from the original.

Here they are out in the garden side by side.

Close up of the broken jewellery piece.

This image has a piece of wadding underneath so it puffs out.

And another piece of the broken jewellery to finish it off.

These are my day 5 tags for the FABtag30 challenge.

FAB Tags 30 Challenge - More Tags

I cut some tags and used clear modelling paste through a stencil.

I used oxides to colour them and then stitched around the outsides.

Placed the smaller ones on top of the big ones to see what they looked like.

Then I added different colours of treasure gold to the stencilled areas.

I got a few embellishments out and had a play around until I got something I liked.

Glued everything down and here are the finished tags. More for the FAB tag 30 challenge.

Oriental Text Book Pages - More

I needed some more pages to add into my ever growing book.

I was two red ones short from the last batch I made and I made some spares.

Decorated the fronts, just some stamping, will embellish as and when.

And the backs.

Napkin Background Tags

Spritzed a layer of plain napkin with water and added droplets of distress re-inkers.

Once dry, I stuck it to a piece of card.

Used gesso to tone it down a bit.

Chopped it up into tag sized pieces.

Added various colours of gelatos and distress crayons.

Cut them into tag shapes and sewed around the edges.

Added some tissue papers to the top two smaller tags.

Next I added some script stamping in timber brown stazon.

Added various embellishments and a paper doll.

And the same with this one.

Finished tags side by side.

Inspired by Andrea at ARTYmaze - thank you.
