materials
What you’ll need:
1 6″x6″ scrapbook paper
Scoreboard or scoring tool
1/8″ paper punch
Scissors or trimmer
Glue
Paperclips (optional)
Embellishments (optional)
Begin by cutting your 6×6″ paper in half, creating two 3″x6″ pieces. Choose your design direction carefully, make sure text or images will be vertical or readable on each side when folded. Place one piece on your scoreboard with the 3″ side at the top. Score at 1/2″ and 1 3/4″. Fold, burnish, cut, glue and assemble as shown in video tutorial. Repeat with the other piece.
You can use any scrap paper as long as it is 3″ wide, 1″x3″, 2″x3″ or 3″x3″. As long as you have a leftover cut piece that is at least 1/2″ x 3″ wide you can make additional smaller tags for greater variety.
Use any paper desired, some ideas include books, cards, scrapbook paper covers. To make tags from magazines use the cover as you’ll want a slightly heavier paper. See the video for more tips and ideas.
Embellish or let the paper design shine through. Add a jewelry jump ring or bulb pin in the hole if desired. These adorable tiny tags are a fast and easy mass make that will add plenty of charm to your collection or could be a super seller in your shop or at your next craft fair.
Happy paper crafting!
