Fabric Tag Book


The current swap challenge on the Art 'n' Soul Flickr group is to make a tag book.  Any shape and any medium, but the theme is 'beautiful buttons'.

I chose to use fabric for my book which consists of four pages.

I cut the tag shapes with a Sizzix Bigz die 'Tag, Super Scallop Crescent' using various fabric scraps.

Each tag page is a sandwich of fabric, light wadding, brown paper and more fabric.  I embellished the pages with various buttons, lace and ribbons.

Here are all the pages









Try as I might, I just cannot get the photos to appear side by side (I managed it with the first two - don't know how!)

The challenge runs until 30th January, so I'm nice and early!

Wonderful tag book Sherry! Like that you have made it squishy by using wadding. I think the reason you can't get the other pictures to sit side by side is that they are too wide for the column - if you made them a bit smaller and therefore thinner they should work.
