Upcycled Tags

Here is my next upcycled tag project.

Also these ones I cut from food boxes. Tag die: Spellbinders. Image: Beccy.

Until now I always covered the colours of the boxes with gesso and a paper. This time I decided to keep the decoration of the boxes and use it as a background for the image. If this is a good idea, others have to tell me. I'm only experimenting.
I used stickles on the girl's dresses. Not easy to see on the photo.

Tags For Junk Journals

 I continue my use of food boxes and other packages for tags and other projects.

Yesterday I made some tags and decorated them with an image from Beccy.

Notebook

 My last post for today is a little notebook, also an upcycled project.

I used a piece of cardboard from an ice cake box. Gesso to hide the text and the foto on the box. I glued some small pieces from a book page and wrote some "words" before I glued a daisy napkin to the cardboard. The little tag was made with a Spellbinders tag die. On the back of the tag I glued a sentiment from Beccy. To keep the book together I made a belly band of Sigel marbled paper. The butterfly is from Studio Light.

Upcycling - once again.

 Today I tried something that I never have done before. If I succeeded, I really don't know. Especially in my battle with the sewing machine I think the machine won. But I don't give up!
I do not know what I shall call this project. "Tag holder"? "Mini book"?

Well, this is an upcycled toilet roll tube. The outside was covered with a paper from Beccy. Her image "Peonies in a vase" belongs to that paper. The sentiment is taken from another set from Beccy.
On the inside I used a patterned paper from Sigel and two strips of the front paper to keep the  tags on their place. The tags are made with a Spellbinders tag die and have got Beccy-images. I know I should have used flowers with colours that fit better with the paper. But these two tags were the only ones I had in the right size just now.

The little book can be closed and opened with velcro. (Is that the right English word?)

Upcycled Notebook

For this little notebook I used:

Cardboard from an ice box which I first grounded with gesso. The outside (front and backside) I covered with a butterfly napkin. On the inside I glued brown pack paper. The signature has got 18 white, yellow and orange pages.
The three sentiments are from Beccy. Also the image, "fairy travels", is from her.

I made a little pocket for a tag, decorated with a cake napkin, a little piece from a book page, some yarn and flowers from my stash.
Dies: Spellbinders (Tag and Scalloped Oval), Studio Light (Butterfly) and WeR Memory Keepers Nesting Card (label on the front).
Paper for the tag: A Bit more Time To Craft.
Silver glitter, some butterfly scraps, two brads, a pink ribbon (for the closure) and two blue glass pearls for the "dingly dangly".

More Pink Tags

 I made some more tags with pink flowers from Beccy.

The tags are cut out of a blue biskuit package. Tag die: Spellbinders.

I grounded the tags with white gesso before I glued the designer paper from Lozzy to them. 

The images were fussy cut.

On the Iris tag I glued a little piece from a book side behind the image.
Brown pen for the faux stitches.

On the tag with Sweet Peas I also glued a sentiment from Beccy (taken from the Iris set).

I have always said that the sewing machine and I are no good friends, but here I dared to use it!

The last picture showes the 3 pink flower tags together. (The Lily tag I had on my blog some days ago.)

Two simple Tags

Here in Switzerland we have had really cold winter weather for days. I had no interest of crafting. Knitting wool socks was the best I could do do to keep warm. 😉
But today I sat down at my craft desk and made some tags.  Like some of my other latest projects, also these ones are upcycled. 

Image: Beccy.
Die: Spellbinders Scalloped Oval (for the tag).
