Scrapbooking Ideas And Solutions – Using Tags On Your Layouts
Tags have many ways in which they can be used in your scrapbooking layouts. In todays scrapbooking ideas and solutions, we look at some of the ways in which you can use these magic little components to add character and make your scrapbooking layout look like a masterpiece.
A tag is a rectangular piece of card or board normally with a hole in the top to attach it to your page. It can be cut with square or rounded corners or even bought at your local scrapbooking supply store ready made to suit your layout. There are many varying designs for tags, but even the humble tag shape offers many possibilities.
Tags have come a long way since their humble beginnings as labels, and are very popular as scrapbooking embellishments. Tags can be cut in many different sizes, depending on how you wish to use them in your layout.
A great way to use tags is as a title for your scrapbooking page. Each tag could have one letter of your title on it then hung across the top of your page on a string to resemble a washing line. You could attach them to your layout with brats or even mini pegs. A dab of acid free glue under each tag will be necessary to keep them in place.
Another scrapbooking idea and solution would be to cut them in a circular shape and use them for dates or little snippets of information that you would like to convey to your readers.
Photographs could also be cut into tags to add something unusual to your layout. If you want to punch a bigger hole in the top of your tag, you can use file protectors around the hole to make it stronger and finish it off before threading cotton or string through it and attaching it to your page.
A great scrapbooking idea and solution would be to cut the tags out from the same paper that you use to mount your photographs on, or some other patterned paper that you use in your layout.
You don’t need to only write on every tag, you could paste a small picture, ornament, shell or photo onto it. Material or riff raff also works well. You could also tie a whole bunch of tags together as an embellishment for your layout.
As you can see there are loads of ways in which you can experiment with your tags on your layout. Once you get started, more and more ideas will come to you and you will create truly original works of art.
