Hi everyone,
It's come around again ALREADY! Where did another week go?! It's time to pop over to Julia's Stamping Ground, see what everyone has on their workdesks this week. Here's mine ...
I'm still working on organising my collection of tags from what was a big messy pile shoved in a drawer into what I hope will be a more useful format. So far, I have them all mounted onto sturdy cardstock and I've started to assemble them into books. This is where I left them waiting to dry after gluing on some calico to strengthen the spine.
Today I plan to do some work on the insides ...
... adding some coordinating patterned papers perhaps (using up more scraps) and notes about how each tag was made for future reference. I haven't put them in any particular order (that was just too daunting), but I've tried to pair them up by style, colour or theme ...
... and some of them needed a whole page to themselves ...
Actually, I really enjoyed going back through them again - I can't even remember exactly how I made this one, although I know it involved a lot of heat embossing, acrylic paint and sanding, so I will probably look up my old blog post to find out!
Ok, enough waffle already! I'm off to have a nosey at some other crafty workdesks over at Julia's now - see you there :o)

Wow that's a lot of organising well done and really worth it because these gorgeous tags are such a great resource .... When you can remember how they were done (I'm the same ... Always intend to document the process)
Have a good week

I love all of your tags, did you make the book yourself as well it does look like it has a sturdy construction? I can't wait to see how you decorate the pages and the bonus of using up scraps too.
Have a great crafting week.
