All tagged out

Nah, never, I love tags. After all the excitement of the OWOH event, I really needed to sit down and make something, and making tags was the obvious thing to do. I don't need to get the sewing machine out for that, I don't need too many supplies, and although it takes me quite a while to make a tag ( because I am a fardledardler ), it is not too time consuming. And of course, I still had to make the TAG TUESDAY challenge tag!

Let me show you that one first. The theme for this week was " Friends ".





With all the bloggy love flying around this week wtih the OWOH event, it had to be about Blogger friends of course!

Another tag I made -



And this one -


I quite enjoyed tearing strips off the music sheet, so I made some more -


Dang, paper tearing is fun! So I made even more, lol -


But then I decided that 6 were quite enough, so before I got too carried away, I put the paper away.

See, almost tagged out! The next couple of days I really really got to try and work my way through the mess in my workroom, I can't move without falling over boxes, bags, bits and pieces. How does that happen so quickly???

I had a gorgeous little package in the post today, but I think it deserves a post on its own, not tagged onto the tags ( oh good grief ), so I'll show you some pics tomorrow.

For now, have a fun weekend, toodlepip xxx

Hi Liz, I am still smiling from reading your post! I love "toodlepip"! I know what you are saying about the craft room becoming a mess so quickly. Cleaning up mine is on my "to do" list today...right after I make peanut butter cookies! Your tags are awesome!!

Hi Liz,
I love the tags! I am especially fond of bees.
I am the same way when I am making tags. You would think it wouldn't take any time at all, since they are so small. Not for me! I have to analyze and criticize everything first! And boy do I make a mess! LOL! You should see my craftroom!
Have a wonderful Saturday! And thanks for posting about my giveaway!

Blessings,
Sonya

But seriously, your tags are "just you" beautiful - don't you just love tearing paper? Never heard the word

Hello Liz.
Loved all of the Tags, but the first one with all the beautiful lace is my favourite. I think we can all relate to having messy craft rooms, how could we create such beautiful things in a tidy room!!!!WE couldn't.
Loved your post too.
Smiles:)

Beautiful tags. You made me smile about loving tearing paper. There are so many ways of doing it that the sound can warn the family what kind of mood you're in. xx
