Anna Gaitanou Hollingworth from Leximbue Journals

Anna, a master of miniature worlds, shares her profound insight: “I have discovered that in a tag I can create a microcosm of a theme contained within itself. I love the challenge of creating living and breathing ecosystems within my work.” Her unique perspective highlights the power of tags as compact canvases for intricate storytelling and thematic exploration.

Heather Naggy from Ruby & Pearl xo

Heather, known for her vibrant aesthetic, reveals her passion for tags: “Tags are one of my favorite elements to create for a journal. I often use them to incorporate a pop of color or bold pattern into my page. I also really love to use them as pockets and tuck spots. They are beautiful and versatile little works of art.” Her approach focuses on the functional beauty of tags, demonstrating how they can elevate a journal page not just aesthetically but also practically. Heather’s tutorials are perfect for those who love to combine beauty with utility in their crafting projects.

Jane Chipp from Willow Blue Vintage

Jane, a connoisseur of intricate details, eloquently expresses her admiration for the tag format: “What I like about making tags is the challenge of creating something interesting and unique on a really small scale. Unlike a journal, where you have numerous pages to explore a style or theme, a tag has just a few inches so every element has to really work hard to get your idea across.” Her philosophy underscores the precision and thoughtful design required for effective tag making. Jane’s tutorials will guide you in maximizing impact within a limited space, turning each tag into a potent statement piece.

Lisa Aktug from Curiosities Home

Lisa, with her keen eye for color and aesthetics, shares her creative process: “When creating tags, I tend to focus on a color palette first and then look for ephemera and small elements to add in that overall color scheme. I also love to find unexpected uses for tags, such as in home decor projects or for gifting.” Lisa’s approach offers a wonderful lesson in cohesive design, emphasizing the importance of color harmony. Her tutorials will inspire you to think beyond the journal, transforming tags into versatile elements for various creative endeavors, from elegant decor to heartfelt gifts.

Rebecca E. Parsons from The Bookery

Rebecca, a master of texture and drama, passionately states: “I love creating unusual, multi-layered tag designs that are easy to make, but look impressive. Just like in my bookmaking, I use several methods (i.e., origami, faux finishes, momigami, weaving, etc.) to create visual and literal texture and drama.” Her innovative spirit shines through her work, challenging conventional tag making. Rebecca’s tutorials will introduce you to advanced techniques, encouraging you to experiment with different materials and methods to add profound tactile and visual interest to your tags, making each one a miniature work of art.

Terri Kolte from The Gypsy Magpie

Terri, with her knack for turning ordinary into extraordinary, enthuses: “Tags have always been one of my favorite things to make. It’s such fun to turn them into tiny pieces of art with little snips of trim and beautiful images. Embellished with treasures like pieces of old jewelry, vintage stamps, or pieces of hardware… even better!” Terri’s joy in crafting is infectious, and her tutorials will inspire you to transform simple tags into cherished keepsakes. Her emphasis on embellishments encourages a treasure-hunter’s approach, making each tag a unique assemblage of beautiful, meaningful fragments.
