Description:

This is my first swap that I have hosted. I started doing my own photo/journal albums and buying tags looks like a waste of money to me when it is easy to make your own. These tags are good for just about any project whether it be journals, albums, smash books or whatever.

The tag should be roughly 3 x 5, size of an index card which by the way is a great way to start a journaling tag especially if the indexed card has lines.

When I make my journal albums, I like to make them as flat as possible while others like to make them really thick. For this swap, the tags should be flat and easy to place in a regular size envelope. This saves on postage.

What I would like to avoid are tags that are plain, like one that has a colored border and journal lines in the middle. It doesn't take make to put a little more creativity into the tag.

Requirements: * 1 partner - you make two tags for that partner * Open to newbies * Size at least 3 x 5, can be larger if you desire but remember these are for books the size of smash books or mini albums.

If you have comments please make them nonjudgmental. None of us really like to read comments from judgmental people. Be respectful and nice.

@KristinCali - I was searching for a similar swap and didn't find one. Is your swap still open? or was it a group swap?

I'm excited to make these for my swap partner . . . The pictures give me an idea, but to be honest, I don't really understand what these are for, even after reading the description and the comments! Are these similar to gift tags, but used for something else??

Thanks in advance for whoever can help me out!

@andreatally : They are used for writing on.. to put in a journal or a smashbook or an art journal or anything where you need to write words.. :)

@andreatally I've seen these referred to on youtube as life journaling. They can be used for anything. I've started making mini envelope photo albums and mini file folder albums and they are used in them, as well.
