Smash A Stack - Tag Set - 150+ Pieces - Espresso Press Design -
This five tag set paper project will help you smash any 12×12″ paper pad as ideally you can use five sheets of paper in total for over 150 pieces of ephemera. You’ll get fewer large tags but you can use all leftover tags to create smaller sets or just save the smallest tags for extra ephemera. You’ll love how fast you can use your paper stacks to create this tag variety and even use the half inch branding strip if one is included using the same basic folding technique. Keep these handy measurements and use scraps too.
What you’ll need:
If making the entire set you'll need 5 sheets of 12"x12" scrapbook paper.
2 – 12×12″ scrapbook paper your choice, any weight, double or single sided
1 – 12×12″ paper cut into 4″ strips
Scoreboard or scoring tool
Trimmer
Glue
Paper punches
This tag set includes a 3″ wide tag, a 2″ wide tag, a 2″ luggage tag, a ticket tag and tiny charm tag each 1″ width. See previous videos for all tutorials.
Tips are included in previous video tutorials (links below) for choosing the ideal papers and this tutorial shows how to make the two larger tags and the ticket tag. The paper stack shown is ideal for junk journals but you might want a heavier weight paper for other projects.
Align your paper as desired on the scoreboard. Score at 1″ and 6 1/2″ for each tag. Fold and glue as shown. After gluing each sheet cut one set at 3″ intervals and the other at 2″ intervals.
For the ticket tag align your paper on the 4″ side and score at 1/2″ and 2 1/4″. Fold and glue as shown. Cut each corner with a ticket corner punch.
See video tutorials below to learn how to make the luggage tag, tiny charm tag and creative journal tags.
