    Materials:

    16 large shipping tags
    grosgrain ribbon
    1 yd. decorative ribbon
    acid-free heavy-duty paper glue
    photos of family and friends
    scrapbook embellishments
    rubber stamps
    fun papers

    Funky Fibers (by Fiberscaps)

    1. Rub the edges of the shipping tags along the inkpad to create an antiqued appearance (figure A).

    2. Lay eight of the tags 1/2" apart on a work surface (figure B). Using heavy-duty glue and a glue gun, adhere a strip of grosgrain ribbon across the center of all eight tags (figure C).

    3. Glue the remaining eight tags on top of the tags already attached to the ribbon; this creates a surface with two sides to decorate (figure D).

    4. Decorate each shipping tag to create a mini scrapbook page (figure E).

    5. Tie fibers through the hole at the top of each tag to make a hang tag (figure F).
