Silly question about scrapbook tags

[goosedwn]

Hi scrapbook experts,
I post this question in the budget board and a nice lady refer me to here. I hope you all experts can help me. The budget board gave me an idea of making title by running the ribbon behind the tag. Some of the chipboard tags that I have are only as big as a quarter. What else can I use those tags for? Thanks.

Can you tell me how to use the punch out tags that have 2 holes, one on each side of the tag? I think with one hole, I can tie a ribbon but with 2 holes, I have no ideas and I don't seem to be able to find any samples on how to use it. Can you give me a some tips. Thank you very much.

with 2 holes run the ribbon thur both - think of it as a banner where you have several letters in the tags hanging down from the string
I haven't done this so I can't post a picture for you

about a quarter size - when you crop a picture look at the left over & see if there is anything in it that could be cut to fit on it - since this is Disney board - let's look & see if someone you have no idea who is & you cropped them out but hey they have on Mickey ears - cut out the Mickey ears where it fits on the tag
or a party hat, balloons, t-shirt
or maybe just add some swirlies to them

You can add 1 letter to each of a number of the tiny tags and use them to make a title (you can just stick them on the page or you can add them to a ribbon to look like a banner).

The ones with two holes - run the ribbon or string through both so that it crosses the back of the tag, like a slider bracelet. Wrap it around a photo, or your page.

I have a bunch of tags but never remember to use them. Thanks for the reminder!

Here's an idea for Small tags:

Luv the lo. I'm working on heritage albums for my kids, nieces, and nephews. I may have to do some scrap lifting. For some reason, I have a much harder time scrapping the masculine pages.

Back to the op's question on the small tags, in addition to the pictures and lettering, I've used buttons, brads, flowers, stickers, stamps, etc.

I used some small tags as christmas ball on a christmas tree, and wrote on the balls what each child received under the tree that year.

And those tags only had one circle, so I attached with a small brad or eyelet.
