Sugar Lump Studios

Art by Nancy Maxwell James

{Floral Seed Tag Chipboard Journal}

February 14, 2017

I made this chipboard tag journal this past week. The chipboard tags I purchased at Michael’s, and then used my Zutter Bind it All to add the binding to the side. I painted each tag and added little circles along the edges with the end of my paint brush.

My pages were then covered with French dictionary pages, old index cards, Red Lead Paperworks collages images (vintage children and various people), K and Co. monograms, Paper Whimsy collage sheet (flower postage stamps), old postage stamps, mother of pearl buttons, label stickers, wooden close pins that I painted to match the pages, sari silk ribbon.

I don’t usually create with colors that are this vibrant, so that was a challenge for me! But, I am happy with the end result.

    What a beautiful idea! I’d have to find another way to bind it, but would love to do this with the old photos of the special women in my family!!
