My Family Accordion Tag Book 

I made this family accordion tag book to scrap a couple of photos of my family taken at picnic last weekend with a few buddies from work. Love picnics, food + fun + great photo opportunities . It was by far the quickest mini album I've made so far - it only took me approx 2-3hrs.

I think I might pick a few of the best photos from this year, downsize them and use them in a tag book like this for my Christmas presents this year. Sounds like a good idea (unfortunately my best attempts at photography are pretty dismal so the pickings will be slim - but i'm working on it)

Anyways, for this album I used only two pieces of bazzill cardstock, Blue Bazzill for the tags and some strange cream colour for the accordion album itself (i reckon some double sided patterned card would be great to use for the album...hmmmm, maybe next time) I was a cheapie and used some off-cuts to decorate the front panels and the tags themselves.

The finished product

family accordion tag book
 
family tag 1 Tanga and Atiria getting rid of a few the googley-bops (Atirias word for prickles or bindis) from her feet. May arts ribbon, Queen and co flower with a brad.
family tag 2 Can you tell I'm down to the last of the off-cuts. Teach me for being a cheapie. Oh well...
family tag 3 Little miss Atiria cruising around on her Frisbee car. No embellishments other than the prima flowers on this tag, Not even any off-cuts...i really must've run out.
family tag 4 Yip. No more off cuts. No wonder it only took me a couple of hours to make there's practically nothing there. lol. No, I actually left this tag blank on purpose so I could add some journalling later (which for me later usually means 'never')
