A tag book similar to this one is now part of the on-going blog candy. Blog candy will now run until April 5, 2010. You may leave a comment any where on my blog and if you link my blog to yours, I will put your name in the "hat" five additional times.

The die is from sizzix, super traditional die #38-0947. This die has been retired. However if you would like some cut, please email me at ms.rhetta@verizon.net and I will gladly send you some cut from recycled cardboard. You will need to sand and cover as you see desire. Paypal is accepted and 20 will cost you $2.50 to cover postage.
***
The front and back covers are cut out of recycled plastic, as are the "ghost" shapes. A ghost shape is simply a shape (in this project butterflies and flowers) also cut from recycled clear plastic. It adds an dimension that is not only offers a great dimension but a fun almost 3-d effect when layered with other decorative papers.
***
Many of the pages are embellished with glitter. The stams are from various manufactures and the ribbon adorning the tabs and wires are from the ribbon outlet here in Maryland.

I hope you will give a project like this a try. It is time consuming since much time is needed for layers and pieces to dry, so in man hours I would say this one took about 4 hours to totally complete.

Thank you for joining me today, Have a great week and STAMP HAPPY!
