This is the last Springtime tag book post. First you see a fun, colorful tag featuring real eye candy! Candy dots are so nostalgic to me, so this tag makes me smile!
The second photo is my stack of spring tags for the tag book. As you can see, we had to make a lot of tags! 25 I believe. So mine were as simple as I could make them. They are not my best work as I knew I didn't have time to pour my heart into that many at one time! I just used a small tablet of colorful card stock and a handful of Red Lead images that I color copied. I added a sprinkling of glitter, some paper flowers (the little ones in the glass bottles. I've had them for years and can never seem to get to the bottom of those bottles. I think they multiply when I'm not looking.)
The third photo is the finished tag book. So our own Debbie, put all 25 or so of these tag books together and mailed them out to everyone. Wow, what an undertaking! It reminds me a bit of the crazy Advent calendar matchbox swap I hosted a few years ago. The girls who helped me sort and put that one together are still talking about that chaotic afternoon. I had no idea how difficult it would be to execute. Swaps of that size are fun, but can be quite overwhelming! Perhaps that's why I'm enjoying the simplicity of this swap so much.
Thus endeth the spring tag book posts. I hope you found the tags inspiring!

Hey Linda...
Actually it was 40+ tags...I didn't want to leave anyone out, so I didn't have a limit...which in hindsight was foolish. That was a huge job to swap all those tags...but it was fun, too. The USPS loved us. I'd never do a swap that large again...and this one of yours is just right!

Lots of tags yes and lots of beautiful creative bliss to enjoy for many hours of smiling.
Holy smokes, Debbie! 40+? Maybe I've blocked it out- PTSD. (post-tramatic swap disorder) I've had it a few times.
