A Globe Travellers Perfect Companion...Honeycomb Tag Book!


Welcome to Altered Pages! It's July and summertime is all about travel. Susan here with honeycomb tag book created using Altered Pages Digital Download Collage Sheets, and an assortment of papers, coin envelopes, blank manila tags and embellishments. 

I just returned from a weekend getaway road trip which inspired this mini book. A mini wallet style folio collaged with vintage travel images and ephemera, and has plenty of space to record the highlights of an exciting journey.


Tag book with one of eight collaged tags featuring Altered Pages vintage images.


The outside of this travel wallet is covered with hand-painted brown paper bag for the look and feel of leather...reminiscent of a well-traveled leather suitcase.

This project uses Altered Pages Travel Phrases AP-311, Golden Age of Travel AP-2166 and Train Travel Days AP-2165, Collage Sheets. The coin envelopes and tags combined with Glitz patterned papers make a fantastic pockets to hold tags, photos and memorabilia from traveling the globe.

      

The Glitz 6" Paper Packs are full of wonderful patterned papers that inspire you create. I couldn't resist buying all four varieties from AlteredPages.com!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
