Years ago when I first started scrapping tags were very popular. Then they pretty much fell out of favor. Now they seem to be back or at least I think they are. A lot of collections have them in embellishment packs and some die sets have them.
So how do you use tags these days in layouts? I’d appreciate any tips or ideas. Thanks.

I don't think I ever stopped using and making tags. I use them for journaling, layering, and cluster and title bases.

I like to cut the tag down, and use it as a place for an embellishment cluster. Kind of grounds it.
I will also use 2 or 3 at different heights either at the top of the layout, top of the photo or side. Sometimes I add bakers twine.

I have used 8-10 tags going across a page in two rows. Then I'll put smaller pics on the tags. The bottom row of tags is usually upside down. That way you get lots of patterns across a page.

I posted this layout last year sometime which features lots of (homemade) tags. But like others, I’ve never really stopped using tags. 😊 I layer with them, I stick them behind the photo to hide my journaling, or to ground my title, or as a base for embellishment clusters.
