K&Co Tag Memo Pad

Here's a my tag memo pad that I made from a kit by K&Co... I must say that for what it contains I was not overly impressed as the kit was almost £7... included was a chipboard tag, self adhesive tag paper, some ribbon, a memo pad, pencil, wooden peg, self adhesive flower, thread, 2 buttons & a self adhesive sentiment & a magnet...

However, I do now have a template for future projects...

If they only made these kits cheaper I think they would sell hundreds of them as they are extremely quick & easy to make but there's no way you could sell them as you would have to charge £10 to make a profit... I know I wouldn't pay that for a piece of chipboard with some embellishments on it.

Anyway, the enclose good clear instructions & all you do is attach the paper to the tag, tie the ribbons through the holes, attach the buttons, thread & self adhesive sentiment, place the self adhesive paper ribbon across the peg which you then glue to the tag & attach the self adhesive flower to the peg... this was the one flaw I found with the kit as I actually had to stick the flower to card, cut around & then attach as the full of the flower back is sticky.

When all your glue is dry you insert your memo pad & pencil then attach the self adhesive magnet to the back.

It may have cost almost £7 but took only 5 mins to construct... and I will be making more of them from my own template & using up the left over bits & bobs from my stash.

Happy crafting
