You know they say when you think you have a problem
the first thing to do is admit that you have a problem..
OK... Maybe just maybe I have a little problem.
I have a love of making Tags.. It all started so innocently..
Like this one.. I made this Tag years ago.. I used to love
to make a Tag and give them away with a book!! So really it wasn't
a Tag... It was a bookmark..

And Then that's when my little obsession started..
I stumbled on to this wonderful little blog..
Kard Krazy.. I thought I had died and gone to Heaven
A blog with people who love to make tags as much as
I do!! Here is the very first Tag I made for Tag Tuesday!!
That was back in Dec of 2009.
And I kept on playing making these little pieces of art!!!
Now I just counted and in my craft room right now I only have a little
over 40 tags.. I don't think that is too many.. Anyway some of them were
gifts from my wonderful blog friends..
So What do you think? Do I need an intervention?
Do you have the same problem?
How many Tags do you have?
Well of course I have another Tag to show you..
It if for this weeks challenge!
Louise is challenging us to make a Tag with a Tag on it..
What could be better than that!!
So here is what I came up with.. I just love this image. I think she is the sweetest..
Of course some stitching and some lace and some seam binding and
some pretty flowers and you have one pretty tag..
With a little Tag that says "love".. perfect for this time of year!!
Can't wait to stop by and see all the other Tags over
at Kard Krazy..
Thanks Louise for another fun week.. And giving me so much inspiration for
my little problem..
Hugs, Linda

Oh Linda,I wouldn't say you have a problem,however,I do,and mine is that you don't live round the corner lol! How I would have loved to have had you with me,I found the most perfect fabric shop,full of vintage goodies,wooden tags,yes TAGS! And vases full of pretty buttons ready to make a pick and mix of gorgeousness! I'll share my scrummy buttons on myblog later. There were skeins of threads and lace and ribbons...... You should have been there:) youd have had a field day. Keep on making your lovely tags,have a lovely weekend,Juliex
Hi there tag mad person..... nah not a real problem! but I'm glad to see them on display, would be a shame to hide the beautiful creations away. I share your love of tags but realised that I could only use them on cards so I stopped making them for a while.
Yours are stunning!!!:0) xxx
just beautiful linda!! love your tags, they are so amazing! i used to make a ton of tags, love making them. you inspire me to start making them again. thanks for sharing and have a wonderful friday and weekend! *hugs* steph :)
Great to meet another tag fanatic Linda.... Your tags are beautiful and long may you continue to make them. This one is particularly gorgeous. Have a great weekend, Annette x
Utterly beautiful, Linda!! Those little orange roses are the perfect accent for this fabulously vintage tag---on a tag!! Great work. :)
Pl ease don't stop making these beauties; I love them and its so wonderful to look at them. And a board filled with tags is even better :)
And the one you made for this week; so sweet and heartwarming....
I hope you have a wonderful weekend my friend..
Hugs,
Stella
Love it Linda! That image is adorabe and I love how you composed your tag. My favorite stitching and all those pretty embellishments. If it's a "problem" I'm not going to discourage you. :-)
Hey Linda ... I'm like that with cards!!! I make them ...send them ... give them ... and still I am overflowing ... yet I never seem to have the right one so have to make another Ha Ha ... love your sweet tags ... they are your journey in creation (take up less room too ... why didn't I think of that!)
Oooops! forgot to say just how beautiful this is ... stunning
I think we both need to check in to Hilda´s Tagaholics Cure Center and go cold turkey!!!
I broke out in a hot sweat when I saw the BOARD full of TAGS!!! then the box full of TAGS!!! My heart was pounding...yup, I think I have to check myself in ...pronto!! Your tag for Tuesday is super and just think...as full as the board already is...this can be the first one on the SECOND board full!!!! Have a great weekend! I am off to a whole weekend of painting....fun, fun...
Actually, I doubt that any of us notice that you have a problem. Is there some about "birds of a feather." No, I don't think so! Lovely tags and I love each and every single one! Hugs my friend!
ummmmm....I wouldn't say you have a problem. I say you have a creative outlet. A hobby. A great blog. ANYthing but a problem...

Happy Friday Linda!

LOL, your opening sounded so much like Dr. Phil, my idol....
I still can't stop laughing.....
oh my, linda, this is way too funny and cute, your post!! and then my eyes pop when I see those tags, simply breathtaking! I want to go to your craft room again, to see them in real life, touch them and feel them!!!!
You can never have enough tags, especially when they are as awesome as yours :D have a nice weekend, Janna
Linda, No intervention needed! All the tags at least have a reason and a purpose, if nothing else when you need one you will have just the right one! These are beautiful and the new one is beautiful as well. You have a way with your colors and photo's. Have a fun weekend. How's the cat?
Its BEAUTIFUL and So perfect for Valentines day! No 40 is not too many at all, So you don't need an intervention! Just a bigger display board! LOL. I'll have to count mine, I have some in a box ,some on a rack etc. I havent figured out what to do with them yet.
hugs Lynn
Hi, Linda! So wonderful to meet you! Thanks for coming over to say hello so I could find your lovely blog as well!
LOVE your tags! They're all so gorgeous--no intervention needed, my friend! Keep 'em coming! I love that sweet angel/fairy image, too--one of my favorites!
Hope you're having a wonderful weekend!
Julie
Gorgeous, the image is so beautiful and works a treat with the vintage style embellishments, beautiful! I too LOVE tags and have done for years. I have the old ones stashed away somewher, must dig them out and store them altogether. Great to also see how our styles change over the years. I used to work with very grungy dark colours and 'wierd' images but now prefer pretty, vintage style. Keep the tags coming, hey are gorgeous! Sue x
Linda, I love your post - you do make the most beautiful tags and I would say to continue with your crafting therapy!! Just gorgeous!!
Ahhh Linda, I love tags also. The first tag I made was for Tag Tuesday. :) Yours are all beautiful...love that sweet image with the lovely flowers. :)
Love your sweet tag...that image is adorable and you've enhanced it with your lovely style!
I think making tags is a very positive obsession, especially when the tags are as gorgeous as yours!
blessings~
Oh my gosh,
this is gorgeous Linda!!! WOW!! I think tags are like a little world on a card!
Happy Valentine's Day--I hope it is a wonderful day!!!
XO
I love this! That image i so sweet, and you really made it look so cute on your tag. I LOVE that you make tags! I like to make them too, but they NEVER turn out like yours do! xo
LOVE those tags
Hi Linda, You have some amazing tags. I just recently started to make tags and I'm really seeing how you can become addicted. They are fun to make and are great little gifts. Linda
Hi there Linda, I have something for you on my blog:0) xxx
Linda, Your tag on tag entry is so gorgeous. I have the same addiction as you. I love making tags. I sometimes don't know if they are bookmarks or if they are tags. I'm pretty sure the ones I give to the homebound folks must be tags since some have really bad eyesight.
Linda your tag is so very beautiful!!!!
NO problems here Linda! I think making tags is your intervention :) Papercrafting is a great form of therapy! ALL of your tags are gorgeous and your latest is beautiful! That sweet Vintage image and your stitching looks fabulous! I say~keep making those tags :)
Hey Linda! It's me again. There's a little something for you on my blog. :-) Hugs! Tracy
Oh I don't think that's a problem at all. I too love to make tags but I give a lot of them away so I probably don't have more than a dozen or so.
You'r tag is wonderful. Thanks for visiting my blog.
Some obsessions are problems, others are joys - I put making tags into that latter category! They are so much fun to make!!! And yours truly are little pieces of art - just beautiful!
Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving such a sweet comment on my birdhouse tag! Blessings, Becky
Your tags are too beautiful to be considered a problem! Love, love this card - the image is the sweetest!
How wonderful, another tag mad person :) I love making tags, too.
It is a most beautiful tag on a tag...beautiful!

Hi Linda , your tags are beautiful, I think they look great "on mass".Your recent tag on a tag is delightful. If you HAVE to have an addiction making tags is a great one.You know you could make your tags into a book..the book of tags.
The first tag is gorgeous but the display of them all together looks absolutley fabulous - what a gorgeous piece of home decor - love it!
Frankly I'm concerned that you ONLY have 40 tags when we are in our 87th week at Tag Tuesday....LOL! I know your little collection if filled with gorgeous tags because each time I visit your blog I find the most amazing work.
And today's tag is no exception!
Gorgeous!!! And one can definitely not have too many tags!!
Linda, thank you for showing us some of your tags and I don't think you have a problem at all. I just love your tags, and are the very happy owner of one of them <3 , the last one here is gorgeous and yes.. Love the image...
Hugs
Stunning tags !!! and yes I have the same obsession, my husband just doesn't get it at all, he thinks it is strange to be so consumed by them ( what does he know lol) Beautiful card too, thankyou for sharing xxx
Beautiful tags! They truly are works of art.
Gorgeous Linda! Love the stitching, really adds to it! And the little flowers are gorgeous!
The little cupid with the arrows is so adorable. Super sweet tag! If you have a problem I think we know a bunch of us who could join you! Consider us your support group although we probably will encourage you to continue in your existing condition. :)
Oh, I am seriously, seriously in love with your tag!! How gorgeous! LOVE that image and love the brown seam binding. You do tags beautifully!
I'm so happy you shared some of your previous tags and your tag pinboard. Now I want one of those. How cool to have something that beautiful to hang somewhere.
