a quick repurposed craft - luggage tag
For this quick project, I re-purposed the vintage leather business card holder portion of a wallet into a luggage tag. I bought the wallet for a dollar, but found it too bulky to use. So I took the business card holder out of it and used a scrap booking template for a tag and made matching front and back pieces. I cut out the center of the back and used one of the clear card envelopes for a window. I even cut down the information card to fit in the new luggage tag. I used scrap booking stickers to create the design on the front of the tag. The stickers are quite strong and I didn't need to use any other glue to keep them in place on the leather. I used a regular paper punch to put the hole in the top of the tag and secured thin ribbon through it. Now I have a cute little monogrammed luggage tag. Get those creative ideas flowing and enjoy making fashion happen!
