Lollipop box

I've been working on a tag flip like item using the items I received in Lollipop boxes. It started out as a notebook, but every time I added some of the paper to the notebook it would rip a bit at the connection at the top, so I figured I'd still use the paper, but punch a hole at the top and use a binder ring to hold them together. I stopped at October the last time I sat down and worked on these. So I started with November this time, it was a bit harder as I didn't have any of the stickers.

 First page:

 The tag had my paperclip on it, I cut out the quote from the post card and added the jeweled hearts to the top and onto the background paper.
Second page:

 I cut out the banners from the ephemera sheet as well as the hearts. The lace was from Hollar, with a quote from the kit. I added a mermaid sticker from the Dollar Tree in the middle.
Third page:

 The mermazing was from the ephemera sheet as was the tail piece. I layered the mermazing on a scrap of paper and used it to cover my name. I layered the tail piece on a mini doily die cut from a swap and put it on the background paper.
Fourth page:

 I layered a doily from the kit with a die cut from my stash, the blue circle is from the ephemera sheet and I punched a one inch circle from the post card. I added a foam sticker on top of it all. I added a scrap of paper with some sequins from the kit. I added the hello die cut from the kit at the top.
Fifth page:

 The tail is from the postcard, I added the quote from the ephemera sheet. I also added the jeweled hearts to the bottom.
I remember opening the December kit at work, apparently I never took a picture of the full kit.
First page:

 I put the banner stickers on the left and right edges of the page. The banners on the right have heart stickers on them. I also added some wood veneers with some champagne colored flat back pearls.
Second page:

 I covered one of the tags with a scrap of paper and a scrap of the post card. I added the walking, sweaters and hat stickers to it and put it on the page.
Third page:

 All these items are from ephemera sheet.
I created this tag with the idea of putting it on one of the pages, but then didn't like the placement on the pages I had left.

 Again, I covered it with a scrap of paper and added some stickers.
Fourth page:

 I just trimmed the post card down and put it on the page.
January:

 I didn't have the sticker sheet or an ephemera sheet for this one, so it was a particular struggle.
First page:

 I really like how this one turned out. The pink doily paper was from my stash, I just trimmed it down and added it to the corner. The blue pieces are from the post card. The forever is from the description sheet. The captured and hearts were leftover from the September postcard. I added the chipboard frame (peachy cheap) with a baby picture of mine to it.
Second page:

 I cut down one of the bags to put on the background and added some of the postcard. I'm not entirely sure which kit the flowers came from, but I added them to the page.
Third page:

 I went with a tag on this one, too. I covered my name with a piece of tape that held a paper clip on. I punched out the flower shapes (I wish they were suns) from a paper in my stash.
Fourth page:

I found the stickers in the box, but realized later they weren't from this kit, though they worked with it. The word sheet is from the kit.
Apparently my limit is three months, I couldn't get inspired to start February.

Sweet Treats Tag Flip Book

I've been wanting to try a tag flip, and when one of my groups posted one with a sweet treats theme, I jumped on it.
We had to have 4 decorated tags with the theme
2 pocket tags
1 quote tag
2 washi samples.
I had picked up some wall stickers at Dollar Tree specifically for this swap as well as some cupcake themed invitations at a garage sale.
Here's what I created.
The front:

 This is one of the Dollar Tree wall stickers.
Back of this tag:

 I stuck the sticker on some green cardstock for the top and some beige cardstock for the sticks. I cut down a project life card for the back.
Second card:

 I got these donut die cuts in a swap, the 'from the bakery' piece is from a paper that had a lot of cute sale sayings, the stickers are from my stash.
Back:

The ice cream paper has been in my stash for awhile. The two black pieces are from the same paper as the black piece above. The small stickers are from a sticker book from Walmart, The corner paper is a cut down project life card, and the big candy sticker is a puffy sticker from Hobby Lobby.
Third card:

 The macaroon piece is from Hobby Lobby, the macaroon stickers are from Walmart, and the 'totally yum' is a project life card.
Back:

 This is one of my pocket cards. The background piece actually has a donut on it. I just attached the front piece with washi and put some stickers in it.
A stamp set from Dollar Tree:

 Fourth tag:

 There's that ice cream paper again. I found this project life card in my stash and the stickers are from a carnival themed sticker sheet. I added some cupcake washi to the bottom.
The back:

 I was originally going to have this be the quote tag, but I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be a sweet treat themed quote, or just a random quote, so I thought this way I was covered both ways. It's actually a project life card, I added some gems to the top and the gem ice cream.
Washi samples:

 Fifth tag:

 Here's the invitations I bought, I made a pocket at the bottom, by cutting off the bottom of another invitation. I used some more of those donut die cuts to make a paper clip, and left the rest in the pocket.
The back:

 I covered it with some sprinkle paper and another one of the Dollar Tree wall stickers with some gems at the bottom.
Sixth card:

 This one has popsicle paper as the background and I just attached a sheet of stickers.
The back:

 A scrap of the sprinkle paper and some more of that black paper, it was covered in these cute pieces I just cut apart. I added some stickers that looked like malts and shakes. The sticker on the top is actually a scented sticker.
Last card:

 I found the 'tutti fruitti' piece in my stash and just added some popsicle stickers.
The back:

Again with the popsicle paper, I just added some foam stickers to it.
I had fun making this, I will definitely be making more in the future. I'm also excited I used some stuff that's been sitting in my stash for awhile. I'm *trying* to use more of my stash and not buy more stuff.
Here's what I received, it's beautiful. I was feeling great about mine, but this one is amazing. I love that she used doodle bug papers and embellishments. I love doodle bug, I just don't like paying the prices for them.

How cute is everything?
And the extras she sent in the package:

How cute are these? I love it when people make me rosettes. I love rosettes, but I feel my handmade ones are not as nice as the ones made with dies and punches.
