Making memories tag maker...anyone tried one?

[mousiemousie]

Has anyone used one of these?

Are they any good?

I have one and they are ok. If you like amking tags... I have made three so far and had it for about a month, I scrap very night too.

I wouldn't buy it if I saw it now that I had used one but then i'm not a 'taggy' type scrapper.... if that makes sense.

Mmmm...do you find it easy to use?

I hope I use mine - was thinking of making tags from photos...

DON'T

Flatten them in your Sizzix, big shot, tagalong or side kick.

Failing that you can faltten t hem with a knife

??? Do they need flattening??? Haven't tried yet!

Thanks for the tip pixiefish!

They are easy to use... as in they have template type things to cut exactly to the tag shape which are handy but not impossible to do without. The tag 'machine' just flattens the rim of the metal tag, if that makes sense- which you could do with hundreds of other things... gently with a hammer, knife etc as the metal is very soft.

I used to make photo tags but haven't been overly impressed- you could do it with other pieces of your kit exactly like pixiefish has suggested.

ooh, good tip Pixie!! I have often admired people's work where they have obviously made their own tags. I'm going to try that one - and I don't need another machine
