You can use regular office tags to make a mini-book for extra photos or journaling. Any office tags will do. I used 2 1/5" x 4 3/4" in this article..

Take four office tags. Optional: if you want to alter the color of the tags, use ink and distress each tag to your taste. Line up the tags. Fold them all down the top (the part with the hole) approximately 1" from the top.

Next, separate two of the folded tags and turn them so that two tags will face one way, two will face the other direction. Adhere the two middle tags to each other AT THE BOTTOM near the fold. Adhere the other folded pieces down. This will make the actual “book”

Next, cut a strip of paper (something to match your layout) 2 ˝" x 3". Fold in half (2 ˝ x 1 ˝") . This will be your binding. Wrap this paper around the ends of the book (the folded back part) and glue the paper down to secure and cover the folded part.

Embellish the cover as you desire and place photos or journaling inside the book. Adhere to your page.
