I have been seeing a lot of crafters go for a more simplistic approach to their cards and crafts.
The more I see them, the more I like them.
I just find it hard for me to do.
Plus I don't really like how mine turn out when I do them.
I was browsing the web and came across this blog, Sprinkled with Glitter. I really liked the card she made with her washi tape.
So I wanted a go of it.
They came together pretty quick. I made both of these cards in about an hour....which for me was really quick ;)
I used a script background stamp. My stamp wasn't big enough for the
card so I had to piece it together...not liking it, as it didn't match
up perfectly.
I then took a white piece of card stock and adhered strips of washi tape side by side.
Stamped
my sentiment with Staz-On ink. Staz-On ink is a must as the washi tape
has a slick surface and any other ink will smear or wipe off.
Lastly I added some twine and popped it up with pop dots.
For the inside of my cards, I used my index cards, but adhered them to the card with washi tape.
I hope you all had a creative Thursday :)

ReplyDeleteI think these are really effective and love the text background. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteThese look great! Love the colours- is this the tape you found at Target?
ReplyDeleteThese are so fun and I love the simple look! I know what you mean about simple. Sometimes I make a simple card and I think it just looks plain. It's hard for me to tell the difference with my own work.
ReplyDeleteLove these cards! Especially the hello one.
ReplyDeleteI really love these washi cards! The colors are so bright and cheerful!
