Hi friends, I found some cute washi tapes on Amazon and before I knew it they were in my cart and delivered to my home! After some deliberation, I have decided to “use before buy” and challenged myself to use these washi tapes as much as I can. I am also wanting to do the same thing with the rest of my craft supplies. Unless it is a new tool or a significantly different design that I cannot recreate with what I have, I will not buy it. This is also challenging me to think about multiple ways to use my supplies. Not sure how long my resolve will hold but let’s see 🙂

So in today’s project, I implemented the first idea using a wide washi tape – using it to ground my design.

I also made a quick video:

If you prefer written steps:

1. Dry emboss the card front with a 3D embossing folder.
2. Create a base layer on the bottom half of the card front with washi tape. Cut across the width if needed. Add another slim washi as a divider between the washi design and the card base.
3. Put the flowers together and use chipboard stickers for sentiments.
4. Assemble the design and add gems to finish off.

Enjoy!
