Washi tape embellishments

Hello Love My Tapes fans! This is Maya and today  I am sharing a layout with 4 different washi tapes that I used in three ways.

I am working on the pictures from our recent trip to Toledo Zoo and I was glad to find a roll of fish washi tape in my collection - perfect for the aquarium pictures! I used it as a border and a design element.

I used two different rolls of green chevron washi tape to accent the pictures (tape one and tape two)

I covered a piece of cardstock with camera washi tape and cut the cameras out to use as embellishments.

Check the Love My Tapes etsy store, you will sure find fun washi tapes for any layout.

Teacher thank you card

Hello Love My Tapes fans! This is Maya and today I am going to share a quick teacher thank you card.

I started by covering the card base with few rows of black washi tapes. I used Chalkboard Numbers, Black Floral and Black Grid.

I added two pieces of patterned paper - the bottom is 3.5"x3.25" and the top is 3.25"x3" including the punched edge.

I added an apple and "thank you" sentiment that I cut with Silhouette Cameo from vinyl but any store bought embellishment will work great here.

By changing the colors of  the patterned paper I made a sweet set of matching cards - ready to be given to the teachers,

When I make card sets I like to keep the design the same and change just one element. Another option would be to change the colors of the washi tape.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Layout with washi tape frame

Hello Love My Tapes fans! This is Maya and today I am sharing a layout where I used washi tape to draw attention to my focus photo by framing it with washi tape.

Few months ago my family attended a bingo night at our elementary school. It was out first bingo night and I wanted to add this moment to our family scrapbook. I saved few bingo cards and printed three pictures that I snapped with my phone.

The pictures are far from being great but they still tell a story. I wrapped the edges of my focus picture with red chevron washi tape and raised it with foam dots.

I used grey chevron, chalkboard numbers and more red chevron washi tapes to direct the flow and to make a spot for my title.

Check out Etsy store to see the tapes that I used and many others. I am sure your will find just the right tape for your next project.

Hello Summer layout

Hello Love My Tapes fans!  I find it hard to believe that summer is fast approaching, especially since I am still scrapping about last summer!  That is okay, with me though, because I love using the bright fun colors that always seem to go with my summertime pictures.  For this layout I combined some patterned paper (the strips) and lots of washi.  I cut a bunch of circles using my silhouette and thin white cardstock.  I then covered the cardstock with strips of washi tape before trimming the excess off.  I love adding extra patterns to my layouts with the use of washi tape, plus the rolls seem to last forever!!

Below are some close-up images, along with the washi tapes that I used.

 Behind the title is the Hot Pink Stripe Washi.  I matched up the strips of washi tape so that it would create a striped pattern on my circle.

 Here you can see the Black Grid Washi tape and the Hot Pink Stripe Washi.

The top circle is Pink Bubbles Washi, the little circle is Silver with White Star Washi and the bottom circle is Turquoise Chevron Washi.

Thanks for joining me today!

Tulip Time Layout

Hello Washi Tape Fans!

Susie here today with a spring layout featuring 5 different kinds of washi tape!

The tapes I used on this layout can be found in the Love My Tapes Etsy shop:

Blossom, Yellow Floral, Olive Green Diamond, Turquoise Chevron, Wood washi tapes

I chose the tapes based on the colors in the photos of my daughter and her basket of freshly cut tulips!  

The rhinestone strips emphasize the colors and line of the washi tape.

I covered some white cardstock with the wood grain washi and used an edge punch to 

create the decorative layered element under the main photo.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you find some time to play (with washi tape) today!

Cute CAS Cards for All Occasions!

Hello Washi Tape Fans! 

Susie here today to share a couple of Clean And Simple (CAS) cards.  I do not make cards very often and these are just my style!  They are quick and easy and incorporate just a few elements:  

a stamped sentiment, a photo sticker, and washi tape!

I chose these 2 rolls of washi, which you can find at the Love My Tapes Etsy store, because they coordinated with the Paper House Snapshot Sticker images I wanted to use:

Triangles Washi, Bunny Frog Washi

Did I mention these cards are super simple?  I started by cutting a piece of 8.5" x 11" white cardstock in half and folding it to create a card.  Next I laid down a strip of washi about half an inch up from the bottom.

I stamped the sentiment, applied the photo sticker and the card was done!  

I love the way the washi tape makes the colors in the photo sticker *pop*!

The next card was almost as fast.  This time I created the base out of grass green cardstock.  I trimmed the white cardstock to 4"x 5.25" and adhered the panel to the front of the card.

I thought the whimsical critters and the colors on this washi tape were a good match for the fun photo sticker and the "happiness" sentiment!  Who doesn't love a cute kitty card?!

Two seriously cute cards in about 10 minutes!  

It took longer to gather and put away my supplies than it did to make them!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you find some time to play (with washi tape) today!

Crazy 4 U! card w/ Ange

Ok so I am pretty much addicted to washi tape!

I went and ordered myself a "few" more.

Yep, these stacks make me happy :)

And I got right to work on this fun card.

 

My husband and I just had our 17th anniversary, so I made this for him.

I started with a white cs base and then added this funky chevron tape. In the store it's called red, yellow, green masking tape. I layered the strips on a diagonal.

Next I added two strips of the Heart tape and my sentiment with Moxxie's black alpha.

My card needed just a little bit more so I cut a heart out of a scrap of paper and added the cute Lime with White polka dots tape. Then popped it up with some foam adhesive and added a few heart embellies.

Thanks for stopping by!

Mini card set with washi tape

Hello Love My Tapes friends!

This is Maya and today I am going to share a simple mini card set using minimal supplies.

I started by making 2.5"x4" card fronts. I used Print and Cut feature of my Silhouette Cameo to print and cut out the card front panels.

I added few rows of black washi tape in different patterns and finished with handmade book print flower.

I used foam tape to add the card front to the mini card that is just a regular A2 card cut in half.

I had a great time picking different colors of washi tape and matching it with different color of flowers. I used various types of mists for the flowers.

These cards look fabulous on their own and together as set. It could be a great gift for somebody special.

Thank you for stopping by! I hope I inspired you to make some sweet mini cards. Here is what I used.

Off To School ~Using Washi Tape on Your Layout

Hello Love My Tapes fans!  Lynn here today sharing my first post as a LMT designer!

I love using washi tape on my layouts.  There are so many different things you can do.  From creating your own background, to embellishments, to tearing it up to add some texture!

Here is what I created for you today:

First off I used the Rainbow Faded Stripes washi tape to create the border on each side of my layout..  Then I added some strips of  paper that I had in my stash and inked along the edges.  You can see in the photo below how I've tucked torn pieces of washi tape between the patterned papers.

I added some machine stitching directly on the washi tape for a fun effect.

I used Turquoise, Birds & Floral washi tape to create part of my title.  I simply adhered strips to a white piece of cardstock, then cut out the word "school" by hand.  Then I matted my word to another piece of white cardstock, cut it out, and traced around the letters.  I also used the School Lined washi tape to mat my photo!

An easy and fun way to use your tapes!

Here is a list of the items I used from Love My Tapes.
