Washi Tape Scraps

Here is a card using scraps of leftover wide washi tape which I cut into thinner strips to create a background. I then added an image from Jan's Digital Stamps called #1 Dad to create a simple card for Father's Day.


I used the already colored image from the digital set and fussy cut it out. I then placed it on a scrap of black card stock and then cut a thin border of black. After I had the washi tape strips on the white card base I then simply added this image to the front of it. Very easy card. The washi tape used is Altenew Watercolor Strokes. It is about a 2 1/2 inch wide tape but I cut the leftovers from another card into strips for this card.

I am entering this in the following:

God bless,

Hi Verna, I love this card and that washi tape...... I thought it was ink smooshed on the CS. Boy it really looks great. Thanks for a great card.

Barbara said...

I had to take a closer look as I didn't think it was washi tape at first. Great idea.

Really fun card! Lovely thought to use the wider and yet cut it down so it can be placed in different, fun directions!

Using washi tape is a lovely way to add to a card. I do like the main image and adding the tape made a great design.

What a great design, Verna! I had (can't find it!) that Washi tape and had no idea what to do with it! It looks perfect criss-crossed like you've done as a background for your image!! Hugs, Darnell
