Season of Style Washi Tape Christmas

I spotted this design on Selene Kempton's blog and wanted to try working with the Washi Tape.  It's soooo easy to work with and I love the look it gives!  Thank you Selene!


Here's another card that shows you how to make use of your "hidden" card stock.  The 2nd layer on this card is Very Vanilla and will be covered with a layer of Cherry Cobbler.  The Very Vanilla is measured at 5 1/4" x 4".  Since all you will see is the edges, you can use the underneath area for stamping and punching.
** A quick tip:  Remember to keep enough room around the edge for your Snail Adhesive to roll by, but also remember don't go so far up in the middle that your punch won't work.  **


Punch out your stamped images:

Here's how it looks attached to the Crumb Cake base.

Then, with the Cherry Cobbler embossed card stock, it's all covered up.  Awesome!  No need find little scraps or make new scraps to stamp and punch the ornament and sentiment.


The panel in the middle of the card is made with Very Vanilla cut at 4 1/4" x 3 1/4".  Take your Season of Style Washi Tape and start covering at a diagonal.  The Washi Tape is so very easy to use.  Line it up and when you get to the end, just go a bit further and gently tear it.  No need for scissors.  Then just fold the leftover behind the card.

I punched the center with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch just as easy as could be!  Save the center for another card.  Don't waste perfectly decorated paper!

Sponge the sentiment with Old Olive and attach with Stampin' Dimensionals.  Attach the ornament with Stampin' Dimensionals as well and add a simple bow of 1/8" Old Olive Taffeta Ribbon.

  2. Thanks Danita! I'm really liking the Washi Tape! I don't think I like it randomly placed, but organized like this, I'm very happy with it!
