crushin' on washi...

Hi again!  I have a few projects to share with you today using my favorite embellishment, washi tape!  It's delicious stuff, plain and simple.

First up, I have a step by step tutorial up on the I am Doe blog all about using washi in a new way...here are some peeks.

For this project I pulled out my favorite washi tape in fresh, fall colors including Polka Dot with Heart, Pink Picnic Table Plaid, and Gold Airmail washi.

I also used my Papertrey Ink dies to cut out my fall leaves from chipboard, Vintage Cream, and Limeade Ice felt.  

The stamps used are also from Papertrey Ink...love it when I get to use my fall stamps.  They are from the Falling Leaves and Tag-Its #7 sets.  

This card was also created from Freckled Fawn and is based on a sketch you can find here...it's SO beautiful and inspiring.  

I used Pink Airmail, Blue Doily, and Chevron Mint washi along with  Melissa Frances paper, scrunched seam binding from My Craft Spot, and Papertrey Ink's Gratitude Journal and Fillable Frames Additions 2 stamp sets.  

Lastly, this card was created for Freckled Fawn's Pinterest challenge...so much fun.  I used several of the same washi as in the above cards in addition to Heart, Star Line, and  Heart Cloud washi.  

If you'd like to play along in the Pinterest Challenge, you have until October 1st to post your project and your Pinterest piece AND, there's a Freckled Fawn giveaway to the lucky winner!

Happy Tuesday!

I know you've shared before how you feel about sharing your work and having others use it. However, you really should think about adding a sweet little watermark to your projects, Melis. Nowadays, everyone's work ends up on Pinterest and various inspiration blogs,and it's just a good idea for people to know who the original artist is. Just a thought. SO many darling things to see here as always, sweetie. Thanks so much for sharing so freely.
God bless you,
Karen
