Creating fun projects with Washi Tape

Happy Monday friends!

Im back on the blog with some super easy to make cards using all three Washi tapes that were released by Pinkfresh Studio last month.

Washi Tapes are super versatile and lately I've been decorating my envelopes too with the leftover pieces I had so that's just another reminder of how you can match your card with your envelope.

For today's post I wanted to show you three simple ways to use these washi tapes creatively with several Essential dies and even the coordinating die of the Washi tape set.

For my first project I used the Peony Perfection Pink Washi:

1. Adhere your Pink Washi to 80lb. white cardstock and cut it out with the coordinating die.

2. Use the two coordinating dies to cut out the bottom right corner and the upper left corner of an A2 side panel.

3. Secure that negative cut panel with removable tape onto your side folding A2 cardbase.

4. Inlay the peonies and leaves onto your front panel following the pattern of the negative die cut piece.

5. Remove the negative piece, add foam adhesive on the back and foam mount onto your front panel.

6. White heat emboss on vellum several peonies, cut them out with the coordinating die and adhere them in the center of your card.

7. Stamp your sentiment with Detail Black ink and foam mount it onto those vellum peonies.

8. Lastly add som some Blossom glitter drops.

For my second project I used the Flowers for the Soul Washi along with the Nested Hexagons Blanket Stitched dies:

1. Adhere your Washi to a piece of parchment paper, secure it with tape and run it through your die cutting machine. This will allow to turn your washi into stickers.

2. Adhere your Washi onto white cardstock too and cut it out with the coordinating die.

3. Cut a piece of 3 1/4 by 6 1/4 inches out of white cardstock and adhere several stickers of the Flowers of the soul washi around this panel.

4. Use one of the Nested Hexagons Blanket Stitched dies to cut out to hexagons in the top and bottom of this mini slimline panel.

5. Cut and fold you 6 1/2 by 6 1/4 cardbase and foam mount your front panel on top making sure you don't press to hard.

6. Adhere  your washi cardstock onto your cardbase to continue the pattern of the front panel lifting it carefully.

7. Use the Basic sentiments die to cut out your sentiment out of green cardstock. Cut out another layer of this sentiment out of Gold Matte foil cardstock, glue them together and adhere it onto it shadow piece cut out of vellum.

8. White heat emboss the Flowers for the soul stamp onto vellum, cut it out and adhere them under the sentiment and under some leaves.

9. Use some Leaf Glitter drops to add some extra shine.

For my last project I used the Blomming Grace Washi:

1. Cut out several pieces of this washi using white cardstock with the coordinating die.

2. Cut out six squares frames using the two smallest dies from the Nested Square Diagonal Stitch dies.

3. Dry emboss the new Leafy Lattice Press Plate onto white cardstock and adhere it to your cardbase.

4. Foam mount the six square frames onto your front panel.

5. Tuck the purple and orange flowers from the Blooming Grace washi under your square frames.

6. Stamp your sentiment from the Blooming Grace stamp set with Detail Black ink and cut it out. Cut another layer of this sentiment out of Blush Glitter Cardstock and foam mount it onto your front panel.

I hope these cards gave you some ideas to use your washi and have  fun creating!

Thank you so much for stopping by and happy crafting!
