It's a Washi Tape Christmas!

Hi everyone!
I wanted to devote some more time to washi tape and since we are now entering the Christmas season, I thought a few  Christmas cards with washi tape accents would be nice.

I call today's card "Irish Christmas". I didn't intend to make an Irish Christmas card. It just sort of ended up that way.

I started out with a plain white cardstock card base.  I added three strips of washi tape to the right side. THEN I embossed the top of my card.  I think the embossing makes the washi tape look like more a part of the card than tape on top of the card.


I added the embossed sentiment with mounting tape.

I really love this embossing folder with the little snowflakes.

Here you can get a good look at the washi tape and how well it embossed.
I hope you enjoyed this first card. I will have others this weekend!

NOEL - a Precision Die Card

Hi everyone!   I always look forward to this time of year. I love making Christmas Cards.
Today's card is a precision die card.  I used a rectangle die, punched holes along the side and threaded red organza ribbon through them.  I tied both ends in a bow at the bottom with a brass bell. (On the inside of my card is a chipboard Christmas tree sticker.  You can see to the right a "TO" gold sticker.

Come back again for more Christmas cards!
