Washi Tape

Hello Crafters,

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Today I share with you a card that we did at my Punch Art class a week or so ago. I wanted to share with the class just how easy it is to create a card in just a few minutes with Washi Tape!!!

Petite Petals

All we did was apply 3 strips of Wash Tape to one side of the card before using Petite Petals Bundle, Label Love Bundle and the Papillon Potpourri and coordinating punch.

Begin by stamping the images onto cardstock, punching them out and adhering them with dimensionals to the card. It’s that easy!!!!

Stampin’ Up! have some amazing stamp sets with coordinating punches and I have used 3 of them here.

Gingham Garden Washi Tape

I accidentally splashed a little bit of pink ink onto my card, so instead of getting mad and throwing it away and starting again, I decided to bring out the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set and grunge it up a bit… you can’t even tell I made a mistake right?!!!!

The Washi Tape is Gingham Garden and this also has a coordinating Designer Series Paper.

The inks used are Melon Mambo and Daffodil Delight. They are so bright and cheery.

I also added some rhinestones to the centres of the flowers for a bit of bling.

Wedding Card

Hello Crafters,

Today I want to share with you a wedding card I was asked to make for a work colleagues sister who got married on Saturday!

Naturally she wanted something special for her sister, so I got out the Scallop Tag Topper Punch.

I did the base card in White, then added a layer of Silver Foil Sheet and stamped an image from the Label Love stamp set with Versamark ink and embossed with silver embossing powder.

I punched the Mr & Mrs image with the Artisan Label punch. I punched another from the Silver Foil sheet and cut it in half through the centre and glued each piece to the image so it gives it a layered effect.

The embossing is done with the Lacy Brocade TIEF (r).

Scallop Tag Topper Punch

The bells are stamped with an image from the Best of Brides & Babies stamp set, only available until the end of April 2014!

I used some Silver ribbon to tie the card closed.

Here is a close up!

I love how this turned out and love the silver and white combination for a clean and classy look for a wedding.
