I had a basket full of washi tape that I wasn’t really using besides for decorating cards, borders for other ATCs etc., and I wondered what to do with them.
An idea came to me when I wondered if washi tape would make a good scenery piece all by itself. I figured that this was the perfect thing to try first!
This idea came to life when I made an ATC for @saintcady in the Happy Mail Craftalong.
Behold a scenery piece made entirely of washi tape!
(Don’t mind how the picture turned out)
The next thing I tried was something a little different. A piece of happy mail for saintcady’s son.
After that one, I moved on from scenery pieces to types of rainbows I could make. The first few ATCs have washi tape that I so graciously used (took) from my mom.
“Panda Rainbow”
“Hearts of a Penguin”
“Rainbow Penguin”
“Axolotol’s Daydream”
Eventually, I bought more washi tape and no longer had to use my mom’s for some of the colors.
“Rainbow Butterfly Picture”
“Plants Ahoy”
After a while the rainbows stopped and new things arose. Like, maybe, a cat or panda bears?
“Night Kitten”
“Life is an Adventure”
“The Pandas are Watching”
“Parrots”
I like using my washi tape this different way than what I was doing before, even if it takes longer to create, because the final product always looks better than when I start.
