Washi Christmas


You know all that Washi tape you have been hoarding in a drawer?  Get it all out and try this - it is an easy card to do using coordinating Washi tape.  
  • I chose tapes with red or gold designs or glitter.  
  • The red & gold tape was layered alternately on a piece of green scrap CS.  
  • Three trees were cut from that CS using the Stampin' Up "In the Woods" framelet Die set.  
  • The set comes with the 2nd die to cut a mat that frames the tree - I cut three frames out of white CS.  
  • White scraps were used to create the snowy forest floor & the glittered scraps were cut to add a little more decoration to the trees.   
  • Finally, the trees were layered &/or elevated on the base CS using foam tape. 
I created this for the new 613 Ave C  challenge starting Dec 2:  "ATG/ optional Twist: "Use Washi Tape"  You have the month of December to show your creative talents!   For details of the challenge and for some very creative ideas from the DT's incredible inspiration concepts -  click HERE!

Create wildly and color with abandon!

  4. I really like the tormented symmetry offered by this image.
    The President says if you rake the floor there is less chance of a catastrophic fire. I just ruined a whole section of carpet around my tree.

  8. Your card is so fun and clever! Those trees are just popping off the page with color. I can imagine that this technique would also work great with card scraps. Thanks for joining the Anything Goes Challenge on the Art Impressions Blog. Jil
