Washi Tape, Tape It and Gorgeous Grunge

Have you played with the Washi Tape yet? If not, what are you waiting for?  This stuff is a blast to add to cards, and especially fun for scrapbooks or smash books. 

Here the Epic Day This & That Washi Tape has been blended with the Tape It Stamp set.

 

What a fun combination - a little of each makes you start to wonder, when looking at the card, exactly which is which!  The Stamp Pads used were Gumball Green, Daffodil Delight, and Pool Party. Gumball Green and Very Vanilla card stock were used.  The Itty Bitty Banners stamp set provides the sentiment. It is accented with Basic Jewels Rhinestones.  A piece of Gumball Green Stitched Ribbon add a little texture. Another stamp called Gorgeous Grunge was layered to break up the tape look.

 

I was a little hesitant about this one at first actually. It was one that I was given at Convention and wondered if I would use it after getting home. I love the controlled spatter!  These stamps are fabulous at providing that extra element that you don't really want detracting from your main event, but provide the depth and that missing "thing" from your card or page.
