Stampers With an Attitude January Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Stampers with an Attitude January Blog Hop!  If you have come from the ever creative Melinda Everitt's blog you are on the right track. The Stampers with an Attitude are excited to show artwork using Close to My Heart Washi tape and one of our stamp sets, so here we go.

Washi tape is one of the newest and biggest ideas for decorating your cards, scrapbook pages and just about anything you want to decorate. Washi tape has been out for a while and the designs are really beautiful! I love stamping and using our (CTMH) background and texture papers, therefore until lately I have just set aside the Washi tape, I just wasn't sure?! So, after Christmas I decided to just jump right in and go for it! Then -  along came the Stampers with and Attitude's blog challenge for January using Washi tape!!! Coincidence??? Hmmmm ~ Either way it's working out perfect for me. And - by jove - I think I've got it!!  I love Washi tape!!

Most all of the cards for my card clubs are KISS friendly, and FUN!
I wanted to design a card using Washi tape - and surprise them with a card that doesn't have my usual B&T paper designs. I hope they like it - so simple and FUN - the most important thing when it comes to creating.

The Washi tape I used for this card are ~ Silver Geometric (Z1932), Slate Polka Dot (Z1817) and the Lagoon Washi tape is from the Holidays from the Heart Collection which is no longer available, I had this card made before the end of the year. Using Art Philosophy I cut out a tag for the sentiment and attached it with Slate Bakers Twine. The Congrats stamp is from the Artiste stamp collection. I hope this shows you how easy it is to use Washi tape and how beautiful it makes your designs.

I will now send you on your way to the next blogger ~  Sheila Bennett  you will love her design.

Thanks for stopping by ~
