Designer Tin of Cards with Washi

I mentioned recently that I wanted to use more washi and so this card started with the washi tape. In this case, it was from two suites – I have the floral boutique designer washi tape and the Pop of Pink designer washi tape. And I also wanted to use my Designer Tin of Cards set which so far hadn’t been inked up.

Stampin' Up! Designer Tin of Cards

I read on Pootles’ site recently that on the incentive trip, Pam Morgan demoed the Floral Boutique DSP and suggested treating the navy as a neutral – “navy and white and a pop of bright” and I thought that was an excellent idea. So after I’d put down a piece of the Floral Boutique DWT (Designer Washi Tape), I added a strip of the Pop of Pink DWT. I made both pieces long enough to wrap around the whisper white top layer. Well actually, the first piece wasn’t and I reclaimed that and used it on the envelope. Waste not, want not!

Next I stamped out the beautifully written sentiment from the Designer Tin of Cards set in night of navy on a piece of scrap which I cropped with a circle framelit. I cut another same sized circle from night of navy cardstock so that I could layer them.The night of navy one is glued to the card whereas the whisper white circle is popped up with dimensionals. To continue the pop of pink, I added three enamel shapes in melon mambo to coordinate with the washi tape.

To continue the idea of a pop of bright, I used melon mambo for the sentiment inside the card – this is from one of my favourite sets, Watercolor Wishes.

See you tomorrow,

    Very simple yet eye-catching, and a great use of washi tape. I have so much of it and the stack keeps growing. I am convinced there is something magical about washi tape in that no matter how much you use, it never diminishes!

      Thanks Ann. And thanks for explaining why I’ve never finished a roll of washi tape!!
