Make
your own Washi tape with Ann Butler's products
This
is my version for faux washi tape, made with medical paper tape you can buy in
every drugstore for a very low cost. So buy one and you can make your own
different in colors and patterns tapes in a very simple way.
1.
Adhere 6 paper tape strips over some non sticky surface (I used the original
one, but any smooth plastic with do the work).Adhere your tapes with spaces: we
are going to color them and we don't want them to
get another color from a
strip that was too close
2.
Color each strip with different Ann Butler's Crafter's inks using a sponge or
any other applicator.
Let
the ink dry a lot! I didn't want to dry it with a heat gun as I was not sure
about the result to the delicate
adhesive of those paper tapes.
3.
Now, when your strips are dry, re- arrange them close one to another as we want
to stamp over a bunch of colored tapes all together. Pick any 2'' Ann Butler's
stamp (Unity) and stamp over the colored tapes with this single square as we
want it to be " the same tape pattern in 6 colors). Use permanent black
ink of any
kind.
4.
Now I just made this sample card with diagonal cutting of my stamped faux tapes
and some small embellishments around. The circled sentiment was a double die
cut and the background was dry embossed with embossing folder. Both embossed
panel and the basic card were inked with Aquamarine ink around the edges.
