Washi Tape is so very versatile. I love the bold designs that stand out on a card, the soft washes that act as a great background and thin washi tapes that act as a border. Let me show you some different ways I have used the Altenew Washi Tapes.
Washi as a background
For each of the examples below, the Washi works as a background. I typically pair the backgrounds with die cut shapes or letters. See the captions with each image for products I used.
Rainbow Stripes Wide washi tape peeks out from behind a vellum cover. Tall Vase mini stamp die cut sets off the rainbow.
Botanical Rhapsody Wide Washi tape is colored in with Altenew Artist Markers. Die cut letters from Bold Alpha cut from Gold Foil paper set off the background.
Glitter Flurries Washi adds a lot of shine and is so beautiful I wanted to preserve as much of the washi as possible. Bold Alpha dies cut from the same background and then replaced so they sit higher than the background is the perfect complement.
Round Art Washi tape is graphic and bold. A strip of Emerald Gold Trim hides the seam between the two pieces. Bold Alpha die cuts in Gold Foil paper works perfectly with this bold background.
Washi as a trimming
Looking for a way to finish off a card? Want a hint of color or shine that is not too overpowering? Grab that Washi tape and add just enough to complement your design.
Golden Edge Washi adds just enough shimmer for this mini poppy stamp.
Gold Foil 1″ washi is the perfect amount of shine for this card featuring the lovely ornaments stamp set.
