I love love your washi tapes! Can’t get enough of them. I have at least 12 or so and use them all. They make cardmaking so quick and easy and you can concentrate on the backgrounds, words and embellishments instead of coloring! But yes I do use your stencils with the washi a lot too. Would love to see a Drangonfly washi and a washi of all different greenery no flowers or berries. And of course a masculine one too!
This was such a lovely color scheme to play with!! I found out that blending Lavender on top of Peony and Mulberry Blush creates such a pretty shade!
It’s been a while since I’ve participated in these challenges and I’m so happy to have a chance to participate again! I love all your washis so I’m really excited about this one. And the suites are genius! I just bought all the ink pads and reinkers so I’m ready to keep taking part. I also created a reel for my cards on instagram, which is linked in my blog. I hope you’ll check that out too. Thank you to all the designers for our gorgeous card inspiration for this challenge and I look forward to the next one!
I ordered some Holiday Elements (fabulous sale price) and just received them in the mail – thanks for the quick service PFS!! I made a washi version as well as a stenciled one.
Loved this challenge as it got me to use colours together that I would not have used otherwise. Thank you!
I used the washi from Fluttering Butterflies and Artsy Floral on Stippled Plaid hot foiled background. The brackets were cut with the new Dotted Fancy Frames from the Create & Connect event happening next weekend. The sentiment came from Love & Graditude, also part of the event. Fun to use old and new together!
Love your Washi Tape Collections, glad you revised the designs too, as I have done ‘home surgery’ on my sets lol Sorry to see that you never picked winners from the memory keeping entries on the past 2 Challenges (June and July) without any warning here—the Challenges said there would be 2 winners announced, yet nothing—it’s sad. PFS got me back into scrapbooking after decades, I really enjoyed making the pages using your wonderful products and completed the 1st 60+ page book of our 1st grand daughter and have moved on to our 2nd one! Thanks for the inspiration.
I was excited to use a design from the February Create and Connect event to create a very summery card with the Sunflowers Washi tape suite.
Wish I could get my instagram photo to show the whole card.
I love Pinkfresh wide washi tape! It’s so beautiful and easy to use.
