Artsy Scrapbooking

This layout was just for fun, pure fun. I played with all kinds of goodies: inks, masks, rub-ons, washi tape, twine, stickers, paper strips, my beautiful girl's photo...you name it. No journaling , no real intent. Just fun solitary scraping with a chick flick one night.

Tutorial Tuesday-Washi Tape Weaving

Hello all!

I'm starting a new series of tutorials on my wee blog here. I've already recorded two videos and have a few fun ideas that I can't wait to share.

The first is Washi tape weaving. Washi Tape, for the uninitiated, is a Japanese art paper tape. I have quite a few rolls that I purchased from the Paper Place in Toronto, and hardly ever use them. I recently came across a tutorial on weaving that was lovely, but completely baffled me. So I put my crafty OCD to good use and developed a new way to play with it. I them filmed a cheesy video to share with you all.

Here is a couple of cards I made with the technique. The circular card is made from the sample I did in the video.

And without further delay here's the video...enjoy!!
