Washi Tape Challenge

The latest challenge at Alphabet Challenge Blog is U for Use Washi Tape.  As a former design team member, I love the challenges on this blog.  I used the washi tape to decorate my decorative oval diecut and layered it over foam for dimension.

 

 

I used an extra wide washi tape and covered a piece of cardstock.  I ran it through my Vagabond with this oval cutting die.  Washi over cardstock is prettier than patterned paper because the tape gives it a translucent tissue effect.

 

I cut the layered butterfly from Tonic Studios Satin Cobalt cardstock - so luxurious!  The butterfly die has a solid layer and then a decorative cut out layer cut from the same cardstock.  I only adhered the center of the butterfly so the wings could stand up a bit.  I usually layer different papers together, but this satin cardstock is pretty by itself.  I added Silver Petals gems from Nuvo for the butterfly body.  I layered the oval over more Tonic Studios satin mirror cardstock.  So elegant!
