WOW!  Who knew that applying a few strips of pretty tape onto a piece of paper could create such WOW cards!  Well, I guess Michelle knew and she’s happy to share two beautiful card creations with us today.

I absolutely ADORE this card!!!  And talk about quick and easy — oh my!

See the full post on Michelle’s blog here.

Michelle used:

Stamps: JustRite Grand Sentiments, a clear set

Tape:  Prima Washi Tape – a combination of Zephyr, Rosarian, Welcome to Paris

Flowers:  Prima Flowers – a combination of Laraine, Perles, Charme Roses

Ribbon:  May Arts 1/4″ Silk Ribbon – Black

Miscellaneous:   Kaisercraft Rhinestones – Silver; Versa Fine Onyx Black Ink

And, YES, this card certainly makes ME smile — how about you?  Another beautifully simple, quick and easy creation.

Michelle used:

Stamps: JustRite Grand Sentiments, a clear set (the tiny flowers were from Grand Sentiments as well!)

Tape:  My Mind’s Eye Decorative Tape – a combination from the 8-pack tape sets:  Pink and Orange, Yellow and Grey

Miscellaneous:   Kaisercraft Rhinestones; Versa Fine Onyx Black Ink

And if you aren’t too familiar with these tapes, some of the manufacturers call them Washi Tapes while others call them Decorative Tapes.   Either way, they are just pretty tapes on a roll that you simply stick onto your card.  How easy can it get!  Use them in combination with decorative papers and stamped images, or use them alone.  Different manufacturers package them differently, and these are some that we have in stock:

This is Rosarian Washi Tape by Prima, that Michelle used on her first card above.

See the entire Prima Rosarian Collection here.

These  Prima rolls contain 5.5 yards (16.5) feet and sell for $2.00 each.  There are currently 7 different designs in stock in these $2.00 rolls.   Very affordable to stock up on many designs!

The latest CHA releases by Prima have new packaging and are called Prima Washi and Fabric Tape. They contain two rolls — one is Washi Tape (5.5 yards) and the other is Fabric Tape (1 yard).  These 2-roll packs sell for $3.00.

At this time (Monday morning) two of the NEW Prima CHA releases are in stock.  The remainder of the NEW CHA releases are arriving this week, beginning this evening when UPS arrives – can’t wait!  So beginning later this evening you’ll see all the NEW Prima entering the store, including their new Washi and Fabric Tape packages.

The two NEW Prima lines currently in stock are Engraver and Life Time.

My Mind’s Eye Decorative Tape is available in two packaging options.  The one shown is from the Lost and Found Oliver Collection.  These 3-roll packs are available to match all of their paper collections.  Each roll contains over 32 feet of tape, so each package gives you over 96 feet of tape.  That equals 32 yards of coordinated tape.  You are guaranteed to have a beautifully coordinated mix of pattern with these pacakges.  These 3-roll packs sell for $9.99.

My Mind’s Eye has also just come out with these beautifully coordinated 8-roll packs.  This one is Red and Black and there are a total of 6 color schemes available.  These rolls contain over 15 feet per roll (over 5 yards), for a total of over 40 yards per color coordinated  8-pack.  These sell for $12.99.

Have some fun mixing and matching all these beautiful tape options to create some quick and easy cards like Michelle did today!

All Washi/Decorative tapes can be seen here.

And this is the sentiment set Michelle used today – a JustRite Clear set called Grand Sentiments.  It contains 36 clear stamps with sentiments in a variety of sizes plus some very pretty stamps to further embellish your project!
