Tape + Felt.

Posted on March 4, 2011April 25, 2011by Lisa

Two of my favorite things to make cards with are washi tape (aka Japanese masking tape) and felt. They add so much texture to a card, don’t you think? I especially love all the things you can do with tape: make borders, adhere messages, hey — even make some grass for a cute little felt […]

Very *pinteresting*!

Posted on February 23, 2011April 25, 2011by Lisa

Have you heard of Pinterest? I didn’t until yesterday. It’s super addicting. And really fun! It’s kinda hard to describe, but after using it for only one day I am totally addicted!

Tape-a-licious!

Posted on June 17, 2010April 25, 2011by Lisa

As soon as I spied this faux bois tape by A Muse I knew I had to have it to make my Dad a Father’s Day card. And I gotta tell ya, I giggled the whole time I made it! I think tape makes the perfect embellishment for “guy” cards — it’s not too frou-frou […]
