| This is so hot right now but I honestly haven't figured out what all the fuss is about! What cool things have you done with Washi tape? |

| I have the Tim Holtz tape--not sure if it is the same thing. I haven't done much with it yet. I covered some chipboard very haphazardly then cut out some shapes |

| Here's a few pages that I've used the tapes on...  and  I basically like to use them to tape down photos or for borders. I also like tearing pieces like I did on my second page here in the corner. |

| Beautiful layouts Andrea!
You can use washi tape to make flowers, to cover chipboard, and even as binding for small books/altered albums! I even use it in my gift wrapping in place of traditional tape.. a bit pricey compared to traditional tape, but it adds a little 'something' to the gift I think. |

| Beautiful pages, Andrea!! I love washi tape. I have maybe 6 to 8 rolls. I use them for corners, binding, to make flowers and borders. They are really cool to alter frames with. |

| I love washi in my Project Life, and also on cards. Here are a few projects: http://www.fortheluvofartgallery.com/showphoto.php?photo=7209&title=things-i-love-about-me&cat=all http://www.fortheluvofartgallery.com/showphoto.php?photo=7243&title=birthday-wishes&cat=all I also use it as a tool-it holds projects down on my Silhouette mat in a pinch (when the sticky of my mat wears off), and I used it to mask off the outer edges on this card: http://www.fortheluvofartgallery.com/showphoto.php?photo=7280&title=happy-spring&cat=all I bought most of mine on sale when Archivers had their 43% off all embellishments sale.  |

| Those are awesome layouts/cards ladies! Great job.
I have never used the Washi tape but have tons of the Tim Holts tissue tape. If I can figure out how to upload a photo into a reply I will post it. _______________________ ~*~ Sherrie ~*~ Any day that I get to do some crafting is a GREAT day http://www.fortheluvofart.com/

| I heard Target now carries 4 packs for $4 in the office supply area (by the post it notes), if anyone wants to ease in to washi.  I am going to have to check those out and add them to my stash! |

| I love washi just because of all the color it adds and also just the look of it. Use it to tack down photos, journaling cards and just to add a little embellishment here and there.
I grabbed those at Target! They are a great deal, 4 rolls for $4! |

| Here's a picture of some of the rolls. They come in packs of blue, green, red, orange. You get 4 rolls to a pack. There is a solid, stripe, small dots and large dots. They are not found in the scrapbook aisle though. They are actually in the office supply area. There are matching paper clips and other stuff so it's easy to overlook. Hope that helps!  |
