Inspired by Sara Naumann

Sara Naumann showed us how to make a washi tape card, here is a link to the video Paper Artsy has put on their You Tube Channel.

I liked the effect i got from using Pinata Alcohol inks Sapphire Blue and Calabazza Orange. Instead of making one panel i decided to use the half the A4 card and make it into an A5 card.

The washi tape is from Sainsbury’s, thank you again Keren the tape is really useful!

The stamps are from a very old foam set which is for weddings, liked these two bold words, thought they would suit this style of card.

I don’t have any of the sets Sara used so had to improvise. Used Magic Tape to get the text backgrounds. Stuck it onto book pages rubbed down and lifted the words onto the tape. Looks like home made washi tape, very effective and easy to stamp over using an Archival Black ink pad.

The flower was made using Paper Artsy die and beautiful swirl stamp from HP1005 set. The gems in the middle are semi precious and were from Manchester Minerals a very long time ago.

Used some of the cut off card to make the little embellishment under the flower.

Hope you like this version of Sara’s technique.

Thanks for dropping by, looking forward to your comments.
