Hey all, it's Erica! :D
Today, I've got a technique for you using a hot new scrapbooking product, decorative tape! Now, there are quite a few companies that make this tape but my current favorite is Pink Paislee's Artisan Tape.
I used this tape to make some embellishments for this layout about my husband's family's obsession with dominos. I chose the Black Dot tape because it looks like dominos.
To make the stemmed flower, I cut three 5" strips and looped them back on themselves, stacked them up and punched a hole in the middle with my Crop-a-dile. I then attached them together with a brad and layered it on a chipboard piece to look like a flower stem.
To make the other two embellishments, I layered strips of the tape on cardstock and then punched out a circle and a scalloped circle. I layered a glittered chipboard piece on one of them and poked another brad through the other.
Supplies-All Products are from Pink Paislee, Hole Punch-We R Memory Keepers Crop-a-Dile, Adhesive-Glue Dots
I hope you take these techniques and run with them! Have fun with tape and let me know if you make anything using them, I'm always on the lookout for new ways to play with this fun stuff!
Love this! Terrific LO!
