Page INSPIRATION
I spent Saturday making some FUN pages for Valentine's Day.  Are you into washi tape?  I really like it, and it is simple to use.  Plus, you can use a lot or use a little.  Most rolls of tape can make dozens of cards.  Washi tape is also great for children to use as decorating on paper, projects, wood, etc.

Here are some inspiration pieces.
I pulled out items that I have been wanting to use for some time.  My goal was to use layers and different techniques on one page.

I used quite a few items on this layout.  

To make your own you will need:

Assorted washi/ Trendy Tape

Shimmer Spray

Bo Bunny's glitter paste and reusable stencils

Cut out hearts

Doily

Rhinestones/pearls/sequins

Stickers

Baker's Twine

Chipboard

I randomly sprayed some Tattered Angels Viva Pink shimmer spray on the base page.  After the spray dried, I spread the lovely silver glitter paste on the paper using a palette knife and the reusable stencil.  I then added layers of the washi tape.  Next I cut down my photo mattes and started to add some die cuts and other embellishments.  I have been wanting to try to incorporate a doily into my layout for some time, and I went for it.   I really like the different textures that were incorporated into the page.  The page is on display in the store stop and see it for yourself.

Page includes:

Washi/Trendy Tape

Baker's Twine

Chipboard letters

Bo Bunny Glitter paste

Bo Bunny reusable stencils

Doily

Glitter paper

Tattered Angels Shimmer Spray

Glitter pen for faux stitching on the black base page

On this layout, I edged only parts of the white page.  I used red ink here and there to make the white pop a little bit from the black base page.  I really like the appearance of the random ink edging.  

How do you use washi, we want to know!  Share your craftiness below.
