Washi Tape Light Switch Covers

Did you know that Washi Tape isn't just for paper? There are so many other things you can decorate.

Today I'm decorating some light switch covers. For the first one I used Wide Flower Washi Tape.

It's easiest if you start by centering your first piece in the middle of the plate. I used my Tim Holtz Retractable Knife to trim the switch opening from the back and folding it back along the edges.

I overlapped each edge, and then folded around the back. I then attached small strips of packing tape to make sure the Washi stay attached to the back.

For the next one I used three different tapes - Green Owl Washi Tape, Foil Washi Tape - Green/ Gold Dots, Foil Washi Tape - Green/Gold Stripes.

Again, I started in the middle and worked my way up and down the plate, repeating the patterns.

With all of the Washi Tape varieties at Eyelet Outlet, the possibilities are endless.

Washi Tape Die Cuts

Now that I've taught you how to make Washi Tape backgrounds, you can have even more fun by die cutting those backgrounds into fun shapes.

I created three different Washi Tape Backgrounds and Die Cut them with the Sizzix Top Note Die Cut for three different looks.

For the first one I combined three different green Washi Tapes with some Bling Swirls for a fun birthday card for my Gran.

For the first card, I lined up the tape at an angle before die cutting and then added sticker sentiments and a fun Party Hat Brad on the head of the roundest owl for some birthday fun before attaching to a gold metallic card base.

This photo angle shoes you just how shimmery/reflective the gold in the washi tape is ... and how stinkin' cute is that owl in the party hat.

For this card, I combined Wide America Washi Tape with NYC Washi Tape attached horizontally using this week's TGIF Sketch.

The Flatback Resin Super Hero Shield was the perfect accent together with some sticker sentiments to celebrate my annual trek to NYC (can't wait to go again this year).

The final card combines Wide Bike Washi Tape with some girly flowers at another angle using this week's My Time to Craft Challenge Blog Sketch.

I accented with Glittery Enamel Dots and Sticker sentiments ... don't you just love those pretty bicycles.

Perfect Blend!

Yesterday Lauren shared a fabulous traditional Valentine's Day Card ... today I'm going for a bit more non-traditional.

I couldn't resist combining these two mint and gold Washi Tapes to create this fun background. The layout is from Freshly Made Sketches.

I added a row of Champagne Bling for a bit more sparkle. This picture gives you a better idea of how the gold in that Washi Tape shimmers ... it is gorgeous.

And aren't those two little coffee cup brads the perfect embellishment for my Taylored Expressions Joe to Go sentiment. I added two punched hearts and a single piece of champagne bling to finalize the decorations on my cups.
