Love You by Jeanne Streiff

Hi there!

Jeanne here today with a fun card using 1/4" red and 1/4" white decorative tapes from Hobby Tape.

I stamped my images (WP704 Daisies & Hearts - Impression Obsession ) and then I used the grid on my Mini MISTI (My Sweet Petunia) stamp positioning tool to lay out my tape in straight lines.  

Here's another look.

Have a great day!

Classy but Festive

Lydia here today! I made card sets for some people for Christmas, and I wanted the sort of bright and festive birthday cards to also look classy and grown-up. The thing I love about the metallic tapes is that I can get the look of foiling without digging out my laminator and all those foiling supplies! So after I stenciled my cards with stencil brushes, I added a strip of the 1/8" gold tape and voila! A classy AND fun card.

This card was part of some card sets that contained four Birthday cards, four sympathy cards and four thank you cards - I figured those are the most used cards. They loved them. You can see the other cards and how I packaged them at this blog post. 

Hello Beautiful by Giovana Smith

Hello everyone! Hope you all have a great Christmas/Holiday season, I relaxed and didn't do as much as I wanted, but it OK, sometimes you need to slow down.

So today, I have an elegant card for you, the steps are very simple and easy. " This card is a 6" x 6" square.

Step 1: Gather all your materials together, I ended up using 1/4" gold metallic and 1/8" white.

Step 2: Cut a piece of patterned  paper, this one is 2" x 5.25", then apply the 1/8" Gold Metallic Tape every 1/4" (as seen in picture)

Step 3: Now add the 1/8" White Crepe Tape in between gold tapes.

Step 4: Add piece to  5.25" x 5.25" patterned paper.

Step 5: Add a piece of 1/4" Gold Metallic Tape to die-cut border panel.

Step 6: Add sentiment a heart, Add embellishments.

Here is the final look. Love the color combo and the gold and white tape really add an extra elegant touch.

Hope you like it!

Have a fantastic day!!

DRESSING UP JANUARY!

Happy New Year! 

Karen here with a calendar panel thats easy! 

I used some cute left over scraps and made the bg. 

Instead of making strips of paper for the layers I've used Rainbow Tape! The Metallic Purple 1/8" and Silver 1/32" gives it just a little shimmer! I love how easy the White Crepe Tape is to color with Copics. This is a great way to insure that your elements match perfect with your colored images. 

Speaking of images...How adorable are these from IO!

Here is a closer look at the Rainbow Tape. 

 Thanks for Looking!

Define the edges with Rainbow Tape!

Jenny here today!

 I thought I'd share an easy butterfly card with you.
Black, White and Bold color always make a good combo for any card.
Rainbow Tape extras give it a little extra oomph!

I used Copics to color the image. And then I framed it with rectangle die cuts. I added Rainbow Tape to the frames.. black and white. It gives it just a little bit of extra POP and defines the edge! I used the 1/16" widths for both cards.

Perfect Finishing Touches

Hi - Lydia here.

When I've spent tons of time on a beautiful, handmade card, the last thing I want to do is put it in a boring envelope for its trip to a friend. Since I don't have the gift of beautiful lettering, I have to embellish my envelopes another way.

My signature color is blue, and so I bought these gorgeous Audrey Blue envelopes and jazzed them up with metallic tape for cards during the month of December to add some holiday sparkle. My favorite is the 1/16th silver to go with the blue - but the wider taps are nice on the edges and on the flaps as well. It makes an ordinary envelope look very high end. You can also create a metallic box for the address portion of the envelope.

It's a simple, quick touch, but it adds a lot of elegance to your envelopes.

One tip on placement - use grid paper under your envelope to ensure straight lines. 

What I love most about by Giovana Smith

Hello friends!! Giovana here today with a coffee & Christmas card, perfect to just add a gift card form your favorite coffee shop and you are done!!

For this project I used a leftover piece from this card, I used the 1/32" Silver Metallic Tape, added to top and bottom.

I added a snowflake-like clear background , I also added the 1/32" Silver Metallic Tape to the edge of the Merry Christmas paper. Stamped the coffee sentiment on a piece of vellum  and then added a couple of coffee wood veneer cups. Super cute!!

 

 Hope you like it!

Tinsel Trees by Karen Amidon

Hello! Karen here back with another fun way to dress up those Christmas cards using Rainbow Tape!

Today I am showing another way to use your Rainbow Tape. Here I have used the Christmas Tree Cutout Die from Impression Obsession and also I made a tree from three triangles!

For this layer, I have used the 1/32" and the 1/8"  Silver Metallic Rainbow Tape to make the decorative lines. 

Using the 1/32" Silver Metallic Rainbow Tape, I have crisscrossed the tape to decorate the trees. I cut this layer with the Nesting Frame 7 die. Next, I embossed the layer with TE Snowfall embossing folder. I added Silver Metallic tape along the bottom of the three triangles. The third tree was popped up in front of these two. I went back over the snowfall embossing and highlighted the dots with glitter.

Thanks for looking!

Tangled Tinsel by Karen Amidon

Looks like this kitty has gotten tangled in the tinsel!

Who knew the Silver Metallic Rainbow Tape would be ideal for creating tinsel! I had fun tangling the teeny tiny 1/32" tape around this adorable kitty! 

On the inside of the card I repeated the 1/32" Silver Metallic tape for my tinsel.

The top and bottom of the die cut are trimmed with the 1/8" silver metallic tape. love that shine!

Rainbow Tape comes in several different colors and sizes. To see more designs using their tapes you can visit the DT Blog here.
