First Class Mail

Good day Love My Tapes fans! Kathy Martin here with  a Pin-spiring project share for you today! What would we all do without the endless inspiration of Pinterest? Whether you're planning a party, looking for a recipe to spice up dinner or need some ideas for using your stash of washi, Pinterest is at our fingertips.


This gorgeous and colorful 'Hello Sunshine' card was created by one of my favorite paper craft artists, Susan Weinroth and I couldn't resist lifting the design for the following Valentine.





Although I used the same design, my project has a completely different feel. I created it to look like a package, the kind I remember getting from my grandmother when people wrapped parcels in twine. Do you remember that?

Thanks for your visit! Wishing you a wonderfully Pinspiring weekend with your washi! :)

  1. Great take on Susan's card, Kathy!! I love the use of the multiple airmail tapes, great stitching on the heart, and I LOVE the overlapping piece of notebook punched paper along the edge!!

  2. Your card has such a fun package design! From the kraft paper, to the airmail washi to the cancellation and hemp wrapped around! What a fun idea! My favorite details include how you lined up all the diagonals and the sweet stitched heart! Both cards are fun ways to use washi! TFS!
