Using Washi Tapes 3 Ways on 1 Layout

Hey there, friends!  Missy here with you today to share a page I created using some of my fun LMT washi tapes.  I've been wanting to scrap these photos of my little one on her 2nd Birthday.  I found an Imaginisce birthday party paper pack on clearance at Hobby Lobby a LONG time ago and had never used it.  So, I pulled it out and went to work.  I didn't have any embellishments that coordinated with these papers, so I relied on washi tapes, stamps, buttons, and fussy cutting from patterned papers.

I decided to use my washi tapes three different ways on this one page:

1.  To help build my corner clusters.  I also used some old ribbon, an arrow stamp, a button with a bow and a few elements that I cut from patterned paper.

2.  As actual tape...you can see where I "taped" some of the photo edges.

3.  As a border...at the bottom of the big brown piece of paper housing my photos, I used the red & white stripes and the yellow stars as big strips to bring in more color.

You can see more of the tape underneath my little pop-dotted piece here.

I just love how washi tape an add so much to a layout, and all you need it just a little bit of it.  I don't know how long I scrapped without it!  I hope this inspires you to get your hands on some and start taping!

Have a wonderful day, friends!
