Hello Fabric Tape
Hello Love My Tapes peeps!
Kathy Martin here to start your week off on with a fabric tape card creation.
I love how simple it is to add fabric to a project with these self adhesive tapes. And I love combining natural elements like fabric, twine, wood and mother of pearl. Ooh la la...the texture it creates!
Hope you have a creative week!

Pinch Proof
Happy March everyone.. Annette Allen here with you today to start the month with a fun St. Patricks Day Card. I just got a Silhouette Cameo and as you can see having a great time with it. I used two cuts from Silhouette (Pinch Proof Sentiment and Shamrock Card) cuts. The thing I love most about Love My Tapes: Washi/Fabric Tapes is that you can add them to anything.
The Shamrock was cut out but I decided to use it by putting Love My Tapes Fabric Tape on it.
I popped the Shamrock and the sentiment from the card to make them shine.
On this card I used: Love My Tapes (Fabric Tape Value Pack) Cozy
Thanks for stopping by.
Have a washi tape day.

The Perfect Match...Chevrons & Washi!
Hi Love My Tapes readers! I'm back today with a new layout featuring some of my favorite Washi Tapes. You know, I just can't get enough of that Teal diagonal striped Washi Tape!! I thought it would be fun this week, to use my tapes to create some Chevrons for my layout...what a great way to combine two of your favorite things!!
To create the larger Chevron pieces, I used several of the tapes and placed them over White cardstock. Then I used my Cameo to cut out the Chevron shapes. I also added a few smaller Chevrons, with just the Washi Tape folded over itself, to create a triangle. Then I cut the triangle to a point in the center, to create the Chevron shape rather than a triangle shape. And I used one more strip of the Teal tape, to hold down the Vellum paper that I cut the fringe pattern on. It worked perfectly to secure the Vellum, without having to worry about any adhesive showing through the transparent Vellum!
It's always fun to find new ways to use your Washi Tapes and revisit some of your favorite past uses!!

February Guest Designer, Keri Babbitt - Part Two
Hello and Happy Monday Love My Tapes Friends!
Today, we are sharing Part Two with a special designer, Keri Babbitt, our February Guest Designer. She is back with 2 more projects that you will just LOVE.
I am in love with this card. It is such a perfect design and so wonderfully done. Let's hear what Keri has to say about it.
I decided to use the negative-space tape-title to create a sentiment for my card. The bold red heart tape layered perfectly under the polka-dot tape. I cut an arrow and ribbon-strip from the pink fabric tape, leaving on the paper-backing so it would keep it's shape on the sides of the card.
Keri's second card is so amazing. Here is what she has to say about it.
More diagonal tape strips here...love how the tapes have a totally different look when placed on dark cardstock. The fabric-tape rosette was really simple to create, just by pleating the tape back against itself as I wound it around a 1 1/2 punched paper circle.
Thank you again Keri for joining us this month. Please be sure to stop by Keri's blog and say Hi!

Pink & Red!
Have you seen this months Pink & Red challenge?? I thought I would play along too especially since pink is my favorite color. How's this for a little room decor!
I started with a simple $1.00 wood frame from my local craft store. I gave the frame a quick coat of white paint so the washi's with the white background would have a true white base. After the frame had completely dried, I picked some of my favorite pink and red washi tapes, and started layering!
I worked from the bottom edge of the frame to the top, and didn't worry about keeping the washi tapes in any particular order. I just rolled off a piece of tape and kept adding more and more. Originally I had planned to add a photo to the frame, but after I had it finished, I loved the look of just the washi covered frame.
This was such a quick and easy project to make and would be perfect to do with kids or as a party favor for guests to make and take home.
Thanks for stopping by today!

The Color of Love
Even though Valentine's Day has come and gone, I'm sure you have some great photos from the Holiday, that you are ready to get on a layout. And, if you're like me, when you think of Valentine's Day, you probably think of the colors Pink and Red! Well, that just happens to be our challenge this month at Love My Tapes. You can play along with us this month for the chance to win some awesome Love My Tapes goodies! If you missed the details of the challenge, check them out HERE.
Tina did a totally adorable layout, to start off this month's challenge and I had the chance to play along too. Here is what I came up with for the Pink and Red challenge:
I chose a light Pink background paper from one of my DCWV stacks and mixed in some Red heart patterned paper from Pebbles Inc. Then I started accenting with Pink and Red embellishments and pulled in some White, Black, and Gray to add a little contrast to my page. I used several of my Love My Tapes Washi's on this page, that were perfect with this color scheme. Can you spot them? I have the Pink Washi with the White doodle lines across two of my hearts, and it is also included as a border under my photo with the Pink & Red patterned Washi and the With Love Washi. And I added one more of the Washi Tapes, that fit in perfectly with this theme...the heart pattern at the bottom of my page.
So get out those Valentine's Day or loved theme photos and start working on your Pink and Red challenge entry! You have until February 28th, to link up HERE.
