NEW Video: Washi Tape Circle Tutorial

If you love washi tape, raise your hand! In today's blog post, I am sharing my NEW YouTube tutorial video on how to make a washi tape circle background. Link Here This video features a look at the supplies I used, a tutorial and the cute story behind our picture.

I saw this fun circle sketch on the "Sketchy Saturday" June 6th challenge over at Two Peas Refugees and had to try it. The sketch used a circle as the background. With all the washi tape I have now, I decided to make my circle with various patterns and colors of tape. It turned out so pretty and that's when I thought this would make a fun tutorial video.

Take a look! Supply list is in the description box of the video.

Here are a few more pictures of this resourceful project.

Circle made with Heidi Swapp & Jen Hadfield washi tapes.

Loved adding brown ink to edges and crinkling up the flowers for some texture.

I distressed the edge of the circle to create dimension.

Love the ticket!!!!

Flowers and ticket are from Simple Stories "Simple Vintage Garden District" Collection.

Both pages have their own look and feel. The one on the left was my original layout.

Have you ever used washi tape to make a background on your pages? Give it a try!

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and inspired to use your tape in some new and different ways.

Our Romantic Anniversary Dinner

Happy Thursday! I hope your week has been great. Today I wanted to share some of our wedding anniversary pictures with you. Last Sunday, my hubby arranged for us to have a romantic dinner at the very place where we had our wedding reception. I was so excited when I found out that they set up a table for us to have the whole banquet room to ourselves. How great was that??? The restaurant is right on the bay and has the most spectacular views. So when we arrived they had a table set up for us right by the windows so we could get an even better view. They had the rest of the room set up for an event but I still could remember how it looked the night of our wedding with the lights and the dance floor. Plus the left side of the room is nothing but windows so you can see more of this secluded bay. So as we dined we watched the sunset and it was so fabulous. Even at night all the lights from the surroundin...

Happy Hearts

Today I will be sharing one a several painting I recently finished. This one is one of my favorites. I wanted to try two faces and just love how they turned out. It was fun going crazy with the multi-colored background. The hearts were made using my new favorite thing to make from toilet paper rolls- STAMPS. I saw them on Julie Balzer's blog. Toilet Paper Tube Stamps Then I used my fingers to paint the inside of the hearts. So neat! Take a look and I hope you feel the love and joy in this piece. Aren't the afro's fabulous!!! LOL! They were my first try and look pretty darn good. The little girls afro puff is so cute and reminds me of the ones I had as a child. I love the hearts on their clothes. I used my stencil to make the design then painted around just to show the insides. Hope you enjoyed and come back this week to see some other paintings. Have a good one!

Cupcakes Anyone?

Happy Fall! Last Summer I took a cupcake decorating class at Michael's and I loved it. It was really great to learn the basics. This was all new to me and I was excited to try it out. All Summer I wanted to make more but the weather got too hot to bake so I had to wait. Finally we had a break with some cooler temps and I was able to get back to these yummy treats. I made two of my favorite colors: happy sunny yellow and hot pink. Oh, and they tasted good too. Have you tried cupcake or cake decorating before? Isn't it like art? Maybe that is why I love it. Now I can't wait to make some more. Thanks for stopping by!
