silly kid antics and Queen & Company Designer Tapes

Hi!

I hope you had a good weekend.

Today I have a quick page to share using some of the new-ish Designer Tapes from Queen and Company.

I used a piece of Studio Calico paper as my background and then created some Instagram frames using tapes and some metal dies from Lifestyle Crafts. The hearts and banners are also cut using Queen tapes and the stars are a mix of tape, cork (from Lifestyle Crafts) and some gold glitter cardstock from Core'dinations. The green foam alphas are American Crafts Thickers. The chipboard camera is by Maggie Holmes for Crate Paper and the heart journal spot is an old one from Jenni Bowlin.

I love dipping into my stash!

What have you created with washi tape?

I'd love to see so link me up!

gold washi tape from Queen and Company

Gold has hit the big time in the scrapbooking world and Queen and Company has joined the trend with these three new Trendy Tapes.

I got my tapes from the Noel Mignon online store where you can find a variety of the new Queen & Co. tapes.

I added the tapes alternating styles in a diagonal line, then added the "hello" which I cut using my Silhouette Cameo. I also added some gold Twinkle stars to finish off this quick and easy card. 

What do you think of the metallic trend? 

Do you have a favorite? 

Have you used them in your scrapbooking?

Lifestyle Crafts Heart punches and a giveaway

I must have Valentine's Day cards on the brain or something!

I sure have created a lot of them for assignments lately.

For my Lifestyle Crafts February post I decided to create a couple of cards as well using the heart punches.

I really like the LC punches because they allow you to cut out so many shapes very quickly.

For these cards I used:

Lifestyle Crafts heart punches
Lifestyle Crafts Pocket Scrap Starter dies
We R Memory Keepers Inked Rose 6x6 pad
We R Memory Keepers red washi tape
We R Memory Keepers Gold Metallic Chevron Washi Tape
Sticky Thumb adhesive

I wanted to make a card base with rounded edges so I started off by using the largest of the rounded corner dies in the Pocket Scrap Starter Dies kit, using washi tape to hold the die exactly where I wanted it on my paper. 

I then cut hearts with the small heart punch and Inked Rose 6x6 paper pad

For this card I added strips of the Gold Metallic Chevron washi tape and layered hearts on top with foam adhesive

I added a shorter piece of white cardstock to the already-cut gray base and then cut thin strips of patterned paper, then trimmed the edges and added them to the bottom of my card. I added a few staples, a couple of hearts and a stamped sentiment (Amy Tangerine roller stamp from American Crafts).
