Intro Post

You know what I have a lot of? Washi tape.

Washi Tape Bin

I love it. I collect it. But I don't always use it. Until today.  I found a great way to use tons of washi tape: thank you cards!

Thank You Cards

In essentials:

  1. 1. I added strips of washi tape to pieces of cardstock.

  2. 2. I used my ScanNCut to cut out the phrase "thank you" from the washi taped cardstock.

  3. 3. Because the ScanNCut cleanly cuts out both the positive and the negative, I was able to use every last bit of the washi taped cardstock! On some cards I used the positive. On some cards I used the negative. On some cards I used both.

Positive:

Cut Out Letters

Negative:

Negative Cut Out

Both:

Combined Media

This idea would work for other phrases and for shapes.  And here's a pro tip: If your washi isn't that sticky, try coating the top of the wash-ied cardstock with gel medium.

I hope you’ll give this project a try!
