Muse #5


Hi friends!  I am sharing my card for Muse #5.  I was totally inspired by Marion's use of washi tape to create her background and since I have a limited supply of washi tape, only green and red, I was inspired to make another Christmas card.  :)

I love Marion's colorful, textured washi.  Such a fun card.  Thank you for the inspiration Marion.

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

Cardstock:  Whisper White, Early Espresso
Ink:  Early Espresso
Stamps:  More Merry Messages
Accessories:  Washi tape, Rhinestones

  1. This is awesome Kristie! I love your take on the Muse card! I'm slowly making my way into using washi tape, you did an awesome job with it here. I haven't quite found my groove with it just yet.

  3. I never know what to do with my washi (though I keep buying it), but I just have to try this! What an awesome mix of patterns, and the thin black mat really frames it perfectly.

  5. I've resisted buying washi tape but after seeing a number of cards inspired by the Muse challenge, I just may have to break down. Your Christmas one turned out great.

  15. You can never have too many Christmas cards! I love the way you've used washi tape exclusively to create your background. Adhering it on an angle really adds interest, too! Love it!

  19. OK, your card is the first time I've seen washi tape used where I actually LIKE it! I was given some at Christmas and figured I'd give it away, but now I'm inspired to try it! Love how you've put yours on the diagonal - gives the card so much more energy!
