Hello friends!
Yay, it's the Altenew release of Washi Tape and Embossing Paste!
I am super excited to share my project with you.
If you've arrived from Ashlea Cornell 's blog, you are in the right place! For
all the details about this blog hop, please visit Altenew Card Blog and/or Altenew Scrapbook Blog.
For my project, I started out by applying the Botanical Rhapsody Washi Tape onto a piece of Altenew Parchment Card Stock. This Washi Tape is SO beautiful that it can be used on its own.
Coloring Washi Tape with Altenew Artist Markers Set D and Set E worked like a dream!
Since Washi Tape is non-porous, it will not absorb the artist markers ink.
👉👉👉However, if you wipe/buff it off with a dry paper towel ( I just used my fingers!) it will leave a faint color! 💡 I colored part of the images with 2 shades of markers.
The more you repeat this process, the more intense the colors will become.
Imagine how you can incorporate this Washi Tape into your project with any colors!
I wish I could say that I came up with the brilliant idea of using the Geo Frame Die. But in reality, I made a boo-boo while coloring and there was no way I could wipe it off.
Once the Artist Marker ink dries, it stays!
That's when I decided that I needed to cut out the error and used the Geo Frame for this job!
Yay, go me! 😁 I also applied a piece of Gold Trim Washi Tape with the Fancy Hello Die!
That little bit of gold really made this card shine!
Of course, I could not resist using the embossing paste and stencils. I took out Halftone Stencil and applied the new white embossing paste. A note about the paste: it came in the BIGGEST jar of paste that I have ever seen. It was soft and spreadable like butter! Stay tuned for my upcoming post on using the new paste!

Beautiful card!
Brillant and beautiful!
Gorgeous card. I love the beautiful washi tape, and it completely makes this card!
Beautiful card and I love how you turned an oops into a masterpiece. I do love that you can color on the washi tape so I just may have to invest in some of that! Thanks for sharing
I cannot put into words how much I love this card. You have shared a truly beautiful work of art. Thank you so much.
So beautiful
I love washi tapes! I seem to can't get enough. I don't have the wide ones yet. Love the effect of the washi tape on parchment paper. Made me think that the washi tape is kraft in color.
What a beautiful accident!❤❤
Virginia, this card is fabulous. Mistakes are just opportunities to be creative and you certainly were! Such an inventive correction and you would never guess it was not what you had planned all along. I also love the addition of embossing paste. Everything about this project is perfect.
I love how you colored this Washi tape and created this stunning card. Thank for the tips!
Those inks look so pretty on the parchment paper! And very clever how you glammed up the Hello!
Love how you colored the washi tape for your pretty card!
Such a beautiful card!! :)
Love the foil look
Amazing how you were able to tint the washi. It looks rich, and dramatic. I love the window you created...talk about making lemonade when life gives you lemons...this really works for this card and makes the sentiment pop.
I love the muted color effect that you got using the Artist Markers. The bit of gold on the fancy hello die cut adds such a touch of class! You are very skilled at making card mistakes into great cards. I have my pile of ink blotches on card fronts that I can't figure out how to resurrect!
Beautiful card! The use of gold trim on the sentiment is a pretty clever addition!!
Beautiful card! I love the way you used the washi tape and you colored it so nicely!
Beautiful card. There was no write up about the background colour so I thought I would read the comments to see if I could figure it out. So many smart women out there! You tinted it! LOL! Love the softness of this card.
I was expecting that washi to be much more opaque than it is. That opens up all sorts of new ideas of how to use it!
Wow - stunning. Thanks for that great tip on how to give that incredible soft tint of colour!
This is beautiful! :)
Simply stunning work highlighting these products!
Wow! What a statement by putting the tape on the kraft cardstock, you created a completely different look. I love it!
Love your soft coloring, Virginia. I am sure I am going to have to experiment with coloring on this washi, but what fun it will be! And this roll is so versatile---I can make it my own. I think the 'mistake' turned out great---love that geo frame! And I had to search for the gold tape, but I found it! Thanks for your ever-inspiring work!
Beautiful card. I love the look of the parchment cardstock under the Washi tape
Absolutely beautiful card. Great job!
Gorgeous work! So creative use of washi tape.
Looks awesome and
love the coloring
on the washi tape!

Oh wow--so gorgeous, Virginia! I really love the bit of gold on the sentiment!
Your use of the washi tape is very pretty, and the gold "hello" is very lovely!
I love how you used a kraft colored card stock to attache the washi tape which gave it more of an antique background. Thanks for sharing!
It turned out so beautifully. So clever to tint the Washi, it has added personality. :)
Beautiful card design.
I love your card but I wish you had a vlog. Much easier to see how you achieved your wonderful results. If you have a vlog and I couldn't find it, could you please link it for me. thx.
Gorgeous! I love how you did the hello!
Such a gorgeous card, I love all the washi tape and this one looks amazing on the parchment color and that embossing paste looks sooooo easy to use! Looking forward to seeing what else lovely goodness you create, thanks for the inspiration.
Lovely card. Thanks for sharing your work,
Lovely card! Thanks for the chance to win.

Beautiful card!!! I love the way you turned the boo boo into this great piece, brilliant idea! I also love that this washi tape can be colored and give different beautiful looks!
Dear Virginia

Beautiful!! Great save with the die cut out of the center; it looks like a cool design element to me! : ) Love the strip of gold on the sentiment die cut; it finishes everything off perfectly!
I love the washi on the colored card stock. What a beautiful card.
Yep you are a genius Virginia, if I didn't know it already I do now lol. Your card is beautiful, the soft coloring from the markers is gorgeous and I would have never know you had to cover an oops (btw thanks for sharing that with us :)). As always, so much inspiration - I love it! (mardy14@bellsouth.net)
I love the new washi tapes, they are gorgeous! I absolutely adore how the translucent quality of the tape allows for the color behind to peek. your coloring is fantastic and your card's overall design is mesmerizing. Thanks for sharing Virginia!
Wow! Beautiful card. Love the way you have coloured the washi tape. I didn't know that was possible.
I really like the color combination. The hello is cool. what paper did you cut it out with?
Beautiful card! I love your hints of color and all the little details you added. That washi is so pretty!
