Washi Week: Tuesday.

For today's Washi Tape Week projects I wanted to share you with you some paper crafting project ideas.

Washi Tape is easy to add to any paper crafting project and is great because you can find it in so many styles and colors - making it very easy to match whatever project you are working on.

A couple of projects Melissa created using Washi Tape on paper include:

A cute "Hi." card:

 

Oh Happy Day Layout:

And this Best Day Ever Layout where Melissa created these awesome scallop circle embellishments using Washi Tape and Enamel Dots:

Product Feature: Simple Stories - I *Heart* Summer line

One of my favorite new lines in our Paper Crafts department is the Simple Stories: I Heart Summer paper line. I love the patterns, the colors, and as always with Simple Stories the coordinating stickers and divided pattern papers are so great too!

Here are a few of the fun projects we have created with the line so far: 

A couple layouts and a card: 

A "Hello Summer" hanging sign:

A fun "Summer Memories" desk plate:

And a decorated collage frame using the line:

Layout Ideas: Bo Bunny, My Mind's Eye & American Crafts.

Sometimes I feel like new paper lines can't get here fast enough....but lately I feel like there are so many great new lines that it is hard to keep up! We have been busy creating a lot of new layout ideas and project samples (watch for them soon!) with all of the new summer lines.

If you want to keep up on all the new lines that we get in store be sure to follow us on Facebook as we post all the new lines as we get them in HERE.
