*** I'm having issues with Blogger and my laptop. My apologies for the strange formatting. ***
Welcome!!! I'm hopping along with DeNami Design's January Blog Hop today and if you've been hopping along with us from the start, you should have come here from the blog of the ever so talented Paulina Nakamura. If you've happened across my blog and would like to start at the beginning, please visit the DeNami Design blog for a list of participants. I think you'll want to start at the begining though. There is awesome inspiration and FABULOUS prizes to be won!
You have until January 14, 2013, 11:59 pm PST, to leave comments on all participating cblogs to be eligible for a prize. There are THREE $20 gift certificates to their website! One gift certificate will go to a random participant and TWO gift certificates will go to TWO people who comment along the hop!
My first card uses fabric tapes. I know it's not washi tape, but it's tape and I wanna use it in this design. LOL!
I taped strips of fabric tape to printer paper then stamped J77 Large Daisy Blossom and G83 Small Brushed Leaf using Brilliance ink (works great on porous surfaces). N134 Teeny Heart Background was stamped with VersaFine ink to dress up the kraft card base. A window was die cut in the card front and a piece of acetate card stock stamped with G113 Small Birthday Blessings using StazOn ink was adhered on the inside.

Second up is another birthday card using this month's sketch from Artful Delight. The card base was stamped with J16 Small Splatter and E112 Small Starburst. CL-F216 Happy Birthday Script was stamped on the largest patterned circle. I used gold washi tape to anchor the bottom star.
My final card uses washi tape as an adhesive. J65 Camera (a must-have image!) was stamped on acetate card stock with StazOn ink. It was fussy cut and adhered with small pieces of WT401 Pink Stripes and WT402 Black Stripes washi tapes. A single word from CL-F225 Sending Smiles was selectively inked and stamped on a vellum tag and tied to the camera with a piece of twine from the TW001 Confetti 3-pak.
That's it for me, but before you head off to visit with the fabulous Wendy Elliott make sure to leave a comment to improve your chances of winning a prize. The awesome spring release just launched and a gift certificate would make shopping SO much more fun! ;)

Gorgeous cards! Really love how the flowers pop on the first card! TFS! ;)
Very creative use of the tape! Thanks for the inspiration!
Such great ideas, thanks for sharing them!
Three terrific cards, all great waye to use washi tape, but the first with the bold fabric tapes show how well they can be disguised for a wonderful look.
All great projects today.
Yowzers! You have been incredibly busy with amazing results! I love all the washi tape. I actually bought my first roll today (and have more coming in the mail). You have got me so excited to start working wonders with this stuff....just like you have!
Your idea to use the tape to adhere the transparent panel is the perfect solution of attaching the medium in an appealing way!
fantastic cards girlfriend :)
love the cutout on the first one!!
so glad you joined us on Artful Delight this month :)
Great job! I really like the fabric tape. It's got a nice texture to it. Love the acetate camera and the gold washi tape. Great job!
So creative! Love your cards, especially the first one! We were on the same page as far as the daisy stamps go!
Super Cute! I love what you did with the Washi Tape! Thanks so much for sharing your great creations!

Love the action on that HB2U card! And that camera image is fabulous - so clever to stamp it on acetate.
Great job!! Although those flowers are fabric and not washi tape, they are beautiful!!
What an adorable gingham flower card! The colors, the fabric, the paper...all so cute! Thanks for participating in the Sweet Stampin' Challenge! --Gail
These are all fabulous Barb, I love those bright blooms, and the fun camera!
You went all out with washi tape, Barb! I loved seeing all of your colorful and creative creations. That fabric tape rocks!
WOWZERS!!! You've been a busy crafting bee, Barb!!! All three of these cards are FANTASTIC! I especially LOVE the homespun feel of those fabric tape covered flowers and the way they POP against the kraft background in the first card!!! And all of the details and layers in the second card are AWESOME!!!
I am in love with your frame card! SO cute!
