SDC 278 Use Some Kind Of Tape

Or, as I like to call them, WASHI TAPE WONDERS! Seriously. I have half a dresser drawer of washi tape that doesn't get used nearly enough anymore. SOOO, I am in love with this challenge. Did you know we also had a new release this month over at Stampotique? This has to be one of my FAVE releases. So many wonderful pieces of art to play with!

It is a bit more busy than anticipated but it is sooo sweet so how can you be upset, right? I used 4 different kinds of washi tape and then stamped our new hastag stamps over a stenciled background.This new little angel girl is also one of our latest release stamps. I colored her with soft colored pencils. Wanted it to be soft and sweet, just like the image. 
I really hope the recipient of this envelope is happy. It is to make her happy. I love having a few pen pals now. Pen pals are awesome! Annnnnd having a pen pal gives you a reason to create MAIL ART!!! See how that works together? ;)

Please make sure to check out the other design team members for their wonderful creations and break out some Washi tape of your own!! We want to see how creative you can be! Happy taping!

Favorite Stamp SDC265

Hidey Ho, Neighbor! 10 points if you know what that's from.... Spoiler alert, its Home Improvement.
Yeah, I am old.....friggen 1990s called haha.

Alright, alright. Back to the important things. This week we are working on using our favorite stamps of ALL TIME! So, about a year ago I discovered this amazing stamp company and was lucky enough to make my way onto the design team about 6 months later. Before that I had a very SMALL stash of these beautiful works of art, like....3. SO. I used them a LOT in many different ways. Now I have a rather beautifully large stash of these wonderful stamps but my favorite is still this one. "Smitten Moustashe Monsters".
I went simple this time on purpose. I really wanted the point of the project to be my fave Stampotique stamp. Even went old school with inked and distressed edges. Something I have never really done is stamp and color on kraft stock. I used crayola colored pencils. Love how these little love monsters turned out. I hope they make you smile!

We can't wait to see what you come up with for this challenge and I really can't wait to see what each of your favorite stamps are!
