Simple Washi

Hello!  Today I wanted to share the last set of notecards that I made for the silent auction, fundraiser at my daughter’s school.   I tried to keep them CAS and I wanted to use some of my washi tape stash.

 

2012-09 Washi Notecard single WM

 

Here is a look at the entire set.   Since they are all pretty much the same except for the sentiment, I’ll save you a photo heavy post.

I"m always amazed when I see card makers use washi tape. I'm clueless on how to pick out patterns that would work well together. I love these cards! The combination is perfect. Another beautiful set Cheryl! Hugs!
