This week the 10 Things team at Practical Scrappers is exploring fun ways to use Washi Tape. Since I've got Disney on the brain with my upcoming trip to CTMH Convention in Orlando, I created a cute Disney card using washi tape from Queen and Co. combined with my fav chevron pattern from For Always. The Mickey "balloons" are clear beads that I bought on eBay.The ruffles were really fun and interesting to make. I cut lengths of rubber band and sandwiched it between two lengths of the Washi Tape. Try to keep the rubber band stretched while sticking the washi tape together - I did this by taping one side to my table while I stretched with one hand and placed the washi with the other...a second pair of hands would've been handy! Once I'd made my five lengths of ruffles I wrapped white cardstock with the flat washi tape, then adhered the ruffles I'd made down the seam lines. Can you see the texture of the ruffles here? Love it! I actually had to pop up the chevron paper to allow for the texture of the ruffles. I based my card on this week's adorable sketch from RetroSketches. So many cute cards out there!Dont' forget to pop over and see what the rest of the team did with their washi!

I’m excited to help my friend Kaitlin Shaeffer (you might know her from Ormolu) celebrate the launch of her new line Hello Again for Carta Bella. I’ve been a longtime fan of Kaitlin’s designs at Ormolu and the successful small business she developed along the way. Here’s a peek at the collection: Introducing a hip, urban collection filled with trendy details and soft, water colored images. The “Hello Again” collection offers both vintage styling along with in-the-now prints and patterns. Perfect for projects and layouts that focus on day-to-day memories, friendships, and everything that makes you happy, this fresh collection is sure to be one of your favorites. Dress up your favorite projects with this luxe collection. Check out Kaitlin’s blog for more details. Last night as I was checking my email I came across an announcement from Get It Scrapped about a cool new self-paced workshop she’s starting called Story Coach. It looks like very cool, detailed story-writing content and a place to collect those stories in process. I included the video above where she walks you through what you’ll get in this first in a series self-paced workshop. More details and registration available here.

...sounds pretty deep and meaningful doesn't it? Actually, I decided to call this piece by that name because it makes me sound like an artist (well, one can always have aspirations...) I actually do just see myself as a crafter... an artist can do drawing and stuff, whereas, if I attempt to draw anything, it looks like a 5 year old has done it... well, apart from elephants, I do draw a good elephant.... Anyways... another demo piece from the other weekend... I have no other stuff to show you at the moment... basically because the Room of Stash is STILL a pit. I know, I keep saying I shall be tidying it... and I have done the sum total of nowt at all.I do have goodly excuses though... well, food needed cooking... and washing needed doing... and bins needed emptying... and shopping needed to be got... oh and then there's the small issue of the old war wound which, has again, flared up. I am calculating it it about 3 weeks between "crisis points" Which is NOT good. But, hey ho, it happens and I will get used to this degeneration and then it will be bearable for a while... and then it starts again. Anyways... I am going to "gently" do the Room of Stash today... no lifting and stretching, just removing boxes from the floor and putting away stash... and then, I may just get a chance to play with the Susan's Garden dies that Grim got me for my birthday! That is my reward ;o)) I shall away now... as ever, thanks for looking... hope you having a great day! TTFNHels x
