Washi Thanks!

I just saw Moxie Fab World's Card Creations challenge - Washi Tape! I did submit two cards for publication in the Washi Tape category, one of them blogged here. This is a negative of the 'Thank You' card that was blogged here. This was also another publication reject. For every publication acceptance I receive, there are at least 2 or 3 rejects! I'm also submitting this card into the Simon Says Stamp Anything Goes Challenge. Anyway here is my card! Thanks for all the lovely comments on my blog!
Additional Notes:
I've decided to also submit this card to MFW's Card Creations Challenge - The Emphasize The Negative Challenge (announced the next day after I posted).

Alright, have I told you about my Washi tape addiction... Here's another card which was a publication submission reject. The card was dry embossed and also die cut. A word of advice, do the dry embossing last! This card is for the Simon Says Stamp Use Washi Tape challenge and the Moxie Fab World Make a Window challenge. Thanks for dropping by and also a big welcome to couple of new followers!

Washi Thank You

Some of my regular followers will know that I won $100 worth of MT wash tapes before Christmas with this card. I made a 'Thank You' card for Sam from Paperpoint who picked my winning card from the November washi tape contest on Facebook. This card was made with some of my winnings and some tapes already in my stash. Paperpoint is my favourite shop to visit in South Melbourne. I get all my card stock (they are now stocking Neenah Desert Storm) in A3 sheets and cut them down to size. They also have a great range of ribbons, card stock and patterned papers! I love going there!! CAS-ual Fridays have just announced their new challenge today - CAS Thank You card! The sister to this card (the negative) will be submitted for a magazine publication as I like it a lot! This card is also submitted for Simon Says Stamp's Use Washi Tape Challenge!

My card is below...

This is the stash I won from PaperPoint. I added a tape cutter to my collection. It came in handy during Christmas when I used it for place cards, last minute gift tags, etc. I can't wait to use some of the other tapes...

Ingredients:

Cardstock - Neenah Solar White

Tapes - MT 

Dies - MFT DieNamics alphabets

Others - Rhinestones and pearls from Kaisercraft
