613 Avenue Create February 2020-Option Banners & Bows

Hi, there!  Well, we're into the second month of 2020 - time flies, doesn't it?  Our brand new challenge at 613 Avenue Create has the option of Banners and Bows.  Sounds fun, doesn't it.?  I decided to make my banners from Washi tape.  I don't have a lot, but what I have, I've had in my stash for literally years.  I discovered that several rolls are virtually useless because the tape sticks to itself and can't be unrolled without ripping.  I presume the glue has degraded.  What a disappointment.  Anyhoo, I decided to use some of what still works.


I used three different rolls of Washi to make the banners.  I added a handmade flower (which was actually made by a friend of mine), and used a punch to make the small bow which I attached to the center of the flower.  I didn't add a sentiment so I can later choose one.  (I call this a Whatever card for now.)

What do you think?  I think it was quick and easy, and I like it.

Join us and share your project.  And you'll want to see our January winners.  Happy Crafting?

    I love your card Sheila! What a great idea of making banners using your washi tape. Yes, I have washi that is years old too and doesn't "work" well anymore for the reason you said. It is disappointing for sure. But like you I think the glue has broken down. Oh well. Anyway, I love the flower your friend made, it works perfectly on your card, and I love the little added bow. Well done my friend! Hugs, Brenda

      You are so sweet, Brenda. I'm trying to use my stash, but things have a way of going unused. It's a real disappointment to discover craft supplies have "gone bad." Thanks for your uplifting comments. Hugs to you!
