Do you use your Washi Tape? Today I made a fun background and it was not just with Washi….
Did you know that this post is part of a Hop celebrating a new release from Altenew so you should have arrived here from ERIN’s wonderful Blog.
And it’s another gorgeous Build-A-Flower release from Altenew and this one is the Queen of the Lilies!
I decided to create a fun Sweet Dreams striped Washi tape background. But then I took it to the next level by adding some dimension with a 3D Window Slats Embossing Folder.
I added a simple sentiment from the Simple Greetings Die Set. As well as some Cool Summer Night Enamel Dots.

Omg, so fabulous! I love the retro feel here, and everything about this card.
The blue washi tapes make the yellow and green of the lily really pop– what an easy way to make a background! I never thought to use washi tape in this way– Thank you for the idea!
Embossing the washi made all the difference!! Dramatic contrast and it is gorgeous.
I love the embossed washi on the background- great idea and so pretty!
Looks great
Great background idea and the contrast with the flower works so well.
Next-level embossing, for sure, Therese! Such a brilliant design idea! Very pretty lily!

Washi never was one of my things but it sure makes a great background for your lily, Therese.
Beautiful card! I love the background.
Great card! Your background really makes the flower POP!
Beautiful! I love that gorgeous lily and I love that background. I have the Window Slats embossing folder and I use it often, but I there thought of apply washi before embossing — I’ll be trying that soon!
That lovely lily really pops on your pretty blue background. Love how you created that!
