washi fake out stamping trick

[@glad2bcrafting245]

I have not been a huge washi tape fan, mainly because it is repositionable and does not adhere well. This is a great idea for faking that look. Love it a lot. Thanks, Lindsay!

[@KendraLock]

Brilliant. Being a lifelong artist and maker - it takes a lot to impress me. So when I saw this video I knew I had found a true creative spirit. Very cool!

[@beverlymeaker7566]

This is the coolest technique ever!!!! I've not really gotten into the Washi tape trend, but "Faux Washi" is a completely different thing. I love it and can't wait to try it out, especially with some of my Holiday stamps!!!!!

[@pattiebye879]

okay, I am new to scrapping having recently retired. I am having a great time watching your tutorials. This one looks like a lot of fun!

[@chaiscraftyadventures]

Love this idea. Another thing you might can use for a template is pallet paper or frisket film if you have any in your stash.

[@leeannmckinney7068]

Seems like every time I am in Wal-Mart or Dollar Tree I pick up another roll of washi... now I will make my own... THANK YOU

[@Lauraisabelgonzalezart]

Well I gotta tell ya that for someone who cares nothing for washi I really liked the way this came out! This would look great on a crisp, white card....and I love the blues too. As usual, great tutorial!

[@427North]

I can't believe how realistic this technique is!

[@flowers218]

You are so so gifted . You come up with everything. We the crafting community really appreciate your talents. Thank you for all that you share.

[@mama2one1]

I have used paper medical or hair tape and stamped then tinted it when I want something different that no one else will have. I like this idea even better, thanks for sharing it with us!

[@deskjockie4948]

These are some of the prettiest washi tape 'fakes' I've seen, Lindsay! You knocked it out of the park this time. I think it's the dusting with a softer color that makes the difference. Of course, having a gazillion different patterned stamps to use helps, too, lol! TFS!

[@loststamper]

this is by far the best fake washi I've seen! your awesome finishing touch of doing the shadows on the ends is truly genius!! here's hoping/betting we'll soon see a finished card with these washi strips! thanks a bunch!

[@kcridiculous9775]

what a great idea saves you money and gives you a chance to be more creative instead of just buying what is presented in the stores.

[@01sarah29]

I'm just starting to come around to the washi tape usage. This looks pretty simple to do and I think I'll give it a try. Thank you for sharing your idea!

[@DoreenMarchetti-creativemonkey]

Love this!!! You just saved me from giving in and buying washi tape!!! What I love abou this is it can be done directly on projects or cut out and adhered to a project. I bet we can also use your method on paper tape or masking tape too. Stay warm up there in Maine :-)

[@kcastillo0319]

I really love this idea. Something I think I might try - you inspired me - would be to tear the edge of a piece of masking material or post-it for the torn edge; then mask the long edges with post-its or masking or painter's tape. Torn piece placed for the edge and the two clean pieces aligned at whatever width is needed, and then stamp and stipple inside, just as you are doing with your template. Love your creativity!! Thanks.

[@BlueBoxGirl1837]

This is a great technique. TFS. I am a washi tape junkie and will definitely use this technique with the over 100 stamps I have.

[@mzfierywoodsprite2511]

You are a genius! I won't buy wash tape because of the cost - this is brilliant! Love your tutorials - have used so many ideas and opens my existing stash of goodies in a whole new way!

[@estherferrara]

Great idea and sooo frugal too. Thank you. I have lots of stamps to play with. I like the idea that they will be unique and just about free.

[@LetzWrock]

Very cool. I'm always looking for new washi designs and colors. This is perfect

[@josfamilycreates]

I love this! I love your colors you chose. Thank you for sharing!

[@craftinterests]

Awesome idea... I shall incorporate the same to my journal. Thank you for sharing!

[@luvcreatincardsnkeepsakes]

Hi Lindsay,I watched your fab tutorial a couple of years ago and ❤️ loved it first time round.and had a lot of fun trying out your idea then. I have just been looking back through my 'watched' history and found this one again, so I am delighted because I had forgotten about it, so plan to have another playlater today. THANK YOU sooooo much for making your channel such a lovely, fun and inspiring place to visit. It is like popping round to visit and craft with a friend even though you live across the pond from me in France. Hope the sun is shinning and you have a great day.Warmest best wishes, Susanne AKA Luvcreatincards

[@mangelicalangs2011]

awesome tip dear thanks so much for all your tutorial i wonder where do you find time to do everything you do family, children, husband, craft, fairs and so on you are awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!happy new year

[@SunnyTangerine19]

Wow, I never would have thought of that! They really look great! Thanks for the creative idea :)

[@CraftAmundous]

So I could use freezer paper in place of that material you used, wax side up?

[@shaymarie7045]

That is some good looking washi tape! From here it looks like the real thing. Double thumbs up.

[@limerent72]

Another fantastic idea, but what I got most from this video is that I should really consider using color dusters, like you've featured so often in your videos. Maybe I'll see some at Goodwill. :)

[@drwoo6090]

Love this idea. Another way to use my stamps, and to make unique washi tape! Thank you 😊

[@candicesaravia6469]

I absolutely love this idea!! I recently got into stamping (mostly to use in my planner) and this is going to be a great addition to personalizing my pages. I can’t wait to make some beautiful, unique washi! I love your channel 😍 TFS!

[@2848Adriana]

Hi Lindsay. Thank you for a great video on the fake washi tape, And all the other frugal craft idea's, I just love your bright beautiful personality, Cheers Anna.

[@jessicabeare1866]

Lindsey...this is pure genius! Thanks! The cheap artist in me can't fathom paying for washi LOL...

[@functionoflight]

Said it before, I'll say it again... you're a friggin' genius!!! Love it!

[@thefrugalcrafter]

hahaha! thank you:)

[@chrissnyder4471]

I'm a newbie. Just to say thank you! Love your channel

[@suesfrogs69]

Soooooo KEEEWWEELLLL!!!! I'm gonna definitely do this!!! Way to go saving money and space by using what you have on hand!! LOVIN' IT!!!1

[@danaberi51]

I've made my own Washi using double sided tape and tissue paper. Never thot to do it this way. Looks real too. What a good idea! TFS

[@deberacarl7680]

HI LINDSAY What a fantastic idea so simple & cost saving, I have seen masking tape coloured & stamped but this is even better!!! Love the way you come up with easy fun Great ideas Tfs Debera :-)

[@DeeLightfulCo]

I'm so cheap.... this is FABULOUS. I have so many chintzy stamps this will be a great way to get some use out of them too. Great tutorial...dee

[@sherlockhoka]

Great ideas for washi tape. Never thought it would be so easy. I didn't know where you were going until you started stamping. I thought you were cutting out the washi tape. But you used the negative space as a stencil. Thank you.

[@Sophiastreetstudio]

Excellent idea to repurpose stamps and great for those of us without a washi hoard.

[@Yunalezcarh]

Such a clever idea. I look forward to trying this.

[@conniedoiron5111]

I am a subscriber have been for years and I think you are a genius wow this is such a great idea to use the rubber stamps we all hoard and never use. love this idea, keep up the great work.

[@beverlymeaker7566]

Connie, That is exactly what I was thinking!!!!! Particularly using the wood-backed rubber stamps we order, only to find the image is too small to "stand alone" on a card.

[@ElaineDarlingtonBrown]

Absolutely great. Definitely one of your best ideas yet! Many thanks

[@craftylittlerthings]

Fantastic idea.......though I never really know when or if I want to use the tape, I've never bought any but got some free, now I don't have to buy it. Maybe you could do a video on what where and when you would use this washi tape fake or real huggles xxxAnnxxx

[@traceybradshaw6558]

I love this idea. How cute !

[@MsSoozy]

Excellent video and like you said what a great way to use your stamps! I never knew that technique with the brush and ink, thanks for sharing that. I must get more inks, hardly have any at the present time. :)

[@sharonharris2515]

Looks great and easy thanks , do u have any thing on using pipe cleaners I have few I bought cheap with no idea what do with them thanks . Love your work

[@FlowerGemsGirl]

Wowzers!!! That is an awesome idea!! I have GOT to try this! Great video, Thanx!!

[@papergenius94127]

You have such a great idea! I was going to go out and buy orange washi tape, but here I can make my own. Thanks!

[@paulage1art]

Love it! I made some using dollar store paper tape and stamping. I laid out strips on shipping invoices (like you recommended to save - I have tons of old HSN invoices and am making a glue dot stash in another of your videos - love your frugal ideas!!!!!!!) I have been buying lots of your money saving dollar store stuff for crafting.

[@DebbieBuckland]

Great idea, Lindsay! Thank you.

[@orlaina777]

great idea.......I was wondering where you got the color dusters....I really like those, the light hint of color.

[@thefrugalcrafter]

orlaina777 JudiKins makes them and Skybluepink and Joann online has them

[@SusanScrapPassion]

TFS, this is definitely something I would use over and over. Where I come from, if I am lucky enough to find Washi tape it is more often than not too expensive. Great video

[@TattooedAussieChick]

Gorgeous!

[@americavazquez-ramirez3195]

You're a genius! Thanks for sharing .

[@CardsbyMaaike]

[@thefrugalcrafter]

Di Brown thanks!

[@Sarah-ou9ix]

Whoa those look EXACTLY like washi tape!! I love washi tape but it's kind of annoying because it doesn't stick down on it's own- you have to glue it... I'm definitely going to try your technique!

[@clumsycolours1677]

Sarah so glad I'm not the only one having that issue

[@teddybearluvr]

Awesome!! Looks like the real thing... TFS!!

[@marysternick5619]
