Washi Tape Holder

Welcome to Punchin' Up!

 
Today I'm going to share with you this awesome Washi Tape Holder.  It is just so fun to make and what a great way to store your Washi tape.  I saw the dimensions on another Demonstrator's Blog, Sam Hammond Donald, from the UK, so all credit goes to her for this creative idea.  I just put my own twist on it and changed it up a bit by stamping it with flowers.  But then I thought..... how cute would it be to decorate it by adding a flower. So this is what I came up with... I think it turned out great.

 Here are the measurements and photos so you can create your own Washi Tape Holder.

5 Spool Washi Tape Holder
Cardstock size 11" x 6 5/8"
Scored on the long side at 1", 3", 5 1/2" 8", 10"
Scored on the short side at 2", 4 5/8"

3 Spool Washi Tape Holder
Cardstock size 11" x 5 5/8"
Scored on the long side 1", 3", 5 1/2", 8", 10"
Scored on the short side 2", 3 5/8"

Score, fold and then cut on the score line as shown in the picture below

 Fold and glue the first sides as shown below


Fold and glue the next sides and cut off at an angle as shown below
 

Mountain Fold in the middle, glue and then add Washi Tape around the bottom of the container as shown below
 
 I made a flower using the Pansy Punch and glued it to the side as shown...So cute...don't you think?

Punch Art --4 of July

Welcome to Punching Up!

Celebrating the 4th of July

I would like to share with you a Punch Art picture  I did for the month of July using a variety of Stampin' Up! Punches and Framelits.  (some are retired, but I keep all punches and framelits as I love creating with them)


 
 This was a class I did for my customers. We had a  Punch Art Picture Class every month for a year where we created a different Punch Art Picture for each month. This class was a big hit.  It is so fun to decorate with a different picture in the frame for each month.  I hope you enjoy it..... 

 Please visit my online store to purchase any of your Stampin' Up! products to create your masterpiece.

Blog and "Subscribe by Email" so you don't miss any of my projects that I post.

HAPPY 4th OF JULY TO YOU ALL!!!
