Okay, ignore the title of this blog post. I couldn't come up with a better name for this DIY project!
So as you all know, I have been REALLY obsessed with Washi tape recently. {For all those who don't know what Washi tape is, please google it. B-) }
So I am trying to come up with ways to complement the absence of washi tape in my stationery stock at home. But hey, today's post is really versatile and you can actually make your choice of washi tape using this technique!
For all the video hunters, I am sorry I couldn't record a video this week. So yeah, you have to read the whole post today. *Wohahaha*
So today's post is short and not complicated AT ALL.

Here are the things you will need:
2) Flip the paper and start sticking your tape on the back of the desired pattern on the paper.
3) Use a pencil to outline the tape before cutting it or chuck that start cutting the side of the tape like a boss. B-)

Here are the things you will need:
- Two-way non-foam tape( I got my roll of tape from Crawford Market, Mumbai and it cost me around INR 50 which is less than a dollar)
- Handmade/Wrapping/Deco paper/Magazine
- Scissor
- Pencil and scale (optional)
Le procedure:
1) Okay, so start by choosing a beautiful piece of paper whose pattern you want on your tape. Uh, I am not a boring person but this magazine on banking was the only thing I could find!
So choose your picture (a la Pokemon style- *I choose you*) and cut it out from the magazine.

| Sorry for the shabby outlining. :P This is how the tape will look from either sides of the paper after it is stuck. |
3) Use a pencil to outline the tape before cutting it or chuck that start cutting the side of the tape like a boss. B-)
 |
| Yes, like a boss. |
4) We are on step 4 now. What's next? NOTHING! You're done. Haha.
Choose different patterns to create different types of tape!
I really liked the apple one and the middle one that looks like watercolour!
5) As usual, use it to seal envelopes or wrap gifts! I am using quite a lot of it for my penpal letters :D
So that's it for this post!
Hope you all liked it. Please feel free to leave your comments below!
Until next time, toodles!
