Washi Tape Stickers & Art

I’m a huge fan of all the beautiful washi tape out there but a lot of the time, I find myself just hoarding it instead of actually using it. I wanted to figure out a way to make some sort of washi tape wall art without too much hassle or expense!

I also wanted to maintain the translucency of the tape. I know I could have just stuck the washi tape to white paper and then cut it out but I wanted the “look” of washi tape, which, for me, means it has to be translucent. I was more nervous cutting out this project than I was when I cut out my Montessori Sandpaper Letters! I didn’t want to waste all that beautiful washi tape if this project didn’t pan out…luckily it worked on the first try!

I used my Silhouette Cameo to easily cut out the words but you could definitely do this project with some patience and a sharp craft knife. The Clear Sticker Paper is pretty thick but allows you to place your work of art almost anywhere! I love the idea of using this tutorial to make decals for a kid’s room. A Washi Tape Millennium Falcon? Yes, please!

Washi Tape Stickers

Materials:

• Silhouette Clear Sticker Paper
• Washi Tape
• Free “My Happy Place” File (Studio, JPEG)
• Silhouette Cameo or Craft Knife

Instructions:

1. Cover one sheet of the Silhouette Clear Sticker Paper completely in washi tape.

2. Cut out shape or words with either a cutting machine (Cameo Settings: 1, 33, 6) or by hand with a craft knife.

3. Remove the backing from the letters and stick in place.

4. Repeat until entire saying or image is positioned correctly and enjoy!

 I decided to hang my art in one of my favorite places…my craft nook! Where would you hang yours?
