Make faux washi tape in five seconds or less! Super-easy method 

I've resisted buying washi tape so far. Glad that I ran across this. Oh, boy!

Great idea to create faux washi take. I am very impressed with the fact you are keeping your videos down in the 30-minute mark. I love to watch longer videos too, but when people spend the majority of the time just showing me how to cut and then begin to glue in an assembly line 20 things I end up skipping a lot because it is so repetitive for at least 30 to 40 minutes. Thank you for keeping that in mind. I'm also really enjoying the fact that you are using literally junk which is where the idea for a junk Journal came from, instead of a lot of purchased things to print out or buy in the store. And since I don't have a printer I am loving what you are showing.

OMG. I love this technique. I have never seen anything like this

Great idea Anne, thankyou😊

I like the way you are experimenting as you go😊

Love the idea! I especially like the idea of picking up just a word or two!

This was a neat idea. It reminded me of when I was a little girl we would use the Sunday comics or a comic book and lay a piece of wax paper, wax side down, over a picture and scratch the surface and it would lift the picture off the paper. You could then lay it down on a plain sheet of paper and scratch again and it would print it onto the new paper. Thanks for that old old memory.

Interesting technique.

I love this…and I believe if you were to soak them in water the paper would come off and the print would stay on the tape and I think it will be sticky again. I’ve seen it done with packing tape before. So fun though.

Great project!

this was really fun & different! (and easy) Thank you so much! first time I've seen your channel - I liked & subscribed :D

I did receive some of this several years ago from a couple of girls from the Philippines. I thought it was wonderful, it was before i had ever saw washi tape. Great video, thank you😊

Holy cow! How cute and unique is this! Love it

What a neat idea to use regular old scotch tape! Love how the card turned out. Thanks so much!

Great results this is new to me never seen before 😊😊

Thanks for the tip Anne, had fun while watching your video. Worked a treat, even though I only had shiny tape, I have put strips of masking tape on baking paper and stamped on it create strips of interest for collage, easy to remove. love from Australia.

Love this idea! You can stick the pieces to clear acetate to store them and store in a binder or folder.

It's funny you mention the book you tossed since I'm always having to be careful what I use from really old books as well. I love the really old pages already being distressed/ foxed, BUT I always have to thoroughly scan every single page because there can really been some objectionable content from time to time that I definitely don't want ending up on a card or journal page. Same thing with dictionary and thesaurus pages. Gotta make sure there's nothing inappropriate.

Seen similar technique using tape and magazine and soaking in water to make nail decals

What a wonderful idea. I want to give this a try. Thanks for sharing

Very cool!

That is cool. Such a simple thing. Why didn’t I think of this. Thank you.

Gayle has been referring people to you so here I am 😊

Fantastic tip! Can't wait to try this 💛

Loved this idea and I’m running with it. 😂❤. Shared you on my channel. ❤️. I love that it’s so convenient 🙏🏻🕊🌈❤️💯

Anne this is a super idea! Tyfs!

Really cool idea!

What a great video! Thank you so much. I will definitely use this idea.

Great video. Can’t wait to try it. Thank you ❤

How about using a bone folder or a spoon to get a better adhesion of the tape to paper? Bet that might help!!

This looks great!! Have you tried storing on an inside cover of a binder, on a page protector, or anything non porous? This is going to be fun to play with.

Great technique and a beautiful tag!

I made some too loved this idea. ❤

Great idea and great results. Merci 😊

Wow! This is one of those ideas that makes one say “why didn’t I think of that!” Thank you Anne for this simple and easy peasy way to make washi tape! I assume the tape with still take to the paper if we use Tim Holtz distress inks or coffee dye the pages first! I’m trying your method out as soon as I get home from the office! Thank you & have a fabulous day!

wow super fun!

Awesome project idea.Thank you for sharing 😀🦋

what a good idea!!!

Just brilliant - thank your I’ve just bought heaps of washi tape but I’m going to do this for sure. Just subscribed 👍

LOVE this technique! Thanks for sharing this with us! Now I can’t wait to try it!

I like it, have seen it before too. I found your channel by accident so subscribed. ❤

COOL 😎

Very cool idea. The tag came out fantastic, will subscribe to your channel so I can see what other cool ideas you come up with😊. Thanks for sharing😊

😍❤️

New subscriber here. Interesting. Perhaps you could store the tape on a plastic sheet from page protector. Blessings from Canada 🇨🇦

Just wondering if you lightly dusted the back of the strips with powder or cornstarch or laid them out on parchment paper to store them. Just a thought. Thanks for the clever idea.

Wrapping paper will work

I love this..thank you. How about using double sided tape with one side on a shiny surface to just make a sticker..I thought about trying to see if that would work.

Did you make the little book you were decorating? It looks very interesting but l couldn’t find a video of you making it.

I just came across your channel and I love this idea! Awesome ❤

Thank you. I've tried it with masking tape and sellotape but never with Scotch tape. I know what I will be doing. Hello from Cornwall, UK

Thanks for ideas to decorate my bass guitar music books. The bass clef, just by itself, is deep and boring. And those dotted quarter notes! So "in between" and wishy-washy!

And I would like 2 no, where to find that tape.

Maybe keep your washi tapes on some wax paper
