I've used it a few times but it never looks right on my pages. I tend to use it for more behind the scenes things like taping down stuff on the back of the page, as a mask for stamps, etc.

A friend on another group asked how much we had. I think I am up near 100 now. I have the Costco WRMK washi tape holder and it came with 30~ :bluelol:

Re: Call Me Late
well I am over the Washi tape. The roll I bought I used yesterday to make some cards. Not impressed with it at all. It peeled when pulling it off the roll, does not stick well at all. I can do the same thing with a thin strip of paper and my glue pen. Now I can say, been there, done that!

I just joined the Washi craze recently too. I have several rolls and probably won't buy a ton more. I do like it but it would be better if the rolls didn't ave as much on them and were a little cheaper. I don't need that much tape of the exact same thing.

Me thinks that the roll you got may have been "aged". In that the glue was not as strong as it would have been if it were new?

well it was with all the new items at Archiver's. So maybe it was defective. However, I saw on another site I go to that it isn't the best when it comes to sticking down especially on textured cardstock.

Bummer but that makes sense. That is why I never buy glitter cardstock...nothing sticks to it.

That happens a lot when I use washi. I end up using a glue dot or my zig glue pen thing.

The only problem I have had with the Washi Tape, is that it mulitplies so darn fast :winkb:

I think my problem is our humidity. It will stick well at first, then later I'll look at the layout, and the washi will have rolled up. But I just add a little Zig glue or a staple. I think it just adds to my embellishing, though.

Re: Call Me Late UPDATED
For me I've found that some washi sticks better than others. The Queen & Co sticks nicely and doesn't tear or come apart. Some other tapes (namely the Smash tape) doesn't stick as well and ripped in half leaving some behind on the roll. I don't have a ton of it but I do have almost 20 rolls. I like to buy stuff that is versatile and get used on several different pages.
