I just bought my first roll of washi......... lol. Went to a class at Archiver's yesterday to make Christmas Cards. Of course had to shop and found some cute things to make Christmas cards and Washi was one of the elements I had to have.....

I guess better late than never!

Look out ;) All it takes is one roll and pretty soon it's two and then they multiple like mice!

I do have a small stash but I keep looking at it and wondering how to use it on my LO's. I did use a cute Christmas one yesterday, one strip. It's like papers, LOVE them but some are harder to use than others. Maybe I better look at some more examples.

I have 29 rolls, but they were cheap and so each use is only pennies. Very versatile and easy to work with. Enjoy the new goody!

It's all over for you now. Clean out a drawer or get a new storage tower to make room for all that future washi!!

holding hands to face, shaking head "NONONONONOOOOOOO" lololol. I will most likely use what I bought on cards as it is read polka-dot.

Rolls of washi tape are like potato chips... you can't have just one... you will want more!

I used my first washi tape recently on a layout and love it! I did place the tape over a strip of white CS so the PP underneath wouldn't show through. A friend of mine just used it like ribbon on a small gift that was wrapped in SB paper and even made a small Washi bow. Very cute!

Welcome to the washi club! LOL I have a scrappy friend at work I've been trying to convince about washi. She doesn't get it. It's one of those, once you try it then you will get it.

I honestly don't have that much. I have all the Doodlebug dots and some other cheap stuff but that's it. Nothing spectacular!

LOL! better late than never. I have about 25 rolls maybe, but still sometimes find myself looking for something different.... I buy ones that are versatile and could be used on a variety of layouts. i don't always want to use washi, but sometimes it adds a nice touch! But the other ladies are right - it does start to multiply!

I've recently joined the "Washi Club".... got a ton of it but have barely ever used it. I do Project Life, so I think I'm going to start incorporating some of it on my jounaling cards and make my own.

I only have maybe 5 rolls and have rarely used it. Just not my thing
