weekly challenge | Lucy Abrams & Lisa Truesdell

Good morning, and a happy belated new year! We'll be bringing you double the inspiration for each weekly challenge this year. Today, Lucy Abrams and I are challenging you to put your washi tape to work with your punches!

The easiest way to punch washi tape is to put it on cardstock or patterned paper first, and then punching it. Lucy used this technique for the sweet woodgrain hearts on her card.

(supplies - Block Party Card kit, Versafine black ink)

And I paired the silver star tape with a cloud punch :
