Resistance is Futile…

March 8, 2010 By Spoonful of Sugar - 22 Comments

when it comes to these lovelies! My shipment of Japanese Masking Tape arrived today to add to my collection 🙂 I purchased it from here.

I made up this quick card using the tape.

Here are some more inspirational projects from my Masking Tape book that I blogged about here. 

For more Masking Tape inspiration, head over to I-Do-It-Yourself for their series on Japanese Masking Tape Craftiness – part 1, part 2, part 3, and part 4.

    You’re making it very difficult for me to resist this crafting supply. I’m trying so hard to be good. I’m out of room in my little studio. But really, I NEED some of this tape. Lovely stuff, Lisa.

    Take care,
    Cassie
