Gaffer Tape Mosaic
Here’s a super simple way to create unique embellishments using your SiStv gaffer tape! You can use this process to create any shape of page embellishment you want! Here’s what you do:Step one:
Pick one color of coordinating cardstock for each type of gaffer tape you plan to use:Step two:
Draw the shape that you would like to mosaic. In my case I decided to do wavy stripes:
Step three:
Cut/tear little pieces of gaffer tape and cover the entire shape. Be sure to leave spaces between the pieces. It’s okay to overlap the lines. You can be messy about it. We are going to cut these out:
Step four:
Cut out your shape. Be sure to cut inside the lines you drew so they don’t show.
TA DA - you have mosaic embellishments for your page! You can make them into anything you want to - your imagination is the only limitation! Here’s what I did with mine:
If you decide to give this a try, I'd love to see what you make! Link up your creation in the comments section by next Tuesday and I will pick a participant at random to send this roll of SiSTV gaffer tape to:
Stay tuned for next Wednesday's tutorial which will be about making the most of your patterned paper.
