Tips & Techniques Tuesday: Washi-Stickled Flower

Happy Tuesday, Stickle Lovers! Karen N here from Craftily Yours, and today, I am super excited to show you a fun combination of washi tape and Stickles!

First, I started with a 1.5" circle and some washi tape. I then wrapped and folded the washi around the circle. When one row was done, I moved in a little and wrapped and folded some more. Once I reached the inside, I just tore the washi tape off....and then fluffed up the edges a little. The fabulous Tim Holtz has a video - HERE - if you are a video learner.

What Tim didn't do is to add some fabulous Stickles to adorn the flower! I did! I added a large glob in the middle and then used the tip that I dipped in the middle to lightly Stickle the edges.

When I was done and let it dry for quite a while, I have this cute, easy and sparkly flower...

I've been in a Christmas frame-of-mind for the last month or so, so I used my Xmas Red Stickle washi flower on a holiday card...

Don't ya just LOVE Christmas?! I know I do!

Craftily yours,

Karen

Linky Party - Xmas Red

Welcome to the second week at All that Stickles. Our first week was great. One thing that you want to be sure not to miss is our Design Teams techniques/tutorials every Tuesday and Thursday. If you missed Tonya's and Ashley's posts this week, you can find them HERE.

Now it's time for our linky party!

Every Saturday will mark the beginning of a new weekly linky party at All that Stickles . Each week we will designate a color of regular Stickles (usually not Distress Stickles, or Ice Stickles, but every once in a while we may throw those in there) and invite you to share projects you've made using that particular color of Stickles!

And don't forget about the prizes! Every month we will have multiple sponsors and multiple winners! Winners are not announced on a weekly basis, but rather on a monthly basis. The more times you link up, the more chances you have to win! Sponsors will be announced at the beginning of the month and then posted on the sidebar for the rest of the month, and the winners will be announced on the first Saturday of the next month. So February winners will be announced on Saturday March 2nd.
