While I was working on other projects for #massmakemarch2025, I accidentally made my own cello tape!!! But let me back up just a bit.... one of my new favorite artists, Margareth, of Seven Plaza (check out her you tube and ko fi shops for awesome digital files and kits) made a digital kit of cello tape. It is FANTASTIC!!! I bought some printable transparent vinyl sticker paper (Amazon ) and printed out her awesome tapes. They are just as good as Tim Holtz and way cheaper as you can print the digital file as many times as you want. So I have the vinyl sticker paper.
Then, on day 4 of #massmakemarch2025, we made faux meta tags with Crafty by Toni. (The project that requires alcohol ink. See previous posts.) As I was working with the ink and making the tags, I thought, I wonder if this ink will work on the vinyl sticker paper. I had a piece of scrap from cutting the digital pieces and tried dabbing the ink onto it with a dauber. OMG. It takes the ink beautifully and dries almost instantly. Now I know that next time I can use a lighter color (or any color you want!) and make nearly identical cello tape to the brand name. I'm in love! :) And now, with the digital file and the vinyl sticker paper option, I'm in cello tape for life. LOL
Happy Crafting.
