Washi Meets...Decorate to Celebrate DT Challenge #95: Altered Switchplate

Hello,

It's Wednesday, and it means it's Decorate to Celebrate time! Wed is also when I post creations using washi tape!!!

I am so ready for Spring!!! It's still cold and snowing here...

So here it is...Washi Tape Meets...Altered Switchplate!

Challenges:

1. JUGS #282: Photo Inspiration (don't know if they accept projects other than cards, but since the colors are from their challenge, thought I would link to it, too!)

2. WAW #173: Anything Goes

3. MMMC #10: Birds of a Feather

4. SSS Mon: Just a hint of clover...

How-To:

The bird is a vinyl sticker, and I already had it there before.

I took the switchplate off, covered it with the gold polka-dot washi tape and put it back.

I cut the roses from Art Philosophy Cricut (2 different sizes), rolled them and added gold glitter.

I stamped 2 flower images with leaves, colored them with Shin Han Touch Twin and Copic markers and heat embossed them in clear 3 times.

Then, I added the stamped images and the roses on the switch plate.

Supplies (CTMH):

retired SOTM

Shin Han Touch Twin markers

Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge

Gold Polka--Dot Washi Tape

Colonial Daisy cardstock

Tweezers

Heat Gun

Others:

Versamark

Clear Embossing Powder (Ranger)

Copic marker

Glue

Gold Glitter
