DIY Washi Tape Popsicle Cards



With the official start of summer just a couple days away, these popsicle-shaped washi tape cards are the perfect hot weather greeting!



For the longest time, I was puzzled by our wood grain washi tape - I knew I liked it, but I couldn't quite wrap my head around what to do with it. You know, other than decorate things! And then, it hit me - wood grain washi tape makes for the best-looking popsicle sticks since, well, popsicle sticks!



To craft these cute cards, start with a piece of card stock approximately 10cm x 24cm.
Fold in half - your card should now be approximately 10cm x 12cm.
Cut folded card stock into a popsicle shape - kind of like a triangle with a rounded top and corners - or a piece of candy corn you've already bitten the tip off. Make sure you don't cut through the fold at the top! My final cards (without sticks) are about 9cm x 12cm.
Cover one or both sides with washi tape strips.



To make the stick, cut a strip of cardstock approximately 1.5cm x 10cm. Cover both sides with wood grain washi tape. Round one edge. Tape to the inside of your card.



If you'd like to mail your popsicle card, simply fold the stick inside the card before sliding into your envelope.



Pretty cute, right? Check back tomorrow for another version of popsicle cards!

Happy crafting!
