Confessions of a Zip Stripper


Welcome to my blog, Paper Crafting With Rebecca!

Ok... I confess... patterned paper is nice... but oooh those zip strips! I love those unique little strips found at the top of CTMH patterned paper. I made a video showing just one of the many things you can do with zip strips... a boho-chic card.



Boho-chic is so fun to create!

You can stick to just a few colors, such as this masculine birthday card.

Here is a very simple version using this technique.

Here is another example... once you have created the background, have fun with the embellishments!

Some of the supplies I used today are listed here... thank you for your support if you choose to purchase from my links...

I started by cutting out two pieces of White Daisy Cardstock
  • one for the base 11" x 4.25"
  • another to adhere the zip strips to 4" x 5.25"... once the zip strips are adhered this piece will be cut to 3.75" x 5"
I also cut a piece of black cardstock to 4" x 5.25". Also, for this particular card I used a die to create some "black lace" using the same black cardstock.

You will also need some embossing powder. For the card in this video I used Ranger Gold Tinsel Embossing Powder.
Again, thank you for joining me today. I hope you enjoyed the video. Please leave any comments or suggestions in the comments below and please do subscribe to my YouTube channel so you don't miss out on any of the upcoming fun!

Happy Paper Crafting,
Rebecca
