I cant take full credit for the idea because I saw a girl do this before but I wanted to share it because I thought it was an awesome Idea !!!

Drywall tape !!! You know....the roll of stuff that drywall guys will put over seams and holes before drywall mud to fix your wall....its a roll of mesh type fabric that you can paint or ink to match your pages and the best part is that it is meant to stick to a wall forever so it already has glue on the back so you just unroll it and stick it on your pages ! I love the texture it makes and now that I have a roll of it I am sure to be figuring out new ways to use it.
REMEMBER TO LEAVE ME A COMMENT THIS WEEK TO BE ENTERED TO WIN THIS WEEKS BLOG CANDY :)

What a great idea! I know DH has some of that in the garage:-)
That's a fab idea. TFS:)
I had NO Idea what u were talking about with the dry wall tape..CUZ i have some colored mesh stuff like that -i got it at a scrapbook store-in purple of course-lol... i cant wait until we make some pages with it-did i mention i miss scrapping with ya yet!! hehe
Oh my gosh what a great Idea. I have like 2 rolls of that stuff, from when I drywalled and taped and mudded my Therapy room in my old house. I miss my therapy room so much. Anyway I've got some. Yipee. I have another things to use for scrapbooking. Thanks Wendy!
That's a cool idea!! If you come up with fun ways to use it, share them - I have a whole box of magic mesh still left over, that I need to be using waaay more than I am :)
I know isn't that fun to use! It is so expansive in the scrapbook store for only 1 yard when you can buy a huge roll of it. Years ago, I found a big roll of yellow dry wall tape, I was so excited. I used a ton of it, gave some to friends & still have quite a bit left!
I am glad you put that on your page... I used it not long ago and took safety pins and hung tags with it... Glad you liked the idea...
That is a great idea. I've used drywall tape, too. You can also color it with permanent markers or Staz-on ink.
Thanks so much -- I'm very excited to win:-)
Looks like I need to make a trip to the hardware store! LOL!
Love you L/O!
Hugs,
True :D
looking closer at this page Wendy. I didn't think I would like to use Staples on my page but I like how you have used them here on the letters. I will surely have to try it sometime soon!
Billena, that is the tim holtz tiny staple gun and I love love it ! Look it up on scrapbook.com...its like 15.00 and is top on kellys list for when we go to ckc...I use it on almost every page now...lol...im hooked on it :) hehe
yep i am getting one of those staplers at ckc wether it is at the convention or joanns-lol.. hey wendy time for a new page-i know u have a few new ones-hehe!!!!
You ladies have to tell me what you buy when you go, so I can start a list of stuff I need, so I am not so Old School. I kind of have a list going already, but they are big ticket items. You know the Cricut and maybe the embosser thingy the little green one. Can't remember its name I always forget it. LOL. I am gonna check it out though for sure. Thanks. Also how do I see your older pages on here, is there an archives. I am gonna try to figure it out. LOL
billena i think if you go all the way to the bottom it will say something like see older posts or on the sidebar there at the bottom i think there is a link to older posts. I found your blog last night and followed ya :) Is it the cuttlebug...I have had it for a while and havent used it alot but Im getting into it now ! And i swear i just got the huge cricut and dont use it nearly as much as I should. But when I get back home I will...I promise :)
I love using drywall tape. Love the look and texture.
Oh my stars! I love your work, it's amazing...Thanks for all the inspiration!!
super cool idea! i didn't know you could use that stuff!
I just found your blog. WOW! Wonderful work. You are very good. I loved youtube videos.
