Tape is all the rage. I first took notice of this trend last year on Emily Martin’s fashion blog, Some Girls Wander, and since then, I’ve seen masking tape as decoration on several blogs and websites. Masking tape and washi tape make really cute photo and scrapbook embellishments. You can even buy them as digi-kits from Two Peas in a Bucket and as beautiful Washi Tape Frames from Kitschy Digitals (on sale at Jessica Sprague until Sunday, April 18th, by the way!).
More examples:
Feel free to use this kit towards any personal or business-related project (ie. web graphics), as long as the kit is not sold — please read my TOU. I had fun preparing this clip art set and I hope you enjoy using it!

Katrina, you have no idea how much I love you for these right now – I spent ages trying to find some for the photo swap images and ended up with the worst quality tape image you could imagine! Thank you so much for putting these together, I’m going to blog about it today :)
