Do you know Masking Tape Art?
Masking tapes that can be purchased at 100 yen shops or Three Coins are also popular among girls ♡ They are not only affordable but also come in a wide variety of colors and patterns, and there are many ways to use them ♩
Among them, "Masking Tape Art" refers to art pieces created using masking tape, as the name suggests *
They are super cute and easy to make, making them perfect for invitations ♡
The process is very simple ♡
First, prepare the masking tape you want to use and a postcard * If you're not good at drawing or a bit worried about starting right away, it might be a good idea to sketch a draft on the postcard ♩
Once you tear the masking tape into your desired size, start sticking it on ♡ The idea is similar to the collages you often made in kindergarten when you were little *
Idea 1 * Clothing
Draw an illustration of a girl and decorate her dress with masking tape ♩ By tearing and sticking, the overlapping tape will express the volume of the skirt ♡
Using bright colors like pink and blue, or striped and checkered patterns will give a super cute finish ♡ Making a ribbon out of tape is also a good idea ♩
This is a kimono, which gives a more subdued impression than a dress or gown * Creating a white wedding kimono or traditional Japanese clothing with masking tape could also be wonderful ♡
Because it’s so simple, a single flower stands out greatly * This seems like something anyone could attempt ♡
Making a lot of small flowers and scattering them around is also good ♡ Writing a heartfelt message in the center would complete it perfectly ♩
If you choose a postcard made of washi paper as a base, the finish will have a Japanese feel to it ♡ The torn masking tape exudes warmth, doesn't it? *
Idea 3 * Animals
A bunny made from patterned masking tape instead of plain tape is really cute ♡ I want to create a cute and unique invitation that will surprise everyone who sees it ♩
Animals alone are cute, but if you stick tape with floral patterns around, it becomes vibrant at once ♡
Idea 4 * According to the Season
It might be nice to think of a design that matches the wedding season ♡ By using several different colors of tape, like this cherry blossom tree, you can complete a splendid piece of art ♩
The rain boots made from dot and check tape stylishly represent the rainy season ♡
The illustration of a watermelon is perfect for summer ♩ It uniquely expresses the experience of enjoying it in a four-panel style ♡
Idea 5 * Hearts
The heart, a symbol of love, is definitely essential ♡ Let’s create a large heart by sticking various shades of pink tape together ♩
Sprinkling lots of small hearts around is also adorable * This invitation seems to overflow with love ♡
This article has introduced ideas for incorporating masking tape art into invitations ♩ Isn't it wonderful that something so cute can be made so easily? ♡
It may take a little time to make each one, but if you pour your heart into it, the recipient is sure to be delighted ♩ Why not create your own unique invitations and send them out to many people? ♡
