Petite Red Flower Panel Card

The length of the washi paper was folded and overlapped to create three “panels” (left, back and right side) .  The right ‘panel’ doesn’t cover the left panel totally….. about 1/2″ from the edge.  I then folded the top corner back to show the backside of the washi, which is white.  To give it a little more elegance, a layer of gold echizen paper was added on the flap.  Three mizuhiki strands were made into a loop  and adhered onto the card.

Cranes #3027

An embossed origami crane stamped accents and compliments the washi….

Flying to the Moon #3016

Die cut two circles, one smaller than the other.  Stamp and emboss in black,  on red cardstock, using our Brush Circles stamp.

Spring Festival #3024

Using washi paper as a background, the die cut images blend in and accent the card.  Picking up colors from the washi is a technique often used to match cardstock and mono-tone images…

Semi-Panel Card White Satin Floral

I took the length of the washi paper ( 8 1/2″ x 11″) and folded it so it would overlap.  I then folded the washi paper back in an angle so the white (backside of washi paper) would show. Trim as needed.  Accented with mizuhiki cords.

Semi-Panel Card Variation

Using the same semi-panel card technique,  I made cards with different washi. Eash has it’s own beauty so each card becomes so unique….  Accent with mizuhiki cords.  The 1/8″ double-sided tape works wonders with these cords!

Orange Semi-Panel Card

I took the length of the washi paper ( 8 1/2″ x 11″) and folded it so it would overlap.  I then folded the washi paper back in an angle so the white (backside of washi paper) would show. Trim as needed.  Accented with mizuhiki cords.

Orange Band

Using a smaller Tsumugi ivory  card, cut and layer washi papers and adhere onto cardstock.  Accent with mizuhiki cord. Use 1/8″ doublestick tape so the mizuhiki cords adhere easily.

Angle Card

Using the Japanese ‘Lines’ technique….  check the “Washi Memo Pad”  or our Facebook page for tips….

Band Card Flying Cranes

Here’s the band card method again….I like using this technique on smaller notecard sizes.  On this one, I just simply cut washi to cover the length of the card and accented with the cords.  I’ve always liked to keep the cards simple as the beauty of the washi paper speaks for itself….

Semi-Panel Crane Card

I took the length of the washi paper ( 8 1/2″ x 11″) and folded it so it would overlap.  I then folded the washi paper back in an angle so the white (backside of washi paper) would show. Trim as needed.  Accented with mizuhiki cords.

Teal Chrysanthemum Panel Card

Teal Mum Panel Card - www.HankoDesigns.com 2014 Gallery Card

The length of the washi paper was folded and overlapped to create three “panels” (left, back and right side) .  The right ‘panel’ doesn’t cover the left panel totally….. about 1/2″ from the edge.  I then folded the top corner back to show the backside of the washi, which is white.  To give it a little more elegance, a layer of gold echizen paper was added on the flap.  Three mizuhiki strands were made into a loop  and adhered onto the card.

Pastel Sakura Panel Card

Sakura Pastel Awabi Musubi Washi Japanese Handmade Card - HankoDesigns.com 2014

Cut washi and gold paper the length of the notecard.  Accent with a mizuhi know or simple half bow.

Sakura Pastel Panel Card

Fold the card the edge shows about 1/4″.  Cut washi and gold paper and layer.  Trim edge of card with gold paper.

Pastel Sakura Panel Card Variation

Here’s another simple card to create….  Cut washi paper to cover  2/3 of the front of the note card.  The mizuhiki was curled with a tweezer.  Using the gold paper, cut out a leaf.  The end of the cord is tucked under the layered washi paper.

Cards Made with One Sheet of Washi Paper

This was all made with one sheet of washi paper ( 8 1/2 x 11) and I had some left over!  Choose notecard colors that match the colors silkscreened on the washi….  Mizuhiki cords that reflected the colors in the washi were also selected.

Sailboat #3007

Sail into the sunset with this card….

Card by designer Jean Okimoto

tag: sailboat, boat, washi

Arigato Knot #3008

Simple layering of various rectangles…accented with a mizuhiki square knot.  The “arigato” is embossed in black.

Card by designer by Jean Okimoto

tag: washi, arigato, thank you, mizuhiki

Happy Birthday Flower #5003

Trim petal shapes with all different designs of washi.  Outline the petals and leaves , and add a message…..

Thinking of You Hearts #5012

Cut out heart shapes with washi.  The background cardstock is cut out with pinking shears, and stitched onto the card.  Accent with embellishments and message.

Layered Tree #5010

Cut out tree layers with different color washi.  The background uses one of the brush stamps, accented with a red strip.  Stamp a tone on tone greeting and you are done!

Hearts in Squares #5009

Punch out hearts, and simply adhere on the squares of washi paper.  Perfect for Valentine’s Day!

Omedeto Dress #5008

Stamp the cardstock with floral image.  The dress is accented with trim and ribbon….  Add your congratulatory message.

Holiday Ornaments #5006

Punch out various circles with different washi paper designs.  Adhere and stitch them all together and add your message…..

Christmas Tree #5005

Cut a tall triangle using the washi paper….stamp the background, tone on tone on green cardstock.  How about an accent with a washi paper ‘ribbon?’

Layered Flower #5004

The background is stamped with various brush and message stamps.  The layered flowers were cut in free form, with the leaf and bottom layer stitched.  The center blossom holds it all together….

Arigato Flower #5002

The “Elegant Arigato” stamp is used as the stem for this flower.  The red button accents the center of the blossom…simple yet elegant!  Creat your own blossom, or use your favorite flower and leaf die.

Washi Christmas Wreath #5001

5001 Christmas Wreath card from Sally Traidman - www.HankoDesigns.com 2013

Cut strips of  washi paper, twist in the middle and trim the ends in an angle to create a ‘bow’ effect.  Adhere in a circular shape…this card has mizuhiki outlining the circle.

Lavender Plum Tag #3003

Lavender Plum Tag

A simple thank you card is always so wonderful to make.  Match the inks, paper and cardstock in similar hues to create a tone on tone effect!

Mum & Cranes #3006

The chrysanthemum was embossed in gold and layered on washi and embossed paper.

Pink Florals #3005

So simple yet elegant. Background papers and ink colors match the base cardstock.

Fan Die and Mum Blossoms #3004

One of our favorites!  The background was stamped and cut into three equal rectangles…resembling a Japanese screen. The inside of the fan was stamped and cut using the die.

Fancy Hat Kokeshi #4005

One of our kokeshi dolls dressed in a fancy hat!  The hat was cut in free form, and embellished with floral accents.

Blue Umbrellas #4004

Embellished with different shades of gems, this card, layered simply, brings out the best of the indigo blues in the washi.

Angel #4003

A sweet holiday angel created from a scalloped edge circle punch.  Various shades of green tsumugi cardstock and red were used.

Winter Tree #4002

The tree was drawn in free form, cut out and paper-quilted.    Accent with favorite embellishments!

Holiday Tiered Tree #4001

A tiered holiday tree,  sectioned and paper quilted.  The shapes were drawn in free form.  Embellished with favorite accents!
