I love twill tape. A demo used it on some of her stamp a stack cards and I'm hooked. (they do that on purpose don't they). I also love it in the idea book samples.
But I don't know what to do with the thickest twill tape, and since I can just buy the medium and small ones I can't justify the purchase unless I know what to do with it.
So what do you do with it? I only do cards right now, not scrapbooking- and I don't need any new belts ;)
You can probably search the gallery for twill tape and see some good ideas. But one thing you can do is make bookmarks with it. Just stamp on it, cut to length, fray the ends a little and there you go.
I haven't used the widest size on any of my cards, so I have no great original ideas for it. I do think it's neat to stamp on the twill tape though, so I'm sure it would be great to add a stamped layer of twill tape to many cards.
I could never find a way to use this on a card so just recently we stamped a length of it and used it for a gag gift. We turned it into a guitar strap for a mini guitar for the HS band director.

I used in only once and I've had it ablout 8 months. I stamped one of the square stamps from one of the new hostess sets. It fit perfectly, and I just frayed the raw edges a little. I plan to play with it a little more

how about cutting a long length and applying adhesive to attatch cards to display in your room?? or stamp and make a matching ribbon on a gift package??
I just uploaded a notebook last night that I used the thickest twill tape on, this was the first time I had used some, but it fit really well on here. Thick Twill
When you stamp on twill tape, can you use classic inks or should you use craft? I only have classic inks and would only be using it in card-making, not scrapbooking.
I have had the twill for over a year now and haven't touched it yet. But now I am so inspired!! I think for Mother's Day, I am going to be asked to be locked in my stamp room for my gift - after brunch of course!! Thanks for the great ideas!

Oh my goodness, Soni! What a fantastic idea!! I'm going to hang some up, but instead of adhesive, I'm gonna use mini clothespins, so I can change them, depending on the season!!
I did a card at a workshop that used the mummy from the halloween set from the last holiday mini. We frayed the edges, so it really did look like it was mummy cloth. (not that I ever seen a mummy (: )
What do you do with the thickest twill tape?
