Using up washi tape

I have a lot of washi tape (like who doesn't) 

and I really don't use it a lot. 

I see others that use it and it looooks sooo good.

Mine not so much.

So I have a lot of washi and blank notebook.

Well we can't have a blank, boring looking book cover

so...........................

I just slapped washi everywhere 

willy nilly.

Some had no adhesive so modge podge to the rescue.

And then.....I decided that maybe some gesso

is required to tone it down.

And then I thought maybe stamps

would work in another willy nilly kind of way.

Too much???

I kind of like it.

And why not.
