Washi tape is the fastest way to make a page feel assembled rather than drawn. A strip across a corner, a frame around a photo, a torn edge holding a sketch in place. These 26 brushes lay down a strip of illustrated tape in one stroke, at any length, with the translucent, papery look of the real thing. Every pattern tiles seamlessly, so a long strip and a short one look the same. Instant download.
What's in the Set (26 Brushes)
26 tape patterns: florals, geometrics, stripes, and polka dots, all drawn by hand and built to tile without a visible seam.
How to Use Them
Draw one stroke for one strip. Brush size sets the tape width. For a torn end, stop the stroke short and add a small tear with the eraser.

Questions People Ask
Do the strips overlap like real tape?
Yes. Lay one strip over another and the tape underneath shows through, the way real washi does.
Can I use these in planner pages and stickers I sell?
Yes, with the Commercial or Extended license. Digital planner products are a common use for this set.
Do I need an Apple Pencil Pro?
No. Every brush works with any Apple Pencil. Apple Pencil Pro adds barrel roll on the sets that support it.
What if the file won't import?
Email me with your order number. Digital sales are final, but a file that doesn't work is on me, and I'll get you a working one.
