Very helpful information and I wanted to add that PS has an alignment tool at the top, so when you select your designs you can manually align them-spacing and centering correctly to the canvas that is.
This video was so helpful. Exactly what I was looking for. Could you share a little more tips on how to make your pattern (the cute witchy book) so clear and pretty for the design? Thank you
Yaaay I’m so so glad! Yeah make sure you have the right amount of space per image and make sure it’s all lining up. Best thing about photoshop is that once you duplicate an image, every time you duplicate it it will automatically lock into the place the previous image was moved if that makes sense? Also make sure your image is just the normal file, you don’t need to make the image extra small for the design just add the image file you already have and then you can make it small on the washi tape file xx
Thank you so much for your video. It’s really helpful 💞also you shows us how to use Ali baba I use Ali baba but I never thought about this things. Thank you 😊
I am struggling to find out what dimensions I should use in Photoshop for the thicker and thinner versions for washi tapes. could you provide a general Photoshop dimension for those two types?
Hey yeah just use the same dimensions as I did in photoshop then make sure you use the snap grid option as well!💗 If you have any more question feel free to ask xx
@@rebeljones Thanks so much 💖 I have another Q; It's my first time trying to design products so I don't know how to do them for the manufacturer. How should I design the washi tapes with gold/colorful foils? I searched a lot but can't find what I need. I saw somewhere that we have to draw the foiled part black in a separate layer. Is that right?
@@K_halmiland it totally depends on the manufacture you go with! I just said to mine that I want the moon and stars to have the effect on it. You should be able to just tell them xx
Hello! Thanks for the helpful video. I was wondering while you send the inquiry if you should also attach the photoshop pdf file. Or is it smarter to attach the file after they’ve approved of your request? Wanted to know just so my designs are safe and not potentially stolen >
@@rebeljones I saw them on Alibaba and wondered if they had good quality washi since they are fairly new. Do you like the quality of the tape and print color?
Great video! So do you create your designs in CMYK to start? I know you had photoshop set up for CMYK, so I was wondering if the witchy book you imported was also originally created in CMYK? I create most of my designs in RGB so I’m wondering if I’ll have to redraw them in CMYK before designing washi tapes! Thank you!
@@rebeljones ohh so once you transferred them into the CMYK photoshop file, that made them compatible for the print shop manufacturer? That is great to know!
@@cnags89so when you have a psd file you can change the mode from rgb to cmyk it’ll slightly alter the colors though and might need some brightening or fixing.
Hi I was wondering if you could tell me how much you paid for the 3 designs and 50 per design just so I can get an estimate of how much it’ll cost for the washi tapes I want to make!
I always like getting samples in hand before I decide, but have realized how costly that is on Alibaba. Have you ever had any luck getting them to send you samples for a reasonable price, or free is even better lol
Hi, do you have the packages shipped to your home address? I’m really nervous about giving my home address to Alibaba suppliers but I don’t think they will ship to a P.O. Box.
Hey, so I have my own studio now so they get sent there but yes I used to. I’ve had no problem with it and the manufacture I get them off and I have linked in the description are amazing 🫶🏻🫶🏻
Hey, I can’t say it isn’t possible but it’s very rare that companies make washi tape for only that amount. If you have a look on alibaba.com you will be able to see the minimum order amount you can get x

Thank you so much 🫶🏻 I’m glad it was useful! Also thank you so so much for your tip! 🫶🏻
The manufacturer typically sends you the template with sizes and bleed already done.
Yes you are so right! They send me that now makes it a lot easier doesn’t it? 🫶🏻 thank you so much for watching my love 🌸
Thanks Rebel this is really invaluable for anyone doing this ☺️
Omg yaaay I’m so so glad 💗💗

Rebel do we need to send a picture of the washi tape we are ordering??
I most have a answer.
But thanks for helping me ❤❤❤❤❤❤
To the manufacturer yes, then they should come back with any parts of the design you need to change etc. hope that helps 🫶🏻
a really great informative video! thank you 🧸🤎🤎
Lovely vlog, thanks for sharing. Not too long, too short!😉 i wish you would show how to centre the designs. I didn’t get that.🌷
Ooo I’m so sorry maybe I can do a video on how to just design the file ready for the manufacture?xx
@@rebeljones that would be amazing! Thank you!
Thank you very much kiss from Italy
Thank you so much! Perfect video for my needs ♥

I am struggling to find out what dimensions I should use in Photoshop for the thicker and thinner versions for washi tapes. could you provide a general Photoshop dimension for those two types?
Hey my love so if you ask your manufacturer they should be able to send over the correct ones they need xx
This is awesome!❤
Thank you so much Maria 🫶🏻
wow thanks for all this information! this is really insightful :) ❤️
Hey crystal! I’m so glad it’s helped 🥰 💗
Hi. Very helpful. Can you do video on how artwork/designs (witchy cat book) are made. Thx
Hey Joanna thank you so much I’m so glad it’s been helpful! I draw all of my designs x
So helpful! I’ve been on alibaba before and literally had no clue, so just left 😅
I’m so so glad! Yeah literally I was exactly the same but now I know how to use it it’s great! I hope you get to try it out again xx
Thank you Rebel for this video. I still have one question. What width of design in Photoshop is the most appropriate to have?
Thank you so much I’m so glad it’s helped!!
It is totally up to you. You just need to figure out what width you want your wash it tape to be :) xxx
Hi lovely, did you create the artwork in photoshop or procreate on iPad?
I created it in photoshop, do you have photoshop? If not I think you can give affinity a try :) 🫶🏻🌸
Hi! Thanks for the helpful video! Can you possibly tell us which manufacture you went with to make your washi tapes?
No problem I’m so glad it’s helped! I believe the company has no changed and I’m waiting to find out more once I get the info I shall reply 🥰💗
@@rebeljones Do you mean you got them done with the Dongguan Boyue Color Printing Co? I really like how vibrant the colors look on your washi!
Great video, super helpful
Thank you for this great video; but do you also know how to design the washi in procreate instead of the Photoshop?
Hey yeah just use the same dimensions as I did in photoshop then make sure you use the snap grid option as well!💗
If you have any more question feel free to ask xx
@@rebeljones Oh ok... I'll try it out. Thanks for the reply 🥰
@@K_halmiland I hope it helps but I’m here if you need more help 💗

They are called washi mill :)
@@rebeljones I saw them on Alibaba and wondered if they had good quality washi since they are fairly new. Do you like the quality of the tape and print color?
@@PrintPraySlay yeah most definitely really good quality:)
@@rebeljones thanks so much
@@PrintPraySlay no worries I hope you make some awesome washi :)

Hi I was wondering if you could tell me how much you paid for the 3 designs and 50 per design just so I can get an estimate of how much it’ll cost for the washi tapes I want to make!
Hey Veronica thanks for watching 🥰
I paid around £100 for all three and there were 50 of each x
I always like getting samples in hand before I decide, but have realized how costly that is on Alibaba. Have you ever had any luck getting them to send you samples for a reasonable price, or free is even better lol
Honestly I haven’t :/ BUT I would always give them a message and ask because if you don’t ask you don’t get right? Xx
Hello! How much does shipping typically cost with Alibaba?
Hey, so it totally depends on who you go with and what you order my washi tapes cost around £40 for delivery 💗
@@rebeljones Oh, wow! Thank you so much for replying so fast 😊
@@BigBellyCat thank you so much for watching and I really hope it helps 🥰💗
