You made some beautiful tapes, but there seemed to be a lot of work to accomplish the end result. I've been searching for ways to make my own "tissue tape". I've found several sites that create the decorative "tape/paper" (as you did) but use double-sided tape to stick the decorated paper to one side, leaving the second adhesive side stuck on some scrap plastic sheeting (such as the packaging from some of the items we buy). I'm going to try that with the heavier paper stock you used! Thanks!

@759Sherry Using a double sided tape is a great idea. Sometimes I love the hassle, though. It's the joy of creating something from scratch...

How can I store my new ready made deco tape?

[CreativityPrompt]

@Bristol67 I just roll it on a non-stick cooking sheet.

@CreativityPrompt It went really well! I am so glad that I tried it! TFS!

@CreativityPrompt I stick them on a non-stick cooking paper and roll it straight, then cut in between each tape piece to make my own rolled deco tape. I hope that helps.
