Japanese decoratve cloth tape

Although this is not, strictly speaking, a piece of decorative paper, I find it so beautiful that it would be a shame not to feature it here.

This is a strip of Japanese decorative tape. It consists of a strip of cloth, with an adhesive backing, much like a sicker or roll of scotch/duct tape. What sets it apart, however, is the extremely attractive pattern printed on it. It consists of flowers and leaves with a red background, and gold outline.
